SNIP
Barcelona is a team that is in a more comfortable position compared to Manchester united, they are advancing in the league as they wish, while their closest rivals lose points, they continue to progress by opening up the difference in points. The absence of Dembele does not cause much trouble to Xavi's game, at least there is an alternative that can fill his place. On the one hand, Manchester has to think about the league side, they have a lot of injuries and it will be difficult to replace those players.
I couldn't agree more with your evaluation of Barcelona and Manchester United's present situations. While Barcelona leads La Liga with relative ease, Manchester United is fighting for third place in the Premier League, which is renowned to be a more difficult tournament. It's amazing to watch Xavi's squad play effectively despite Dembele's absence, with substitutes stepping up well. Manchester United, on the other hand, has a lot on their plate due to many injuries.

However, I feel that a meeting between these two clubs would provide a clearer indication of who is the superior squad. Each tournament has its unique degree of difficulty, making it impossible to evaluate a team's success simply on the league in which it competes. In order to determine which club will emerge victorious, I eagerly anticipate the encounter between Barcelona and Manchester United.

The gap to the last spot for Champions League is 13 points, 12 points for the Europa League, or mathematically it is about 4-5 matches win.
With the fact that there are still 17 matches to go, mathematically Juventus is still having the chance to catch the position but ofc it is hard.
What Juventus need to do now is to try to win all the remaining 17 matches and hoping for the other team above their current position losing many points.
It is not impossible to happen but really hard to happen unless there will be miracles for them.  Grin


But in real matches, the math can be wrong  Grin

Juventus have the opportunity to get ticket to UEL even though they failed to reach 4th place in the final standings this season. they must win the Coppa Italia. However, they should be able to beat Inter Milan in the Semi-Finals. This is the best chance for Juventus to go to UEL, if they fail in this match, it will be even more difficult for them to play at UEL next season because it wil depend on their final standing positions.

If everything goes aright for Juventus your calculation is true, but if this also becomes reality Juventus is totally screwed:

"Juventus may face 20-point deduction for undeclared wage payments"

Now for everyone who thinks this is old news, this is actually on top of the deduction they recently received and is currently under investigation. It is sad because it shows that Juventus hasn't learnt a lot from the scandal back at the time when they were relegated into Serie B in 2006 or so.
Recent suspicions that Juventus made undisclosed payroll payments are really distressing to hear. This might have serious ramifications for the club, and I can only image how the players and supporters feel right now.

If the 20-point punishment is truly enforced, it would be a big setback for Juventus, who has already suffered a 3-point deduction this season. This circumstance raises doubts about the club's administration and whether or not they have learnt previous controversies that led to their relegation to Serie B in the past. It will be crucial for Juventus to move swiftly and properly in order to handle this matter, since it might have a significant influence on the team's future.

Gambling addiction is a major problem that affects many individuals. You've hit on several of the most telling symptoms of gambling addiction, including preoccupation with the activity and an inability to limit either your financial or time commitments to it. The urge for everyday gaming or the need to conceal one's gambling habits are further symptoms of a gambling disease.

If you or someone you know has a problem with gambling addiction, it's crucial to get assistance. A variety of options, such as counselling and support groups, are available to assist addicts recover control and beat their habits. A better, more fulfilling life is always within reach, regardless of how old you are.

I was also very surprised by Man U's game yesterday and that Leeds were able to score two goals in the first half... At first I thought Man U would lose, but they were lucky to equalise... I was sure they would take the three points in this game, but like many people I was wrong... Now Newcastle have a chance to get back to third place in the standings if they beat Bournemouth away...
This is the most difficult period in the Premier League because almost every team has signed new players to strengthen their squad.

Similarly, I did not expect Manchester United to win the game because it is difficult to come back from two goals down and secure a win; Manchester United was extremely fortunate to have a point in the game.

Manchester United must be very serious in order to keep their Top Four race alive because Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are also in the race. I know the race will be between these teams, but I'm not counting Chelsea and Liverpool yet because they are some points behind these teams.

the difference in points between Newcastle and tottenham is very thin, only 1 point. Newcastle has 40 points, while Tottenham has 39 points. and Manchester United who are in 3rd place have 43 points. And it seems that Newcastle is the most likely to get full points in the next game. yeah it is a good chance for Newcastle to catch Manchester United points. because Newcastle should be able to win easily enough against Bournemouth. but Manchester United actually have a meeting again against Leeds. And I'm quite curious if Manchester can play better this time in front of the Leeds supporters at the Elland road stadium. for Liverpool and Chelsea it seems that they will even find it difficult to stay in the top 10 if they still get bad results in the next match.
I agree with you that the one-point gap between Newcastle and Tottenham is very small. If Newcastle wins their match against Bournemouth, they will have a strong chance to tie or possibly surpass Manchester United in the standings.

Man U. has been playing better as of late, and they clearly don't want to repeat their errors from their last game against Leeds. They could win at Elland Road if they only concentrated harder and were more cautious.

Liverpool and Chelsea find themselves in rather precarious positions right now, but everything is possible. I think we should watch how they do in their next game before making any judgments.

The elderly have passed through the early stage, so I believe that if not for medical issues, they should be able to follow the simple guidelines provided to them either with or without videos. It's your responsibility at that time to guide your uncle on this, you would have started from Bitcoin and other cryptos, how they come into play, used for payments and as an alternative that could be used for payments in casinos almost exactly as fiats could be used.

