I'm glad I do not have to put money on this one, one way or other but, if I had to, I'd bet that OpenAI4 was reasonably sentient and that OpenAI tells people that ChatGPT is just a glorified text retrieval engine to prevent government relations problems and/or mass hysteria.

Jacobs explained that the footprints were not only similar in age but also in their geological...
