#Why is Chat GPT not listening and lying?

Everytime I asked it to post a specific amount of words not only does it not listen but it lies about how many words because I verify it with Google Docs. It's been doing this constantly and I'm using GPT 4 !

Doesn’t get anymore precise.

That said, the gpt is not a source for truth.

Yeah it's a problem. Maybe you can use something like "600 English words"?

Yes, then it does get less precise.
That is probably because it’s not having any real “word counter” tool inbuilt, not sure.

To write blogposts with a certain amount of words you can ask it to elaborate on some sections.
As otherwise for a large amount of word (precise to the dot) it isn’t adequate.

What’s the use case here?

Also it's worth pointing out that most outputs are limited to 1.2-1.5k tokens max for GPT4.
