Original Reddit post

I have been using LLMs and AI tools since the first publicly available OpenAI GPT. I have made multiple agents, fine tuned using RAG and other methods to create personalized agents, and more. I even download open source ones to run locally on my computer. So I’m not some AI moron who works for a nameless, faceless company when I comment on this. I have found that, as of 2025, when GPT and all of the other AI companies released their latest versions, it is difficult to find competency in anything AI puts out except for video and image generation for any AI platform except for Grok. The old agents I used to use in the past have become incredibly stunted. When I try to learn about new topics and use AI to help tutor me on subjects, it uses the world’s most low-information sources available that are rife with factual inaccuracies, or it just plain ignores the prompt and uses its own sources. All except for Grok. I suspect this has something to do with censorship to prevent lawsuits or to capitulate to official government usage by multiple different countries, including the U.S. But I find the latest models of Claude, Qwen, Llama, ChatGPT, and even Perplexity’s RAG to be utterly useless now. It’s like they are unable to follow simple prompts anymore and deliberately ignore what you ask it to do. The only exception is Grok. I ask Grok to do something, and it does it, and does it well. Anyone else having this same experience? submitted by /u/Secret_Assistance601
