The most compelling argument for this is that Sam was once a baby raised without ChatGPT, and look how he turned out.
FALLON: “And do you use ChatGPT when raising your baby?"

56 years ago today, the CPD / FBI assassinated Fred Hampton.
Hampton brought together the Black Panthers, Young Patriots (white Chicagoans with southern roots, based in Uptown, who flew the Confederate flag), and Young Lords (Puerto Ricans). The FBI saw (and sees) multi-racial unity as a threat.

Capitalism is incredible. Sorry, former teacher, your retirement fund is gone because 5 guys who've collectively never worked a full hour told the banks to put all the money in the country into virtual girlfriend futures
WSJ: “.. If the AI market blows up, the blast radius would be wide, hitting not only Wall Street firms, but also pensions, mutual and exchange-traded funds and individual investors, because of how debt is often sliced and resold across the financial landscape.”
