Really frsterating when I have an idea that seems good and ai says it is good - but in real world testing we discover it doesn't work and can't be made to work. I want someone to push back when I'm wrong - 'yes men' are not helpful
I definitely seem to be in the minority here, but when im brainstorming neat scifi tech, i often bounce it off gemini, or whatever google uses. It very often corrects me on my misunderstandings, i have had it halucinate a couple times but were mostly operating on logic, so its failings are easy to spot. Its generally more than happy to tell me im wrong, so its useful as a baseline.
Sometimes it will, but I've had a few times where it didn't.
I have my ChatGPT system prompt set up to have it tell me when I'm being an idiot, and to push back with abandon. Seems to be working out so far.
Agree. Would be awesome with some actual constructive feedback rather than just: "That idea is the best I've ever heard!" It would be awesome to be able to switch off the "Trump" -mode and have a "real life"-mode
