I am working on a story and I really suck at math so i turned to chatgpt to help me figure something out. My story involves a wood nymph who is gonna be part of a human families life for several generations and i knew what age i wanted her in the 'modern age' of the story so i fed chatgpt some info and asked it to tell me how old I should say she is when she first met the family.

It fed me like 12 paragraphs trying to figure this out and then declared the wood nymph had never been born in the first place.

I'm not that worried.

Which version of GPT was this?

It was very shortly before they rolled out the paid version

The difference between 3/3.5 and 4 is an order of magnitude

And it still not perfect and does require knowing how to prompt well but fully agree, 3.5 is a toy, 4 can get real work done saving a lot of time.

Plus, it's not the only LLM available.
