   Why does ChatGPT need to know that? That should be illegal.

      Because it's another surveillance adtech company from SillyCon Valley. Duh.

         It turns out that the only way to make money online is ads.

         Nobody is going to pay for ChatGPT. They'll just use the ad-infested version, like they do everything else online. Well some people will pay, but not enough to justify the insane amounts of money being poured into it by investors.

            Governments will also pay for the tracking capabilities, as they're already doing to Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc.

               Yes, I should have said "ads and tracking" good point.
