GPT-3 or 4? Re: reasoning, apparently it gives much better performance if you ask it to write out its thought process step by step (because it has no "internal" thought process; it must be externalized).

Yeah, that sounds like a GPT-3.5 problem to me. I wouldn't trust 3.5 to write me an Nginx config, but I'd give 4 a shot at it.

I just tried using GPT-4 to translate a random htaccess file I found to nginx and it seemed to do a good initial job: https://gist.github.com/simonw/8174f653a0c08c120830c56332054...

I tried your prompt and it works with 3.5 too, but I'm not qualified to verify the output (75% of it looks the same to me though).
