I have often been surprised by some GPT4 brilliance after pushing it to think harder in an extended back and forth.
Seeing it recover from a misunderstanding on something complex with an epiphany, and an immediate recognition of all the implications is a joy to behold, as well as useful.
And on occasion, when I have pushed it to correct itself, and it recognizes I am misunderstanding something and checks me, what a time saver!
I particularly like how frequently it provides a concrete example, before making a general statement, when dismissing some math related argument.
Gives me the warm fuzzies to have a bright, curious, tireless, if precocious, “friend” on tap.
I've had experiences performing really well and quite poorly (creating / refactoring code as an example).
But largely I'd say that when you push it beyond a certain horizon it just gets stuck. If you chat with it about truly novel ideas, it's clear that it's limited to its training and not capable of any true internal reflection.
That being said it's a great tool for day to day work and as a rubber ducky type friend.
