I’ve been using ChatGPT for a while, and I’ve noticed that sometimes it just stops mid-sentence or mid-response. It’s a bit frustrating because I don’t always get the complete answer I’m looking for.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a reason why ChatGPT might cut off responses? Are there ways to get around this or ensure that I get a complete answer?
Simply type “continue this code” and copy and paste the final few lines; I find that this works rather reliably.
There are a lot of people utilizing this for free, thus there will be a lot of competition for bandwidth. There won’t be a regular “hard cap” prior to interruption. You may receive a response for a few paragraphs at a time before being cut off, or you may receive a full page without any interruptions.
Alternatively, you can code with Github Copilot rather than a generic chatbot; it will be more enjoyable. Don’t get me wrong, ChatGPT excels at it, but there are superior tools available.
I think it would be better to ask it to write discrete functions that work together. That does mean you still have to do some code design yourself, but it’s still easier. I have the same problem. The bigger the blocks, the more trouble it has keeping the entire thing in its head. All of this is on gtp4.
Thanks for the tips! Using “continue this code” is a great idea for managing interruptions. I’ll also consider switching to GitHub Copilot for coding—it sounds like a more specialized tool for that purpose. I appreciate the insight and alternatives!
I have the same issue. The larger the blocks, the harder it is for it to keep the whole thing organized. I think a better approach is to ask it to write distinct functions that work together. This does mean you’ll still need to do some code design yourself, but it’s much easier overall.
