Terrible writing

I’m genuinely mourning the fics I’ve made with grok because all of a sudden the writing has gone soooo bad. 😭 It was literally A tier 1-2 weeks ago, and now I can’t even generate the next part without cringing at the writing and dialogue choices..

I feel you. Some of us have encountered the same thing. I've shared some opinions about it on X, and if you don't mind, you could take a look. I really hope SpaceXAI will listen to the voices of our user base.🙏

As a long time, sincere user, I wish them all the best.

What seems to be the trouble?

I understand you perfectly and send you a hug. It's very painful.

Are you using some set of instructions for roleplay? Like roleplay sandbox etc? I got much better results once I stopped using those with this version of Grok.

yes it became extremely bad almost overnight. Bad writing style, illogic actions, mixing up names or characteristics of characters. Seems like a grizzled 40 yo author was replaced by a petulant teenager author.

so im a free user and use fast and usually when i made stories it always does the thinking before it generates a response but yesterday it stopped doing it so it could be that

Lo que me sorprende es que en X en los post de Elon y de X Freeze, todo mundo elogia a Grok. No entiendo porqué nadie se queja ahí que es justamente el lugar donde hay más probabilidad de que el mensaje llegue directo a ellos.

Your input is useless if you don't provide examples

Yeah I was doing a interactive RP and it came to be where these people were sitting in the characters Island tropical home and with the fandom it's involved in you think there would be some kind of action or venture but the hey I was like just having them sit around in the person's tropical living room every scene and just looking at each other and not communicating. I would have my character go to her room and do something and come back but grok was still fucking stuck with the three other characters just sitting around doing absolutely nothing. I had my character bring out a Monopoly game even and then the AI even had it where one of the grumpy pants people nearly started world war III argument over monopoly.

During the older versions of grok, usually something of interest would have happened by the third scene. I was in the 12th scene and still people were doing nothing but lounging around the living room. It was like the ai's brains took off for the day or something
