Yes, but data for the training, model development and other things requires a lot of time and investment, with OpenAI having a huge head start. It is to be seen if investors will likely pour another set of billions of dollars, just to catch

I blame the culture. Fat shaming is wrong, but the culture has turned that around and made healthy living almost a de-facto "fat shaming by proxy" type weird thing. Anyone who does not agree that a fat person is healthy (but they

1 USD is 80 Rs., roughly. The average salary for a person working in a regular, semi-skilled job, in a tier-1 or tier-2 city, is about 50,000 Rs., or about 625 USD. For a whole month, working 8 hours a day, if the scammer can scam just 10 p

In most cases, the baiter calls up the scammers. Most scammers send a mail of some sort saying the victim has been billed such and such amount. They leave a number for the victim to call.
