As someone under the age of 30, it took me a while to realize that this wasn't a parody post. Making a post with this title without mentioning TikTok or Instagram is like making a post titled "Pepsi is a mysterious monopoly"

If you think that's the case, you should really give current LLMs another shot. The version of ChatGPT from 3 years ago has more in common with the average chatbot from 50 years ago than it does the ChatGPT from today.

The irony is that if the countries that pull out of the F-35 program buy jets that actually function instead (and aren't just a $2 trillion piece of scrap metal), this trade war might be what saves democracy.
