'PromptQuest' is the worst game of 2025 (trying to make chatbots work)

Gen X translator here. This is a user story complaint that product output is nondeterministic.

Interesting spreadsheet example. I have the opposite problem, Gemini insists to bring up the option of placing stuff in my google workspace (most of the time spreadsheets) although I've never told it to.

From the reactions here, we can already infer we're dealing with user error.

Anyone else completely confused about what this article is even about?

Seems kinda like a first world problem to me.

The way I see it, when LLMs work, they're almost magical. When they don't, oh well, it didn't take that long anyway, and I didn't have them until recently, so I can just do things the old boring way if the magic fails.

This article is garbage. I was half expecting or hoping for a nuanced analysis of regressions manifested in a specific leading model as a result of purported "upgrades" but instead found an idiot who doesn't understand how LLMs work or seem to even care, really.

Idiots like this seem to want a robot that does things for them instead of a raw tool that builds sometimes useful context, and the LLM peddlers are destroying their creations to oblige this insatiable contingent.
