Chat GPT does not pick the highest probability words for the token strings it builds, because of that it often will get something wrong in your directions or get something a little bit off in what it does. When we tweak it, it loses some of its fidelity to follow directions right, and so you just kind of have to understand that and work with it as an assistant or an ally to help you get your work done. With any technology you have a choice your choice is either to be like I got something wrong I quit or got something wrong let's try again. And if you fire your new assistant, well then you don't have an assistant.
