I’m confused by this article - I thought ProtonMail already did public key encryption on people’s emails? And where does blockchain fit into this?

  > And where does blockchain fit into this? It’s got electrolytes. Just like ai. Is what we crave. On a serious note this article makes no sense, nor the “feature”.

    I'm pretty sure it was generated using GPT or similar. It is worded as a summary of an article and GPT checkers report that it was likely generated.

      > GPT checkers report that it was likely generated. I agree it looks GPT generated. However, I would not use an online “GPT checker” as I don’t trust them to be actually reliable at all.
