It's almost certainly because OpenAI is throwing less computing power at it in order to decrease the cost.
It's enshittification, then.
I mean, they've gotta to be blowing absurd amounts of money at it. It's not remotely cheap to build a massively complicated web service at that scale, and eventually the numbers need to start adding up. I'm sure they have several good monetization plans, but not every instance of a business attempting to stop hemorraghing money is a conspiracy. You'd be doing the exact same thing in their shoes.
Enshittification is not a conspiracy because a conspiracy requires communication and planning. Enshittification is just how idiots act when trying to make money.
And there are more and more offline GPT AIs available for free. Now everyone with an above average computer can have their own chatGPT.
It's still pretty rough to selfhost an LLM. You can get one that's kind of okay on an average computer, but to get a really competitive one running locally at a good speed, you need a huge amount of RAM that is still beyond most average users (VRAM for GPU based projects).
I've been trying to get Vicuna going and the RAM usage is rough, 60gb is suggested, and I've got 64 and I think I need a lot more honestly.
Huh… so after months of being exposed to people that aren’t quite as smart as world class computer scientists and engineers, it gets dumber. Maybe it’s more human that I previously thought.
it gets dumber
In six months, ChatGPT will be talking up Brawndo, because it's got the electrolytes that plants crave.
You think that’s bad? My calculator can’t even finish a simple sentence.
Boobs is a sentence.
It's not, but Bob bobs is.
A single word can be a full sentence, unless answers to either/or questions are not sentences.
Or is this one of those logic things where a train is only a train when the railway engine is connected to something?
A sentence needs a subject and a verb, if I remember grade school. Fun fact: "I'm." is a sentence. There can be an implied "You" in there. Like "[You] Stop!" or "[You] Go!"
The verb can be implied too. "Would you like mashed potatoes or fries?"
"[I would like] Fries."
There's also the joke sentence(?): "This sentence(,) no verb."
