Does anyone use ChatGPT or another AI ?

[Airbrush]

After I discovered ChatGPT, I asked it a lot of questions, maybe 100, and it was interesting to see the answers, often in great detail, and most of it seems true.  It's not perfect but can answer any simple question that has a generally accepted answer.  Recently, ChatGPT stopped answering my questions.  I know it cost to have unlimited access.  I had a limit to how many questions I could ask in one day.  But now days have gone by and ChatGPT continues to ignore me.  Anyone know about ChatGPT?

urns out SFn is also an AI.
We'll be ignoring you here, also.

Weird. I use it, haven't seen such issues.

Maybe try clearing the cache or refreshing the page?

They periodically role out new versions so that may have caused some trouble.

Would also try with another browser.

I’ve moved on to other models

I never bother using ChatGpt I tried it when it first came out and found it rather lacking in accuracy on more complex physics problems that require more than being a search engine.

Math is hard for language models but there are a few that do quite well now. The version you tried is like a Wright brothers plane versus the versions out now being more like the jets we fly around today

What do you mean ?
The crashes are much bigger ?

Much more capable in nearly every regard

I use Brave Search and its AI/LLM (Mixtral 8x7B and Mistral 7B)will knock out an answer and provide the website pages it drew its information from on the bottom. I see it as a more sophisticated Google page. I find it an OK starting point for queries.

Really only needs to write equivalent bit of code now, and solve math problem that way.

Typically use it more for open-ended subject exploration myself though.

Thanks for the advice.  After a few days, ChatGPT is now allowing me to ask questions again.  It is FREE, and I can ask it any question that has a generally accepted answer.

Which version of AI do you consult with?  How much does it charge you?

I explore multiple models and haven’t paid for any. For ones that are free for everyone, Gemini and Metas Llama are excellent

Nothing.

ChatGPT, go-to model for private tasks and for some work. (using paid version; see official price on their web) Some examples:
-General exploring of LLM and what their capabilities and limitations are
-Getting a second opinion when helping my kids with homework; taking a picture of a problem and asking for different approaches. 
-Using plugins, for instance "@Wolfram" for mathematical results by using Wolfram alpha
-Loading a few (public) papers and asking for comparisons, differences or if a statement is supported by the papers or not
-Building GPTs to explore what kind of ecosystems that may or may not emerge in the world of GenAI.  

Copilot (licensed by employer)
-Work, especially any work that needs access to corporate data or that is intended for use in a commercial context

Local installation of Stable Diffusion or Flux.1  (free, not counting local hardware)
-Image generation

Local installation of Llama 3.1 (free, not counting local hardware)
-Experiments with text; comparing to larger models, testing the limits of smaller local models 

 

For some tasks, such as organising a workshop or preparing a seminar I may use combinations of the above models depending on the context and the points I want to illustrate.
