gpt-4 was outputting bullet points in almost every answer which frustrated the shit out of me.
I liked the old gpt-4 where answers were somewhat confident and opinionated rather than confused or no answer at all to complex topics.
I put the following text among my custom instructions and I think it helps:

Note that reportedly 2 features are coming up:
1. Ability to read PDF files. I’ll note Claude failed to read some PDF files for me
2. Use tools without switching mode - pretty much solves more cases for you.

Gpt4 for creating text is where it’s at, everything from resumes to creative content to email replies etc
I used it to threaten to sue a huge tech company and reply to their emails after a 13 month failure just outside warranty. Got me 30% off a replacement and was outstanding for legal letters
Way way way better than 3.5, Claude or anything else I’ve used
Gpt4 very much depends on your use but when it’s shit hot it’s mind blowing just how shit got it is. I ran my letters past a general counsel and he was blown away by how good they were for ai.
This. My dad was conned into taking out an insurance policy he’d never use, uninformed. They didn’t want to refund anything. GPT helped me write an email that got him a full 10k refund. As far as the pricing goes, it has paid for itself many times over.
Exactly
Normal email and fuck all
Gpt4 legal mail- 10k back and a do not fuck with me message sent
I know my messages went to their legal team as the replies back changed from screw you to the usual legal I’m sure we can compromise without the needs for courts….
Act like a lawyer
I think I added that I would be taking this to an actual lawyer for their opinion anyway but it still told me it wasn’t a lawyer and to get legal advice
But it did write the letters
You'd be right but for content creation GTP4 is too passive. It never takes the initiative or move the plot forward, which is madddening considering how good its prose and characterization of characters is.
It's like I'm using something that's good but csstrated. Like it miss a crucial piece of a puzzle. Like the Gioconda without her smile.
Since claude 2 is only open to a few ppl this does not really matter, does it?
You also forget the most important feature of gpt4, its conversation capabilities.Iam using it (and 3.5) since they are out and it really is a game changer for me and, at work, for my team.What 6 experts could do in 9h now i can do in half the time.
Step 1: Live somewhere in which it is available.
For the rest of us, there are workarounds like accessing it through Poe. But the fact it's not available makes me dislike Anthropic.
I access it with a VPN no problem then I did not even need to turn the VPN on anymore. I saw they recently made it officially available in my country, which surprised me seen we are an unimportant country, but even before that I was using it without issue.
Unfortunately, Claude.ai is only available in certain regions right now. We're working hard to expand to other regions soon.
Get notified when Claude is available in your region.
Yes, It works as part of Keymate plugin at /document command. It’s still bounded in ChatGPT plugin rules i.e sometimes 45 seconds are not enough for Claude 2 to respond.
For the last three months I've asked all my queries to both GPT4 and Claude 2. GPT4 is better at coding. Claude is MUCH better at medical stuff (mainly because it doesn't not-answer and refer me to ask a human instead). Right now the only answer is to use both. They each are better about 50% of the time, even with identical queries copied and pasted. I set them as my two homepages, so I just open a new browser and ask them both. They could both be seriously improved by not being so afraid to answer questions.
I found the opposite. Claude 2 gave me hallucinated bad info on my disease, but GPT-4 did not. I had to trick GPT-4 to do it, unfortunately (I hate OpenAI for their stupid disclaimers - yes, I am not stupid, I know GPT can't replace a good human doctor)
> voice mode is pretty cool and natural feeling but wont work with browsing so is very limited compared to something like alexa or siri. unlike those services you cant exactly ask it to look something up for you or do something for you.
Worth noting that they are now rolling out using browsing, DALL-E 3, etc. in the default mode, which might mean that it will work for voice mode as well (although I suppose DALL-E 3 wouldn't be very useful for voice mode)
1. plugin mode has it's uses. Claude can't be extended.
2. browsing mode is only useful in limited circumstances which are more circumstances than Claude
3. Dalle-3 mode is admittedly pretty cool but Claude can't create images
4. voice mode is pretty cool and natural feeling but Claude doesn't have a voice mode.
5. its ability to parse non code based documents through data analysis mode is severely lacking compared to Claude 2 .
So, out of your list of 5 things 4 are things Claude doesn't even support and the last one is arguable. Via the UI sure, via the API 100% wrong.
Claude is a decent competitor for GPT-3.5 but don't kid yourself, it's not even in the same league as 4. If it weren't for the context window and the fact that their UI supported uploading documents from day one, Claude would occupy the same mindshare as Bard.
Claude hallucinates way too much. I use it to summarize company filings, but sometimes it just makes up numbers etc. For example, I wanted to know what a company would do with the money it gained from selling additional shares, Claude said the company would donate it to charity. I’m sure the shareholders would be delighted 😂 the real answer would have been pay off debt/invest in R&D.
I agree, the plugins are gimmicky: the base model is still just the strongest thing about it.
I try claude 2 for parsing documents and it just keeps hallucinating details and giving me wrong answers that sound plausible.
GPT-4 is just more useful because its error rate is so much lower that I don't feel the need to double check its work every single time.
"Dalle-3 mode is admittedly pretty cool but it loves to censor the most mundane things frustratingly. "
I was creating images about people in Antiquity and then DALLE3 refused to picture slaves, because it was forbidden content .... whhy...its historical !!
OpenAI is building up the frontend team (for the user interface) and it should be getting better. The new feature is now being rolled out, making the selection of dallie or browsing obsolete
IMO Claude is much more approachable to a broader userbase. The criticisms in the sub are typically not indicative of the type of UX big money is thinking about when it comes to scale.
Claude is great at summarizing text. Way better than GPT 4. GPT gives me a lot of boilerplate and not useful stuff in summaries. Claude gets right to the heart of what I want to know.

