It's also not really that much money given how widely used it is, let alone how much has been poured into it ($3.6bn vs. say, Saleforce's $35bn - and I don't think Saleforce had even 5% of the investment poured into ChatGPT).I expect we'll see a bit of divider as costs are ratcheted up very steeply for users making "serious" use of AI where it can have a measurable and significant benefit to the business, and the vast majority of users who are just it as a slight shortcut to looking up how to do simple tasks may be booted to even more simplified versions (indeed part of 5.0's key design was to boot most queries to more simplistic and often kinda-rubbish models, some of which were frankly outperformed by a Google search, especially before they enshittified Google search).I notice nothing you're saying there actually contradicts what I said either.As for "more money in 1 year than 50 years of the TTRPG" industry, were you trying to find the lowest possible bar lol? I work for a world top 10 law firm and we have more than 12x $300m revenue lol so that'd also be true of us? At least try and find a boast that doesn't sound like "I HAVE THE STRENGTH OF 10 NEWBORN BABIES!!!".</blockquote>
