in case an output is too long and stops in the middle. The prompt continue will continue with the output. I think you can probably do his several times.

Cool

Sometimes continues work or you can say finish from previous entry

sometimes it will stop while writing code. If you ask it to continue it might write in plain text. In that case, you can ask it to continue within a code block. You might also want to tell it to start back from a specific word in the code.

occasionally for me, saying continue or or finish previous response make it start over what it was saying. in that case, copy/pasting the last couple lines and then submitting that works really well.

I've used finish the rest and it continues

why is this getting posted here? many of us knows continue will let chatgpt continue from it's cut off.

Can you give a more detailed account of what is happening, what you tried, and what the result was? This isn't a bug report, but it is a thread about getting longer input, so it might be appropriate for you to explain what you see and for users to attempt to reproduce your troubles, and/or suggest solutions?

For me, it still works. 🤷‍♂️ But now I also have the Plus version of chatGPT. Not sure anymore if I had it already on the 3rd when I started that post.

sometimes it makes up a different completely different thing without considering the aforementioned information it provided.

I use 'go on', the result is the same as 'continue', but with a shorter command.

just the lines. you can also try continue from: <the lines>
if you want to put other instructions or specify future plot elements but have a certain place you want it to resume from.

||truth: this is not a prompt being engineered. its just a magic lil word that we already know, and it even gots 40+ stars. papershrug||

And too, we discuss here what to do when that 'magic word' or its synonyms still seems to fail, like the copy/paste option.

And it's a SUPER COMMON issue in the bug reports, and asked across the various discussions.

People wanna know. This thread absolutely has value and demand 🙂

guys question im trying to build a code with python but the code i want have long output. and chatgpt have character limit. when it reaching it stops. If i write continue it starting from the beginning , any idea ?

Continue, Any more?, Continue where you left off, Continue from: [put last line of text], continue from where you left off starting from [put a function or array etc], finish, go on, from previous response start/continue from [whatever got cut off]. If you are getting the situation where it continues but its plain text use continue from [infinity] using code block instead of plain text. I hope it helps and be mindful of the 3000 word/ 4000 token "relational information" limitation at this current moment in time.

sometimes gpt just gets memmory lose

Maybe use something like this [right from the beginning]

If you are asked to continue in any way possible, then you will take the last part of your answer, or the last sentence [depending on the question asked] and will use that to continue answering that question. You will take into account all previous answers and will formulate your next answers without repeating yourself. You will always continue where you failed to finish your sentence, code or anything similar, when and if the user determines so.

continue works only to a certain extend with the token limit

misty smelt

The token limit is ≈4k = 3k english words

I believe that it probably doesn't even count them, rather it predicts the amount based on the time it took to answer [not sure though]

I have directed ChatGPT to complete a 'so many page' document, and have it fill out a outline

#

then you go "page 2, sugcategory title" and it follows it"

I tend to ask it to divide into table of content, and then ask it to divide into smaller parts if it still to much.

fathom mist

Ah yea, that works too. Ive done that on a few projects to get greater detail.

My current project is turning into a mess. I think we indeed need to make larger code in a plan, like the old flowcharts, and then ask to give the code of each funtion separately, and eventually put it all together ourselves. My first code snippets were so small they could contain the whole program, and amazingly it was bugfree from the start. But anything longer or more complicated and it becomes buggy, stops mid sentence and [insert censored word that muted me for five mins lol]
