Maybe they were not as good at the time, or the contractor just used to use ChatGPT. Also ChatGPT can be used without a phone number registration, unlike Chinese models.
Its happening with me too since around a year. When I ask a solution from one of my senior he just reply by pasting the response from ChatGPT. Now I have stopped asking him.
I also ask ChatGPT sometimes when a junior ask for a solution, but I always explain him in my own words.
I think most of the cost is for handling and collaborating with the government org. As an engineer who worked with Gov orgs before, I can say it is not easy; imagine how many levels of approvals were given to put that site online.
if only that was a solution that was effective. while theZuck may not be able to monetize your eyeballs directly, he can still make his yacht payments off of the data you generate for him free of charge from every other website using his SDKs
Sure, but if we believe the conceit of the article that making some settings within facebook reduces your value to them, stopping altogether must reduce your value even more.
It only reduces the value that they are not serving you ads based on direct targeting based on your metaprofile. They are still going to serve you ads. They are still going to be collecting data about you from all of their products be it their apps where your actively and knowingly providing them that data by how you use their apps, or whether it is through the embedded SDKs in other apps or websites you use and you are not knowingly providing them data by how you use these other apps/sites.
You will never be worth $0 to Meta. The analytics they can glean can be used in other ways than just providing you a targeted ad experience. You're still telling them trends. You're still telling them what someone of your sex, income level, age, geographic location, blah blah blah prefers to spend their time online doing.
He was very humble person , never showed off his wealth, and mostly followed responsible capitalism, these are the reason why many indians see him as an inspiration.
RIP sir
