Hi,

I did the same using multiple LLMs in the past
few weeks. Until ChatGPT degraded, they phased
out the old models, and its now only 5.x.

You get the effect of 4 eyes see more than 2 eyes.
Now its for ChatGPT 5.x. kind of 1 eye and 1 eye-
patch, plus completely brain amputated.

Bye

P.S.: Maybe the best AI application is this here:

Does your cat bring home “gifts” too?
