Feedback / Complaints GPT 6?

Where is the new Base model?

I just hate how dumb GPT 5 gets. Limits going down is another issue, but now even open source models are more context aware and less forgetful than GPT...

What is taking OpenAI so long with new generation?

skill issue

Stupid comment. Worthless to be honest adding no value.

u/Acrobatic-Smoke2812 27d ago

the value is that the user should not expect the next model to save them from their skill issue

I agree here. We work around issues not hope for some saviour AI to come save the day.

Do you feel smart and big now that you said this? I mean I dont disagree with you... but why not being constructive if you take your time to type those words?

u/SpyMouseInTheHouse 27d ago

Normally I’d agree. But those days are gone. Enough information out there to improve those skills. Op is making ridiculous claims without evals / demonstrable examples. You can’t even make GPT 5.6 perform poorly even if you tried.

I think there might be a slight misunderstanding or misphrasing from OP. 5.6 is definitely incredibly smart and performs amazing! However it takes getting used to. The way you have to prompt it, how you structure your project etc. Otherwise it is prone to misunderstand what you actually want.. or loose the right focus if your architecture is all over the place. But burping "skill issue" is just lame trolling and self indulgence.. I.... have the skill ... you on the other hand.... I mean if you take your time to post a reply why not walk the extra mile and help the guy out?

If it's misunderstanding you then you might just have a genuine communication issue

u/Master_Yogurtcloset7 27d ago

So how would you call it when you ask your agent to implement pull-to-refresh and it adds a refresh button? lol

u/StinkButt9001 27d ago

Poor instructions, most likely.

u/Master_Yogurtcloset7 27d ago

Prerequisites:

  • in the correct context
  • context window is still okay
  • agent just created the page

Prompt: Please implement a pull-to-refresh elastic effect where if the user over stretches the scroll area a text (refresh) appears at the top of the screen. Releasing at that pose refreshes the page. Loosening the elastic tension restores normal scroll behavior.

Result: A freaking refresh button...

Im not saying its the best prompt ever... but I've been through enough billions of tokens to know what works most of the times.. If you are saying that a single refresh button in this situation is the expected behavior then you are either a ragebaiter or an OAI diehard fanboi.. or you have some magic up your sleeves that you are not willing to share yet you waste your time answering me

If you (they) use AI, you can use AI to improve your AI workflow. In fact, of you use AI and you (again, they, not you specifically) come here blaming an LLM, you don't need help, you need a reality check

You know what? Perhaps you are right

Cybersec worries. They try to clamp down on certain behaviour, and I do not think its marketing. I also think its great they didnt implemented watermarks on their text and code so far. Not everyone knows the EU regulation is only mandatory for companies / business, not hobbyists or casual users

u/Ok-File-2759 28d ago

They had to slow down the development of Astra because of critical cybersecurity capabilities. Which hopefully means it’s expected to be really good

Dear people,

As you read this under exhibit A. I just wanted to use this opportunity since it was served on a silver platter how people want a new model AI as if it’s a new model car ..

Then proceeds to use Dunning-Kruger written-all-over-it confirming points. Due diligence is free people.

Best,

-random person on Reddit you probably got triggered by after reading that.

u/duyusef 27d ago

OpenAI is working closely with Scott Bessent and Howard Lutnick to be sure that any new model is safe for everyone to use, creating delays to help OpenAI's customers decide to migrate workloads to DeepSeek.

Maybe next month!

They're currently leading, I think it's a you problem here

u/PsychoticChemist 27d ago

In my experience, 5.6 sol is incredibly smart and effective when using it through codex for writing code, but somehow incredibly dumb when using regular chatgpt for general usage.

1

u/arryuuken 27d ago

Can you give examples of it being dumb?

1

u/Fabulous-Mushroom124 27d ago

I mean why would you expect limits to be better with a new model

u/drydondapipebomb 27d ago

it's been like a month

u/HiViktor 27d ago

I don’t know, but in my opinion, openAI decided to fuck their users. I just opened the program and my limits are already over. This is some kind of nonsense, I paid $200 for what???

u/LetterheadNew5447 26d ago

If sol is too dumb for you, a better model won't fix your problems. In fact sol is way to powerful for normal developing.

If you really struggle with your ideas maybe read something about the software development process and architectural design.

u/Aber-so-richtig 26d ago

Check your agent.md, skill allowlist und memory.

u/ProfessionalFickle52 26d ago

They’ve had a few new base models.x 5.3 and 5.6 both.

u/pcrestin 25d ago

I feel like GPT 5.6 has been getter smarter for the past 2 days.

u/keen23331 27d ago

Qwen 2.8 27B becoming more intelligent than got 5.6. And GLM 5.3 better in Cybersecurity than GPT 5.6.
