This is the worst AI, just in case anyone is wondering. The only thing that's interesting is that you can see it reasoning and thinking before it answers questions.

Otherwise, it's just trash. It makes huge mistakes, it hallucinates often, and it takes more processing power to do those things than other popular alternative AI's.

All LLMs lie, this is why it's important to verify what output you're getting. A GPT is essentially text prediction that has been trained on a very large dataset, think of when you end up sending "ducking autocorrect" in a text. Furthermore, Deepseek has distillations of many models. Which do you have experience using?

Edit: To add even more context GPT and Diffusion models are patently not AI as they are not able to verify what output they're giving. These are all tokens that are fed into a recursive algorithm. They're vector database queries that have reinforced pathing. None of these "A.I." models are thinking or reasoning, yet.
