It's not really possible to help without more information about the models you are using, the harness you are using, and how you use the harness.

You haven't even provided enough information for us to know if you are using the right tool. Saying "the model" in relation to an LLM provider that offers several is like asking for help with using a Dewalt or Milwaukee to help assemble an cabinet. Are you cutting, drilling, hammering, screwing?

I'm speaking pretty generally here - the tasks vary, as do the models and the way I access them. The point I was making is that they are inconsistent hour to hour, much less day to day and require a very disciplined mindset to babysit, which is sometimes harder than the actual task in play.

They do "unstuck" me sometimes. There is value in that. But the value is inconsistent - which was my original point.

		Ah yeah, but that's not an AI problem in general. The models are trained on human language and human centered expression. I realized after re-reading, that my comment was more harsh than I intended, I really was trying to be helpful. The first step of asking for help should be asking if you have framed the question or task correctly, that way you build your own understanding of what you are asking the model to help you with. For better or worse, under the hood, the computer is a machine following instructions that largely appear non-deterministic, so if you don't frame the inference request correctly, it just boils down to a GIGO problem. It's probably not what you want to hear, but are you sure you were holding the tool correctly? At least with this tool, you can actually ask it :D
