ChatGPT does the same thing, to the point that after several rounds of pointing out errors or hallucinations it will say things like “Ok, you’re right. No more foolish mistakes. This is it, for all the marbles. Here is an assured, triple-checked, 100% error-free, working script, with no chance of failure.”
Which fails in pretty much the exact same way it did before.
Once ChatGPT hits that supremely confident “Ok nothing was working because I was being an idiot but now I’m not” type of dialogue, I know it’s time to just start a new chat. There’s no pulling it out of “spinning the tires while gaslighting” mode.
I’ve even had it go as far as outputting a zip file with an empty .txt that supposedly contained the solution to a certain problem it was having issues with.
