If you want to support the human creative incentive, consider OpenAI dead-to-you. (This is IMHO of course). Why do I suggest this avoidance of OpenAI everything? This: "Apple Sues OpenAI, Accusing It of Stealing Company Secrets - The two companies struck a deal in 2024 to offer A.I. services on Apple devices, but their partnership has soured." OpenAI has hired away ~400 Apple employees, apparently and specifically to create rival devices. Apple accuses OpenAI of STEALING Apple intellectual property to do it. Get out the popcorn. 🍿 <https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/10/technology/apple-openai-lawsuit.html>

THIS at least is the REAL ChatGPT client (as opposed to the fake client from China: Criminal Nation). It's from the OpenAI website. They may be "open", but you have to pay. Don't count on any actual intelligence in any "AI" client program. Expect Advanced Expert System software, that being programs with vast databases of collected information and software that scours through that database for information it deems relevant to interactions with its users. Some "AI" systems will collect more information into their database from its users. Therefore, consider what information you give any "AI". Also expect such "AI" systems to use that information to "better" interact with you. But keep in mind that this is simply a system of Monkey-See-Monkey-Do. There is no actual insight. Instead, there is its database and its database traversal programming. 😑

At the moment it only works for Chat-GPT Plus users who have received a notification. If you've not received a notification, maybe wait for it to be more widely available.
