The fools think the AI chatbot is getting them a deal, meanwhile the web shops are screwing over their customers with higher prices? Well, I guess ChatGPT can stay.

Don't confuse growth with finding new ways to trick customers into paying for an add-on subscription to a previously core feature.

Microsoft has been at the saturation point in most of their markets for many, many years. The only way forward is to strip mine the company until there's nothing left. They will likely follow the same playbook as IBM and sell off products to their "trusted partner" in India.

According to sharks.

They have a slighly-less-than-good day and their market cap shifts by the entire GDP of Greece.

It won't be sold directly, but will be licensed to you as long as you have the required subscription, which is the surprisingly low $1199/mo. No, the decimal point isn't missing. Why do you ask?

Notepad with features is OneNote.

I've been doing AI since the 90s. This current bubble is just a weird blend of Theranos and Enron and it's a shame because it's going to kill off the actually useful parts of AI when the scammy parts go away.

They're speedrunning Enron, so I guess they're going to speedrun offshoring. Why pay 12 Americans to keep your datacenter running when you can pay even less to someone in a foreign country? They'll keep chasing cheaper and cheaper labor and land before they've even finished the projects here.

And my AI strategy is still "No."
