I'm starting to think I'm incompatible with GPT. Code that's laughably wrong (like sticking in things that aren't even in the language), DM advice that I could get walking down a greeting card isle, and explanations that would get a Wikipedia editor sent to the firing squad.
When I first started messing with it, I was kind of neat and fun. I like making characters so I was using it for like story prompts and general outlines. Some were better than others, but it was neat for some inspiration and fleshing out. I never took it's outputs 1:1.
But when I messed with it again recently. It was a lot worse. Like it ignored parts of my prompt. Like as an example a prompt was about a romance story, but the story was about character A and their family. The love interest character was barely a footnote and could have been removed entirely and nothing would have changed with the story outlines it was giving me.
I thought maybe it doesnt like romance prompts, so I tried less specific and more broad prompts from there, and it was the same thing of just... not outputting what I was asking it to. It got worse and worse and sometimes wouldn't output anything at all.
