I used bing chat (supposedly using gpt4) and it was far more annoying than openai free chatgpt (supposedly using gpt3.5)

Somehow Microsoft found a way to make it worse?

Agree, prefer to pay for chatgpt then using Microsoft’s free crapware.

Of course they did. That ought to be their slogan. "Microsoft: finding a way to make it worse since 1975"

Yes, I wonder why is so difficult for people to understand this. Microsoft wants to make your life worse, even when they have good software.

I find it hard to believe that they WANT to make my life worse.

I think that they are simply ok with making my life worse if it makes their life better at all.

exactly.. its not very usable. They don't even have to innovate anything. just copy ChatGPT interface and display the results.

I have access but don't have a box with Edge running on it nearby to use it. What about it was worse? A few friends tell me that uniting chat with the LLM makes it hallucinate a lot less and makes it easier to check its work, but they only used it a couple times.

I'd pay Microsoft monthly if they'd just give us untethered gpt-4 access, the same from the API, for those of us on the waitlist. I don't care if it wants to marry me, haha - I think being able to maybe full around with the settings could make it play nicer too.
