It writes my most boring emails so that I can save a scrap of mental energy for parenting properly after work. Even though my WPM ranges between 70-90 with >98% accuracy, I would rather save some of that mental energy to respond more thoughtfully as a dad.

Of note, I do not give one cold shit about GPT's "growth". It's a linguistic power tool that needs to be carefully handled if you use it for any valuable work.

    I mean, if you like the platform, it's growth is tied to its continued existence and free usability. Still in the honeymoon phase as long as it's growing.

    Why is growth tied to continued existence?

    Because companies insist on it and when growth stops they'll start to cannibalize their own company and charge more money for things that used to be free or fairly-priced until they price themselves out of the market entirely and die as a service.

    Yay, capitalism!

    Capitalism demands that number must go up.

    Rather human psyche wants that, it's scary to invest. There are still rare mom&pop stores\cafes which make sense economically for their owners. And there are individual artists.

    What is visible now is a bit like colonial companies, it will end, until the next such thing.

    "Capitalism" is a very variable thing.

    Just wanted to say that "GPT" is a general term and not just a name. OpenAI tried to trademark it but couldn't because of that. It's as if Nintendo was trying to trademark the word "Kart" because of "Mario Kart".
