What We Like

Image generation built in with DALL-E 3
Massive plugin and GPT ecosystem
Most widely supported AI — integrates with everything
Free plan is actually useful
What to Watch Out For
Can be inconsistent on complex reasoning tasks
No real-time citations — can hallucinate facts
Context window smaller than Claude or Gemini
Getting crowded with features — can feel overwhelming
