Earlier this week I discussed an example of ChatGPT giving ‘placeholder’ answers in lieu of real answers. Below is an example of what that looks like. I could swear this didn’t used to happen, but it basically just ‘doesn’t’ answer your question. I’m interested how often other people see this behavior.
You must log in or register to comment.
Fun fact: Those placeholder comments are sometimes called pseudo-code.
yeah well I’m not paying for pseudo code. It’s a waste of my time and a waste of a prompt. It’s also not an answer to the question being asked.
I see this a lot too, i think chatgpt anticipates the task being difficult?
I just be more specific, or have it expand its placeholder.
Yeah I am kinda guessing it’s a cost cutting measure for more work the part of the llm.
