Thank you sir, I didn’t know the way to fix ailing welfare states was to make ChatGPT available to all.

It is truly the ultimate technofix.

Oh, they won't be issues. Well be drinking Compute straight from the can, and all our appliances will run on direct Compute inputs. You'll get home from your job earning 10 Compute/hr at the Compute factory, pay the standard 120 Compute charge to unlock your front door, hop onto your Compute Generation Dynamo for an hour to power the oven, and then settle down on the sofa for the evening to see what's on Soravision - discounted to 7 Compute/hr for GPT+ subscribers.

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
