Thank you sir, I didn’t know the way to fix ailing welfare states was to make ChatGPT available to all.

It is truly the ultimate technofix.

Instead of Universal Basic Compute, where everyone gets a slice of GPT7’s compute and is about as useful to the average person as a waterproof mop, there should be Universal Basic Income, where everyone gets a guaranteed stipend so they aren’t required to work in order to have a quality existence, and would, to the average person, be about as useful as clean air.
