Frustrated subscriber documents 9 ChatGPT errors in 24 hours and cancels
Decent-Grocery-8129 · reddit · 2026-10-18
A Reddit user details ChatGPT quality issues: 9 errors in 24 hours, 5 serious. Examples include confidently reporting oil at $67.50 when it was $105, and volunteering a wrong stock price, only finding the correct figure after being told to check Investing.com. The user's core complaint: the model confidently delivers wrong facts, never self-verifies, and every error was caught by the user, not the model — apologies follow, then more mistakes. They cancelled the subscription, arguing a paid productivity tool shouldn't require constant supervision.
