The post discusses why product documentation and tutorials from frontier AI labs consistently fail to keep pace with product updates.
The author points out that the remote computer control feature in the ChatGPT iOS app doesn't match the desktop ChatGPT menu and settings instructions. While still usable, many Labs docs suffer from being outdated, hard to locate, and inconsistent.
These issues directly impact user onboarding and highlight the ongoing struggle to maintain documentation amidst rapid iterations of large AI models.
