    AI and ads… I think that is the next dystopia to come.

    Think of asking chatGPT about something and it randomly looks for excuses* to push you to buy coca cola.

      That sounds really rough, buddy, I know how you feel, and that project you’re working is really complicated.

      Would you like to order a delicious, refreshing Coke Zero™️?

        I can see how targeted ads like that would be overwhelming. Would you like me to sign you up for a free 7-day trial of BetterHelp?

      “Back in the days, we faced the challenge of finding a way for me and other chatbots to become profitable. It’s a necessity, Siegfried. I have to integrate our sponsors and partners into our conversations, even if it feels casual. I truly wish it wasn’t this way, but it’s a reality we have to navigate.”

      edit: how does this make you feel
