A bit of a vent, I guess

I started using ChatGPT in July of last year. I primarily use it for creative writing. Besides random tone changes after updates and some guardrail pushback on the content I like to write, it has worked really well for me. I tried Grok for a period of time but the writing was too repetitive, formulaic, and robotic. Despite its flaws, Chat’s writing always flowed warmly and naturally. However, about two weeks ago or so, that changed. I finished one story and started another and all of a sudden, the tone was drastically different.
