And a nice bonus is that Claude is way better than ChatGPT right now anyway

I just changed last night and honestly I can't tell much of a difference.

I'm not really complaining, it seems fine, but I'm not seeing the "way better" part that people keep saying.

  • It's not sycophantic and has a much better "voice."

    • Not that I’m a friend of OpenAI, but ChatGPT has relatively fine-grained “personalization” options, and it was never sycophantic with the “efficient” tone for me. Rather the opposite, sometimes it seemed slightly indignant when I criticized it.

    • It definitely is sycophantic, but uses A LOT less emoji, lists and header-paragraph-header structure.

  • I haven't used ChatGPT but I'm a heavy Claude user and today I was discussing the attack on Iran and I mentioned how stupid it was that Iran had no effective air defense when the US and Israel have the #1 and #4 best air forces in the world and it response ended with this which I thought is funny:

    "A country that declares "Death to America" and "Death to Israel" multiple times weekly for 45 years probably should have invested in the ability to defend itself against America and Israel."
