We can't have hard evidence. It's a SaaS and they own the code and the machine it runs on.
replySo it may be a widespread hallucination. But there's no evidence of that either.
Run a benchmark with a large number of samples, rerun a few days later. Compare results, use statistics to see if there's a statistically significant difference.
replyDoing this in a way that doesn't get you noticed or fucked with is potentially going to be quite difficult.
replyIf they have a "hey we're being benchmarked" mode, which is not hard to imagine, avoiding tripping it is going to be annoying and difficult to prove.
We could still have soft evidence though. Make a Todo app on Monday, and make a Todo app on Tuesday, and see what it makes in comparison.
replyYou would need a significant sample size to make any sort of conclusion from such a probabilistic process. Then there's the issue of how you would actually grade/compare.
replysomeone already does that https://aistupidlevel.info/
replyIt's actually a extremely cool site, and fascinating to view the results off the AI bots i use.
replyYou only need to come up with a catchy "SomethingBench" name, post it on reddit/x and now you're an ai sage. Not to disparage the launch/after comparison though, I'd genuinely enjoy a data point like that
replyThere is a toot from an Open AI person a couple days ago saying they are "pulling all the levers" because of capacity issues. I have no idea what the heck the person is talking about, but I'm guessing there are consequence for those levers.

We're pulling all the levers possible to sustain the demand, but I've not seen anything like it until now and we went through very steep growth before. Priority will always be to keep excellent service for existing users, but we might have to pause new Pro subscriptions for a bit if this continues."Depends on the nature of the levers
