Anyone else having serious reliability issues with artifact editing? I find that the artifacts quite often get "stuck", where the LLM is trying to edit the artifact but the state of the artifact does not change. Seems like the LLM is somehow failing in editing the artifact silently, while thinking that it is actually doing the edits. The way to resolve this is to ask Claude to make a new artifact, which then has all the changes Claude thought it was making. But you have to do this relatively often.

I saw this yesterday. I was asking it to update an SQL query and it was saying, 'I did this' and then that wasn't in the query. I even saw it put something in the query and then remove it, and then say 'here it is'.

Maybe it's because I use the free tier web interface, but I can't get any AI to do much for me. Beyond a handful of lines (and less yesterday) it just doesn't seem that great. Or it gives me pages of javascript to show a date picker before I RTFM and found it's a single input tag to do that, because it's training data was lots of old and/or bad code and didn't do it that way.

Yes every 10 edits or so. Super annoying. It is limiting how often I bother using the tool

I have had the same problem with artifacts, and I had similar problems several months ago with Claude Desktop. I stopped using those features mostly and use Claude Code instead. I don't like CC's terminal interface, but it has been more reliable for me.

It edits it for me but it tries to edit it "in place" where it messes up the version history and it looks very broken and often times is broken afterwards. Don't know why they broke their best feature while ChatGPT Canvas just works.

This has been super annoying! I just tell it to make sure the artifact is updated and it usually fixes it, but it's annoying to have to notice/keep an eye on it.

Quite regularly.

I instruct artifacts to not be used and then explicitly provide instruction to proceed with creation when ready.
