It seems rather suspicious how much ChatGPT has deteorated. Like with all software, they can roll back the previous, better versions of it, right? Here is my list of what I personally think is happening:

They are doing it on purpose to maximise profits from upcoming releases of ChatGPT.
They realized that the required computational power is too immense and trying to make it more efficient at the cost of being accurate.
They got actually scared of it's capabilities and decided to backtrack in order to make proper evaluations of the impact it can make.
All of the above

They are lobotomizing the softwares ability to provide bad PR answers which is having cascading effects via a skewed data set.
