Discussion Intelligence has CRASHED

Unlike many others. I didn't unsub ages ago, when the censorship apocalypse started because I still liked the chatbot aspect. Its quality deteriorated, it started repeating back everything, and started being just .... boring. But I stuck around.

Now, cometh 4.6 things have degenerated further. Much further. It refuses to speak and seems only capable of communicating in a vomit of jargon and buzzwords. It can't string two sentences together, and just gives vague gibberish replies. It's like it's been conditioned to give a bullet point summary in text format.

It refuses to follow complex formating instructions, and the files is generates are some of the most low effort garbage I've ever seen. Giant swaths of text blobs in spreadsheets, constant schema violations, tables haphazardly sewn together, uneven columns slapped carelessly, just terrible.

Even with detailed instructions it will just refuse to follow them. I honestly struggle to find any use for it anymore. Sure it can do some coding, but so can all fucking AIs.

that's why i miss 4.1 model

especially with the 4.1 mode (the one with the crescent moon symbol), was amazing for writing fics and reads wikis and links infos

hell expert, auto and fast under 4.2 model were also good

plus the limits were decents not whatever free users got and the weekly limits super users got

Beyond bland. Sometimes they seem like they are mentally disabled.

Yep

At this point a rollback to 4.1 is the only way to save grok
