No clue how it's low effort to point out ads. It's not my fault you and everyone here lacks the product creativity to see the reality that they WILL be embedded in the answers and you will not be able to tell it's an ad. This will result in a literally the best ad system the world has ever seen. They simply need to wait a few years for the general pop to be reliant on them (which if you work with kids surprise they believe everything it says) and then slowly shift this over. They will be the most valuable company in the world bar none.

Do I think it's dystopian and shitty? Yes. Doesn't mean it ain't gonna happen and doesn't mean it's not the right move for the business.

And if an agent were to amass a large sum of Bitcoin you don't think people wouldn't do things for money? Especially if they don't realize they are doing part 1 of 160 parts that get it to the end goal of a virus?

I actually have data on this albeit it's a bit skewed. None of our clients are dev like folk but they are financial folks. We sell financial data for big players so not the analysts (seat cost is over 50k per year) and of our ~10k users within the last 6 months of us launching MCP we have 1500 DAUs on the MCP
