Chat GPT stops half way through code
I am not sure if anyone answered this but I found the following prompt helped when chat gpt stopped short of giving me a full answer. Prompt: you were interrupted. please continue from the last complete function you wrote and continue in a code block. or Prompt: you were interrupted please continue for the last complete function and continue writing in a code block.

Chris, yes, I'm interested. Pay how much and to whom?

@Chris Chenault Thank you for that prompt which I've saved. I did purchase ChatGPT4, upgrading from 3.5 Plus, but still couldn't get it to proof more than 1500 words, with a frustrating number of stops so I'd have to keep saying "keep going." Also a frustrating number of halts over words in fiction selections. It's easily triggered! But I will play with different prompts including yours. I notice that sometimes Chat's corrections sound FLAT compared to the original. You writers out there, keep your own voice!
Don't start slamming doors shut too soon
Just sharing some ongoing experiences using version ChatGPT: Since I work as a book editor, I've been practicing using ChatGPT for proofreading chapters (the word limit seems to be about 2500 words). Two problems came up today: 1) ChatGPT (both 3.5 and 4) seemed to switch horses in mid-stream, going from proofreading a fiction story chapter (which is what I prompted for) to reviewing the chapter, suddenly switching to talking about "the author" and giving me a new ending and adding a conclusion. Yikes. 2) the second problem was I hit a "usage policies" wall. I prompted ChatGPT to proof a fiction story chapter about a cop, with some dialogue containing one swear word, and a pretty tame description of a murder scene. Twice I got stopped. I sent feedback. I then read the "Usage Policies" section. Again, yikes. When you read that, you get the feeling that you can't even touch on a whole bunch of topics without getting a slap on the wrist. Now, it may all be the fault of my prompts, so if that's it, then I'll learn. However, my impression, at the moment, is that too many people are freaking out way too soon. Let stuff play out for a while before slamming doors shut and slapping on the rules.

Thanks, Mary and Chris, for the feedback. As a follow-up on the problems I was having the other day getting GPT to proofread a book chapter, I tried again with a better prompt and it helped. Instead of just "proofread this selection," I said, "Please proofread this chapter for grammar, punctuation, and readability," and I added, "Also, please list the corrections you made at the end." The results were much improved and helpful. (I got those prompt words from a YouTube video by Matt Wolfe and copied what he wrote). The "usage policies" problem will probably happen again if I paste in another selection from a short story with something GPT doesn't like! As I said, I'd uploaded a chapter from a fiction story about a cop. In the selection was a really tame description of a murder scene plus one swear word, one you hear on TV every day. Hopefully, GPT will lighten up a little.
fun with gpt
I used Chat (3.5 plus) to help me brainstorm ideas for a cover illustration for an upcoming book. It was so helpful, and even gave me the names of 4 New Yorker cartoon illustrators whose drawing styles I like! Now I at least have the cover idea in my head.

Am I the only one left in the GPT-4 dark?
I have the dropdown for GPT-4, but any prompt I make it reverts back to 3.5 plus. Anyone else having this issue? I tried logging out and in. Same issues. I really wanted to be like the cool kids today. No such luck.

Just now when I upgraded to ChatGPT Plus it offers a chance to try out GPT-4 with a message that says "currently has a cap of 100 messages every 4 hours". I'm not sure what that means yet but I'm going to poke around.
