I use and have been using chatGPT for programming for months. In the past 48 hours ChatGPT4 has gone from being mostly right to almost obnoxiously wrong. Like it cant remember context even a few chats deep. Is any one else getting this?

I don't know about recent events, or chatgpt4 lately, but i reallly thing it has gotten far worse in the latest months, around the time when issues about protection of jobs against AI and ethical were arising.

I started web development in the last year and was desperately looking for a job, i learned React and Django and was really bad at those as well.
I just got a chance to land a fullstack job near my home, it required Node and Angular, liked my interview and wanted to test me in 2 weeks.

I really put a lot of effort and hours myself, followed documentations and tutorials, but i kid you not, chatgpt got me out of a looot of stupid issues i could not figure out, either syntax, or complete explanation of what i was wrong about, (i really don't like and use copy-paste of its code, just because i needed to learn, not complete the project).

Landed that job with my boss even congratulating me on my assignment and got around with my tasks better than what i used to do with my own code.

Lately I feel it is waaay worse, maybe it's me using it just to find out something i can't already find anywhere else, but it's not uncommon I paste in some code, and he spits out word for word the same thing i'm telling it is not working
