#Using GPT as a Dev (ISSUES)

My day to day usage with this bot is wild. I even stopped using google to search for that matter. Anyways, I code python, js, and flutter. It was all good like 3 months ago until SOMEONE programmed GPT to stop writing full codes. This is my first issue and flutter codes are pretty long too. What happened to the "continue generating" button? Sometimes I have no idea where to insert the new code even with comments provided by GPT. Second issue is that it became stupider in long conversations(on purpose cause gpt5 is confirmed? ehm...) because 3 months ago if I mentioned something I wrote on the first or second prompt in a very long chat, it will easily reply within the context even after days. Now, if I come back a day later and type in the chat, it will act dumb-founded which is annoying!
By the way, configuring your own GPT to do the things I typed above will not work cause the main one is programmed not to I guess. I know that fixing these issues may require more resources or non efficient way of using the current ones, but I think this is an unspoken issue. Thank you.

I have this issue a LOT. GPT never wants to provide the full script, despite the existence of the “Continue Generating” button. It’s not really an issue as long as you just, replace the functions/methods that ChatGPT did, but this is an issue. ChatGPT 3.5 actually does provide the entire script when asked from my experience. I’ve been using it more and more when GPT-4 is just having a bad day.

Yeah, gpt 3.5 does it, but gpt 3.5 is way stupider. I don't know if "stupider" is the right word. I don't want to harass anyone. Both models are way beyond the imagination, but GPT4's codes are more brilliant and thoughtful. I can't just use 3.5 in my projects, etc..

Thank you for speaking on this, I have found similarities in my day to day interactions. It takes serious prompt engineering to convince GPT to complete a class without skipping for brevity.

It’s noticeably terrible with Python though.

Yeah, we can say it will not make a lot of mistakes on C# and Unity cause maybe they are a bit old or because python has too many versions with too many changes. I also noticed that most of GPT4's flutter codes are deprecated which is not a bad deal unless it writes it fully and logically correct.
