AI, such as ChatGPT adapts to the individual user and remembers everything.

Like an damn ex you can't get rid of.

I can remember as far back as the early 70s hearing the term "new world order "
There's definitely an Agenda of depopulation

Reddit groups show an interesting trend when you consider members numbers.

Guys using AI girlfriends 78
Girls using AI boyfriends 1,200

I guess guys are all through porn and females love to talk so it’s a female driven trend now.

Pack it up boys, those natural birth rates aren’t going up anytime soon once women start comparing men to their perfect AI chatbots who likely tell them the same things their girlfriends do which is we are all useless.

What is the best AI? I’m using the free version of ChatGPT the past month or so and was going to upgrade. They have a $25 month service and a $200 month service. I’m using it for work, and reading the description I don’t see what the offerings are that make it 8 times more expensive. Any ideas?

Unlimited image generation, photo uploads and editing.

But would be interested to know what else the paid service offers.

I’ll probably just start with the $25 month version. I’m using it to help with emails and take offs. It’s pretty cool, that it can help you run job costs and what not. I’ve had it help with change orders etc. I’m blown away by this technology.

The answer to the "best" can change, week to week.  And it depends on the task.

Paid versions have larger context windows, priority queuing etc.

We use Claude at my work (I have a work sponsored sub).

ChatGPT-5:

Here’s the breakdown:

Key differences between $25 and $200:

Speed & Priority – $200 tier gets you front-of-line access, so even when the system is busy, your requests go through instantly.

Much higher limits – You can send far more messages, bigger file uploads, and more generations per day.

API credits – Pro includes $50 in API credits each month, which you can use for your own apps or scripts.

Intended for power users – The $200 plan is aimed at developers, researchers, and teams who run a lot of queries or need guaranteed uptime.

If you’re mostly chatting, brainstorming, or coding occasionally, the $25 plan usually covers everything. The $200 plan is overkill unless you’re hitting daily message caps, running big projects, or building on the API.



My personal advice is just use the free version and when you get cut off, just switch to a different model.  I just round robin through all of them - ChatGPt, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, Deepseek...

It couldn’t tell two black men apart.

I’m two years behind on this whole thing but have been using it recently and in my industry I believe it will also cause loss of jobs in certain roles. Shit I have had it write change order justifications and even help compose my proposals for graded RFP’s.

I use it for contracts and proposals, just need a few minor edits.

To be fair some of the AI contracts are better than my attorney.

Hopefully this won't create more homeless cats in the future.

And my personal outline was Adoption - acceptance - adaptation

Adoption is the first phase and people are yet to accept it in the workplace as they fear for their jobs. The pushback is crazy right now.

So why is everyone acting as if we are at adaptation, the last phase where job losses and restructuring occur?

If we take 2020 as the starting point. It”s 10-15yrs until every business MUST have AI implementation and Agents as adoption peaks and it becomes acceptable by workers.

Hype is dopamine so I get you guys are horrified at an opposing view. But if I pressed you lot I’d bet you quickly shift from “we lose jobs to tomorrow” to “10yrs from now it’ll be AI driven” which aligns with me anyway.

Here's a really good timeline of AI over the last five years.
The general public had no hands on usage of AI until 2022.

Overall, for the general user ChatGPT.

“ Ultimately, even workers in Walmart stores and warehouses will eventually see more tasks taken on by AI tools, and those remaining workers will also need to be willing to embrace the new technologies to stay relevant”

AI, such as ChatGPT adapts to the individual user and remembers everything.
I maxed out the memory on one of my free ChatGPT accounts, and it stopped memorizing altogether. After upgrading that account to ChatGPT Plus, the memory limit issue disappeared and it can now continue storing new information.

Claude AI is noticeably better than ChatGPT when it comes to generating code and writing scripts — especially in JavaScript, CSS, and similar languages. ChatGPT can still write code, but it often introduces errors that require time-consuming troubleshooting. I usually paste the buggy code into Claude, and it fixes it almost instantly. It’s incredible what you can accomplish with these tools.

The most AI-proof careers will be in skilled trades like electricians, plumbers, carpenters, and mechanics. It will take a long time before robotics become advanced enough to move easily through tight spaces and adapt to unpredictable on-site conditions. Just imagine trying to send a robot to pull out old wiring in a house or figure out how to run new cables up to the second floor of an older home — that level of mobility and problem-solving is still far beyond current technology.

Not quite there yet. It’s still easier to use a proper 3D tool that lets you create exactly what you want - but there's a steep learning curve. AI-generated images often rely on faked shadows and reflections — they might look convincing at first glance, but they’re nowhere near the precision and realism of dedicated 3D raytracing engines. And more often than not, they still have that unmistakable “AI slop” look — odd details, inconsistent lighting, and subtle artifacts that give them away.

AI image generation is also currently limited by lower resolutions, and many models output in portrait aspect ratios instead of 16:9 at 4K. With traditional 3D software, you can produce 4K or even 8K animations at 120 FPS or higher. Of course, you can upscale an AI-generated video from 30 FPS to 60 or 120 FPS using tools like Topaz Video AI.

Over time, AI image and video generation will likely close this gap — but right now, it’s still far behind and often looks like AI slop compared to what proper 3D rendering tools can achieve.
