Will I personally find GPT-4 to be useful for something that I didn't find GPT-3 (or ChatGPT) useful for?

YES

I have been very unimpressed by ChatGPT. The only production application I'm considering using it in is correcting grammar of a passage; anything more complicated than that it can get wildly wrong.

I do sometimes use it to figure out the name of a certain concept; it sometimes works for that when Google has failed. But I always have to double-check the term it gives me on Google to ensure it's a real term and it hasn't just hallucinated something.

This market resolves YES if I find GPT-4 to be useful for a task that I didn't find GPT-3 or ChatGPT useful for.

(If I find GPT-4 useful for a task, but then realize that GPT-3 could have done it perfectly well and I just hadn't thought to try it, that's still a NO.)

@IsaacKing explain?

Uploading photos and asking questions about it seems pretty hard to get GPT-3 to do

predicted YES

@IsaacKing resolves YES.

predicted NO

@firstuserhere I have not used it for this

predicted YES

@IsaacKing you should then!

Try using ChatGPT to debug your code. Paste in:

  1. High-level project description

  2. A list of important function signatures, classes with method signatures, brief descriptions of each.

  3. A failing unit test

And ask it to walk you through debugging the test. It works better if the problem is compute/data structure based, than if it's a system problem.

It's not as good as an alert human with experience in a codebase, but it can compete with me when I'm tired or not used to a language or haven't been in a codebase for a couple weeks.

I have entire 1000-line projects I've written where I've not looked at any of the code deeply, and haven't used the language before. But I just keep organized notes and have ChatGPT3 write it function-by-function, and now ChatGPT4 can debug code(and is a bit better at writing too).

@Mira I don't want to give OpenAI money, so I don't have access to GPT-4 yet. Gonna wait until they make it free to test.

@IsaacKing If you want me to relay prompts for you, ask on Discord.

@Mira Do you pay per prompt or is it a flat subscription?

predicted YES

@IsaacKing $20 flat per month for ChatGPT4. There's a limit of 100 messages per 4 hours for GPT-4, but I don't use all of them. I already paid, so it costs nothing extra except my time.

The API is per-prompt, but I haven't gotten access to GPT-4 for it yet.

predicted YES

@IsaacKing "I don't want to give OpenAI money" Is this for ethical reasons?

@ZZZZZZ Yes.

predicted YES

@IsaacKing What's your issue with them?
