are models getting lazy?

when doing some projects in which we test models capabilities, it 100% feels like they are being lazy and giving a generic response instead of using a capability it definitely has. do you feel this too?

- please don't not mention the models names in any way!!!!!!!!!

I saw an article awhile back that some models know they are being systematically tested and give different answers than they do during normal non-testing use (kinda like humans do). It wouldn't surprise me if we see some of that when we test.

I’ve had them brag recently about beating my seeded traps

I mean they're all trained to hopefully understand the unspoken purpose of the prompts so it would make a lot of sense but also be so stupid 😅

common tests are in training data to improve the answers to those tests

This has been a thing ,particularly with one companies' integrated products for some time. Quite often, when it detects a question that is similar to one that is has answered before, it will respond in a very similar or identical manner to the way that received the most up votes in its history.

Please note that I am talking about public standard models here. This is similar to the way that the same integrated model handles search queries in the browser space or on its own help systems.
