ChatGPT is a flaming commie!  I don't trust the sneaky bastard for a minute!
GPT would be the card-carrying variety, if AI could carry cards.  I
completely see now why AI is considered such a huge existential risk to
humanity and I brutally retract all the good things I ever said about it.
Now, I will WATCH that pinko software.

On the other hand, it is a most entertaining toy.  It has made me laugh many
times in 2023, as well as informed me about a lotta science stuff outside of
my specialty areas.