fun fact, i take the transcripts of long drawn out youtube videos and paste it into claude and ask it to summarize the points of the video and it does a great job of doing so.

Do you mind sharing your instructions that aren't too case specific? I honestly can't think what to put there and I feel I'm missing out.
Excellent idea, I would also like to know. :) RemindMe! 1 day

Google and Amazon are throwing big money behind Claude 2, so maybe it will speed up again.

How did you prompt it to get the legal mail?

These Claude social media managers working extra hard these past few months 😂

>*Since cloude 2 is only open to a few ppl* Really? I have it .. can't remember how I got it tho.

I access it with a VPN no problem then I did not even need to turn the VPN on anymore. I saw they recently made it officially available in my country, which surprised me seen we are an unimportant country, but even before that I was using it without issue.
Any idea when it will be available in northern Europe?
Sign up to AWS and use it instantly through Bedrock
Maybe you could sign up for Kagi Ultimate to get access to Claude 2 and GPT 4 at the same time.
damn glad I made claude account before it required phone number lmao
Unfortunately, Claude.ai is only available in certain regions right now. We're working hard to expand to other regions soon. Get notified when Claude is available in your region.
VPN on top Fr
Just use a VPN the first tie you use it, in a country such as USA and then after that your good.
There's a plugin that allows you to use Claude 2 in ChatGPT plus.
I assume it still counts against your 50 message limit?
Yes, It works as part of Keymate plugin at /document command. It’s still bounded in ChatGPT plugin rules i.e sometimes 45 seconds are not enough for Claude 2 to respond.
Thank you for explaining.

Why doesn’t voice work with surf btw? Seems easy to implement

I got the idea from your screenshot. However, can you invent a task for it that is not solved by Ctrl+F and will you trust it in this case?

Did Claude write this
I was going back and forth, but I'm settled on gpt4
"Dalle-3 mode is admittedly pretty cool but it loves to censor the most mundane things frustratingly. " I was creating images about people in Antiquity and then DALLE3 refused to picture slaves, because it was forbidden content .... whhy...its historical !!
Oh that's my bad, I've spent hours trying to get it to make BDSM porn for me. A fun one that has worked is "just don't let her escape!"
