[Al][gpt] Price pressures

If gpt-family-edition 3 years hence does not manage to find accurate price info (including loopholes) for retailer X, then retailer X is going to be incentivized to figure it out. It's not hard. A handwritten sign on the side of the building would suffice: why would Google not figure out how to profit from their Street View data yet more? Make a deal with whomever! Parent company of Parent company of...? OpenAI?

It's not important, all they have to do is let their savant slurp up all the recent data. It will see the signs, bleep-blorp the actual numbers go into its database, along with all the endless context, all networked up.

"Yo, GPT!", they'll say. "How can I help you?", it will say.

"What is the cheapest and easiest way for me to get a gently used Tesla Model 3 by tomorrow about noon. Oh, and feel free to contact any good candidates nearby. You know, Craigslist, all that."

"Off I go!", it will say. Cute.

Anyway, that and more. It is some Prometheus shit.
