The whole thing is sham, doesn't matter how illegal, apparently presidents can, at alarming rates, and completely openly to the public now just pardon anyone for anything.

Very good point. I am convinced the only variation of capitalism that can survive the future is a drastic change to always favouring underdog participants somehow. Specific skewing of rules to help new small businesses, personal choice tend

Whyyy would anyone want a system that can even answer made up nonsense based on arbitrary word redefining and wrongness? The whole point is you are distilling past knowledge, if you are making up on the spot nonsense to purposely make all p

The whole dumb problem is that this COULD be fun, but nobody wants that they just want to eliminate wage costs. For instance: Emails could become a short couple of sentences of real information meant for another person, the sender says &quo

The quiet unsaid trick is that they expect you to pay 5x for the service because you need to feed the result back into other multiple models to double and triple check. Another tech year, another growth scam.
