For me it's the opposite; chatgpt (o1 preview and 4o) keep making very strange errors; errors that I even exactly tell it how to fix and it simply repeats the fundamental mistakes again. With claude, I did not have that.
Example; I asked it to write some js that finds a button on a page, clicks the button, then waits for a new element with some selector to appear and return a ref to it; chatgpt kept returning (pseudo code);
while (true) {
button.click()
wait()
oldItems = ...
newItems = ...
newItem = newItems - oldItems
if (newItem) return newItem
sleep(1)
}
which obviously doesn't work. Claude understands to put the oldItems outside the while; even when I tell chatgpt to do that, it doesn't. Or it does one time and with another change, it moves it back in.
