Dylan Patel He has nailed it. He says he never paid for Netflix or HBO because he always parasitized alien accounts, but now he has subscriptions to Chatgpt, Perpleplexity and Gemini. And without sharing them with anyone.
We have been watching Netflix, Disney, Spotify and company setting devices, home verification, SMS codes to verify that you are the one who pays, geolocation to confirm that you live where you say living.
A surveillance device for Avoid cases in the ten relatives enjoy what only one pays. There is a lot of money spent on anti-comparting technology, they have eroded experience. And yet, the accounts continue to share. Total, what else does your brother -in -law know what have you seen ‘The squid game‘This weekend.
With the generative AI, no control system is needed. Shame does all dirty work:
- Nobody wants a partner to discover that he asks ChatgPT to how to write a sad three -line mail.
- Nobody wants your partner to read the conversations at two in the morning where you consult what to do before a vital and intimate doubt.
The history of a Chatgpt or Claude account is an intimate, professional and personal newspaper in equal parts. A record of many insecurities disguised as Prompts.
Something too revealing happened recently: When Openai charged GPT-4o for the arrival of GPT-5 there was a small revolt. Too many people had become accustomed to a warmer and more empathetic chatbot (perhaps more servile and complicating), and did not want to lose it. Openai had to reculate.
There were people confessing without shame that he needed to recover his digital confidant, to That imaginary friend who will be imaginary but does not judge or yawn. Who always has time and is able to remember every detail of previous conversations. The imaginary friend of the 21st century.
IA platforms have discovered the perfect business model: you don’t need to spend money on locks when People prefer to pay before admitting to what extent it depends on a machine. Or let others see their intimacies.
Netflix, Spotify and the rest will continue to invest a lot in complicating the lives of those who share their account. Openai only needs to continue believing that no one else talks to Chatgpt As you do. And they are right: nobody else asks him the same shameful things as you. That is why none share the account.
