Does anyone think they’re doing it on purpose to profit from short selling stocks? I mean they peddled two sh*tcoins right on Inauguration Day so it doesn’t seem too far fetched they would intentionally tank the stock market as well. It’s hard to see any other angle to this ridiculous policy. If you know where stocks are going you can profit regardless whether they go up or down, and making them go down is easier than making them go up, as a president.

When they are focusing on just being an API provider then they will be in a market with (long term) razor thin margins and high competition - most likely unable to build a deep moat. But if you can shape customers habits to always input "chatgpt.com" into the browser whenever they want to use AI then that's a very powerful moat. Those customers will also most likely be on a subscription basis, meaning much more flexibility in pricing and more rent for openAI (people using it less then what OpenAI calculates for subscription costs).

is this the same thing Avi Schiffmann is peddling ?

I agree the title was a bit confusing. There were actually two separate AI pendant products, both named Friend.

My understanding is that this is one of them, and they changed the name shortly after the other was released.

Edit: ah seems the title has been updated

Not all: only of few of my repos have been cloned.

But it's open sauce, right? Mine are Apache, so this is fine?

As long as I can log in with "hunter2" as my password, it's definitely all fine. %-P

IANAL but the judge can't both reject the plea deal and sentence him, since rejecting the plea deal invalidates the guilty plea. Rejecting it and remanding him to custody would cause a diplomatic incident.

He's not out of the woods yet by any means, but if they reached a deal his lawyers are confident in, I wouldn't be worried about the judge. They are supposed to deffer to international law if US is a party to the treaties involved (which in the case of extradition, it is).
