What a bizarre example of a more direct answer. Any human would simply say “No, it doesn’t rain here in summer.”

Even after identifying the 0% chance of rain, it still drags the conversation on and on and on

Would you like to know more? Seriously though, of course, it's tuned for maximum engagement, not maximum efficiency. I wonder how long this engagement dopamine circus can last... too long apparently.

GPT models were RLHF'd to death, they will never give a final, direct answer. Every release since the GPT-4o catastrophy is like this, it's so tiresome. They need a complete reset before it can become actually usable again. Or not as maximum engagement seems to be their goal.
