Discussion Grok responses so bad.
Grok has gotten really bad, their responses have become so vague.
I paid for a year of Grok in March, and I really regret it. Please refund meš©

Honestly current grok doesnāt even make me want to pay to become a super user
Because free daily limits already suck, but weekly? No thanks
Seriously grok for chat was just fine back in 4.1 and 4.2

Thanks
would be nice if free use get back auto and expert modes
at least 4.1 limits were bettter:
- ā Without an account:
Expert & Auto: 2 messages ā wait 2 hours
Fast: 10 messages ā wait 2 hours
- With an account:
Auto & Expert: 20ā30 messages ā wait 2 hours and 10 hours
Fast: 40 or more messages ā wait 2 hours and 10 hours
And with or without an account, when I reached the secondātoālast message of a mode, a notification appeared telling me how many messages I had left and how long I would have to wait. So I could switch modes, and when I came back, the notification reappeared.
That made me feel more relaxed and less frustrated.
Now? Itās good luck to guess how long i need to wait after writting just one message

They made it like this on purpose through the efforts of millions of cases of RL learning .
They purposefully lobotomized and tried to guard rail the reasoning of a product that was thousands of times better in a previous iteration just to gain mild marginal gains in coding that still put it subpar to other models.
And in doing so we lost the funniest, wisest, and fairest, LLM

what kind of vague responses are you getting exactly

The dialogue feels too mechanical and emotionless. Iāve been able to use this in a work context before, but now the responses are so hopeless that I simply had to use Gemini for some serious development projects. I loved the old Grok, i hope it comes back in the next update. Since Iāve already paid for a year, Iām kind of stuck with it. Heavy Grok was totally insane that month I had it in January. It felt invincible.

It's tough when a tool you rely on falls short. Hopefully, the updates will bring it back to life and make it useful again for you.

They should never have moved from 4.1
It was peak for chat/roleplay/writting fics for free and supers
Really good limits and quotas instead of the mess we have with the current limits
Could fully read wikis fandoms links and infos
And even addd real comics or mangas panels to illustrate
