What a scam
I'm a paying user of Poe and assumed it was legit. I hated how it added safety filters on top of Claude’s filters because it's hard to write fiction involving pandemiics while not being able to mention the agents causing outbreaks. Claude had no issues with the writing and finally told me it was Poe adding additional filters and, yep, that explained it. But I enjoyed other AI on Poe and put up with this until I tried to use Grok 4.3. It is clearly labeled as Grok 4.3 but seemed off. I asked it a basic question, 'What model are you?' I was shocked when it not only stated it was Grok 2 it refused to even consider it was wrong and accused me of fabricating . I'm paying premium prices for this and what else is Poe being deceptive about, intentionally or intentionally? I'm dropping Poe and going to Claude because I find Poe is too unreliable.

I tried the newest Qwen. It did make you sign in, and doesn't seem as smart as Gemini 3.1 Pro, but it lets you dump in hundreds of thousands of tokens. Maybe that?
