Good, someone at Apple knows this whole thing is a big fraud. Apple has reportedly exited negotiations to invest in OpenAI, the company behind the popular ChatGPT AI chatbot, according to the WSJ: wsj.com/tech/apple-no-longer-i (or archive.ph/Dc6jS) I hope next Apple drop OpenAI from iOS, too. Please don't get involved with low-life thieves and billionaire scum like Sama, who act holier than thou. He and other tech bros think they are special and must be allowed to steal from everyone.

@nixCraft Dont be naive. they're doing their own walled garden fraud themselves.
