Think about what you just said.

You gave examples of how chat bots are going to be more widely used. Nothing more. So far I don’t see any examples that aren’t overpriced efforts in “shoehorning a chat bot” into something.

Like why will a hospital pay for a bunch of chat bot integrations when it’s likely my ChatGPT phone app will be able to view the form via camera and AirDrop or email the form? Meaning, I still see no examples of why OpenAI isn’t the Bitcoin of the crypto bubble (one use case, with one winner).

You say the only things holding it up are:

- Cost

- Training

Which can be said of any business that’s ever existed. So why is AI different?
