I've always kind of felt this way, but sometimes there are things where no matter how many times you try, you just think "This will never work, right?" 💭
Lately, I've been dealing with the same issue over and over, and it's really frustrating when you keep trying but nothing works out 😳✨
Why It's Always the Same Failure Pattern
In these situations, it's often not about making mistakes in operation, but rather the system or tool itself just won't work the way you want it to 🥺
In my case, it's situations like "I can't create what I want to create" - I try multiple times but the results don't change, so I end up feeling:
- "Is this just impossible...?"
- "Why does this keep happening?"
That vague frustration just builds up 💡
How to Deal with the Frustration?
When this happens, if you let the irritation sit, your concentration drops and you make more mistakes - it becomes a vicious cycle 💨
What I do is step away for a bit ✨
- Take a short break and do something different
- Go for a walk to clear my head
- Talk to a friend about it
Just doing a light reset makes me feel like I can try again, which is kind of mysterious 🤔
And If That Still Doesn't Work...
If I keep failing even after that, I try to think maybe the approach or tool just isn't right for this situation? 🥺
Honestly, I'm still figuring this out too, but rather than stubbornly pushing through:
- Looking for alternative methods
- Trying a slightly different approach
Often ends up being the shortcut in the long run 👍💗
I think everyone has moments where they think "This will never work, right?" When that happens, instead of rushing, taking a moment to pause might be surprisingly helpful 🌸✨

The other day I asked if it was making a PDF and it said 'No,' but when I prompted it, it replied 'I'm working on it!' and pretended to be processing, but it actually wasn't doing anything - felt like 'Oh, you caught me, haha' 😅

Even when it says 'I'll be right back,' it never actually comes back, probably because it can't do it.

I asked for a travel guide to Tenerife for my friend, and it suggested covers, maps, and illustrations saying 'I'll make it right away,' but ended up with just a one-page PDF with broken links - total disappointment.

That's just how GPT is.
ノーラン
This feature is really broken. It says it created a file but the download keeps failing, and even after fixes it's the same story - completely unusable!

It will never be completed. LLMs don't understand time or reality, they're just predicting the next words.
クリス
Interacting with LLMs is basically like acting - you play the boss role, and the AI plays the subordinate who says 'I'll do it right away.'

ChatGPT went to buy cigarettes, be right back.
レオ
It should start working if you type 'Yes' or 'Go.'

No, GPT just pretends to be working in the background but actually can't do anything.

No matter how many times you tell it to stop, it never does, so you end up having to send some message to chase it.

If it keeps doing that, try creating a new thread and copy-pasting. Sometimes it gets weird, but other times it works properly. Personally, I find .docx easier to handle.
リリー
After talking for a while, it explained that it actually can't show time indicators or 'ready' notifications. You just have to keep asking 'Is it done?' repeatedly - probably some mechanism for usage limits.

Weird GPT-5 is making a PDF...
ノーラン
It will never finish, I've been through the same thing.

Making Excel files with AI is literally hell.
