Good luck OpenAI. ChatGPT is hot garbage compared to other models.

I regret it every single time I try to use it for anything useful because it always runs me around in circles that end up completely missing the mark.

I tried to have it help me figure out how to make a jc141 linux game work on my setup yesterday. I spent about 1 1/2 hours on it as it tried and failed so many things and then eventually just got stuck in a loop of telling me the same exact failing steps over and over.

I swapped over to Mistral which had similar issues of not comprehending the issue and what was already tried and failed.

Then I gave MiniMax a try and it was able to quickly and easily see what I had already tried, what failed, and then nailed the solution in about 3 minutes with clear concise directions that will forever allow me to play these jc141 games without making any breaking changes to my setup.
