You need to pay for it if you want access to the latest version of the model, along with some beta features like plugins. Plugins are extremely useful and it is worth paying just to get access to them. For instance, you need to have a certain plugin to get it to read links.
My experience - the free version made up a lot of things but still felt very useful - enough to want to upgrade to the paid version. With the paid version, I notice very rarely that it hallucinates. It does make errors but it can correct them when I provide feedback. It is possible that I just do not notice the errors you would notice, it is also possible that we use it differently. I would like to know.
Paid.
> Would you kindly provide links to a few examples of very fundamental things incorrect?
No, definitely not.
> I notice very rarely that it hallucinates.
Unsure of what "hallucinates" means in this case. Some examples of things I've used it for: docker configuration, small blocks of code, generating a cover letter, proofreading a document, YAML validation, questions about various software SDKs. The outcome is usually somewhere on the spectrum of "not even close/not even valid output" to "kind of close but not close enough to warrant a paid service". When I ask for a simple paragraph and I get a response that isn't grammatically correct/doesn't include punctuation, I'm not sure what I'm paying for.
The term "hallucinations" is now commonly used for instances of AI making stuff up - like when I asked ChatGPT (before I had paid account) to recommend 5 books about a certain topic and two of the recommended books looked totally plausible, but when I tried to find them, I discovered there are no such books. This is where I see a big difference between GPT-3.5 and GPT-4.
>> I get a response that isn't grammatically correct/doesn't include punctuation
What punctuation? If you mean stuff like commas separating complex sentences, my English is definitely not good enough to spot that. But your mention of punctuation reminded me of problems that ChatGPT has with my native language... any chance you are using ChatGPT in a language other than English?
I currently pay for it but I'm not sure if it makes any difference.
Ask it how to use it