From there, you guys could have moved to the chosen casino site, and with a simple tutorial from you, he would have gotten it since he is not new to the game. However, if he must watch videos, youtube and other sites are there for short and extensive teaching on how to gamble online.
That your uncle has an appetite for learning about cryptocurrency gambling is fantastic news. You're right that instructional videos would be helpful in teaching him how to utilize cryptocurrency in gaming. I agree that it would be a useful tool for many individuals, particularly the elderly who may be unfamiliar with modern technology.

But I think there are some additional aspects that would be useful for the elderly as well. It would be fantastic if, for instance, crypto casinos had a more user-friendly UI, with bigger buttons and easier-to-read typefaces. A live chat support option, where customers can ask issues and receive instant responses, may be another useful addition.

A streamlined deposit and withdrawal procedure may also be helpful, so that older players don't have to jump through hoops to get their hands on their earnings. Many seniors would appreciate a secured and encrypted platform with a dependable customer support staff since they worry about the security of their retirement savings.

It is still rumored that Steven Gerrard will return to the Premier League as a manager, having previously failed at Aston Villa, he is on the list being considered for the new Leeds United manager, but doubts he will be able to improve Leeds' position as he has also failed to do so at Aston Villa and his experience at Rangers doesn't seem to be enough to make him great in the EPL as a manager.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21322506/steven-gerrard-leeds-manager-shortlist-sacked-jesse-marsch/

I would be very surprised, if Steven Gerrard would not get at least one or two more chance as a manager of a Premier League club. He was just to good, to important and to popular as a player back then, so i am pretty sure that he still has a lot of credit among the club officials in the premier league. That being said, i am still not sure, if Steven Gerrard really has a lot of talent to become a great manager, because the fact that you were a great player that was coached by great managers during his career does not automatically mean that you are also becoming a great manager. Some players are just not fitted for that role.
Regarding your worries about Steven Gerrard's future as a manager in the English Premier League, I completely empathize. The fact that he hit a snag at one of his former teams doesn't exclude him from being a fantastic addition to Leeds United. It's important to remember that every coach has their unique set of skills and limitations, therefore one's ability to be a great player or have a great career is no guarantee that one will be a great manager.

So far as I'm aware, Leeds United is in a period of change and is looking for a new head coach. Taking your time to weigh all of your alternatives thoroughly before choosing a choice is always a good idea. The club, in my view, should search for a manager who has shown success in the English Premier League and who can infuse the team with fresh vitality and direction.

Of course, it's also worth keeping in mind that it's impossible to know for sure how a coach will perform, and that occasionally a new approach can provide better results. Time will tell whether Steven Gerrard is a good fit for Leeds or not. Let's look forward with optimism and see what the future brings.

I really don't think I will leave my bets to an artificial intelligence to do my sourcing for me and I will rather do copy gambling rather than leave my bets to artificial intelligence to do them for me .
I'm not even condemning people who do so because I believe there are people who do so and are doing relatively very well in it without much stress and hassle and people like that will tell you so much about letting artificial intelligence do the work for them. In general, I will never leave my bets to an artificial intelligence to do my sourcing for me.
It's scary at first but if you already tested it for a long time and it works almost perfect like it can give more wins than losses then why not? Using them saves you time for researching if what teams are going to do well. Copying other gamblers is I think no different to this because you are still relying into someone or something else and are you sure that those gamblers manually studying their picks carefully?

What if they are only playing for fun that time and also some of them are using AI. We are still not sure about their future. Maybe the time will come that they will get banned so it's always better to have a back up plan than totally depending on them.
I completely agree with you that using AI exclusively at first may seem terrifying, but it all comes down to how much faith you have in the technology. Why not try it out if the AI has been tested extensively and has demonstrated to provide more wins than losses? However, it's equally crucial to have a fallback strategy in place in case anything goes wrong.

Regarding imitating other gamblers, I also agree with you. Is there any doubt in your mind that those gamblers are carefully considering their picks? What if they are only utilizing AI for entertainment purposes? Always be prepared for the worst and don't rely only on others.

When placing bets, I believe it's a wonderful idea to use both research and technology. You can make better judgments by combining your own research with the insights offered by AI. Finding the balance that works best for you is key.

However, I believe it might be dangerous to make all of your betting judgments using artificial intelligence. AI may provide insightful data, but it's still crucial to understand the game and the competing teams. AI may not always consider important elements that might affect a game's result, such as team morale, recent injuries, or other important elements.

I think it's crucial to approach betting with a well-rounded strategy, making use of both your own knowledge and the technologies at your disposal. By doing this, you may take into consideration a range of elements while making judgments and not simply depend on AI or other gamblers.

After the Italian Cup, Inter won the league and made a difference of five points. There is no other team that has suffered as much as Milan in other leagues. I don't think how is it going to be they won a single corner kick in Milan for ninety minutes. I'm saying Milan really didn't do anything, they couldn't use a corner kick during the whole match. It is very difficult, the Champions league with this game is not realistic at all.
With Milan's performance against Inter, I was really upset. They didn't appear to be giving it much thought or trying very hard to win. They failed to even take a shot on goal, much less score a goal, which astonished me. A squad of their quality shouldn't behave that way in a competitive game.

I believe it's essential for teams to play their best in major games like these, particularly when they're participating in a prominent league like the Champions League. To see Milan provide such a mediocre performance was very disappointing. The Champions League should serve as a forum for the top teams to fight against one another and display their talents, not a place for teams to just put on a show.

The match was unexpected, with many people surprised by how Tottenham beat Manchester City and denied them three points in today's match. After Arsenal's loss to Everton, we all expected Manchester City to perform better in today's match, but that never happened. On the other hand, Arsenal is fortunate to still have a 5 point lead over Manchester City; if they do not improve in their upcoming games and continue to win matches, Manchester City may overtake them in the league title race.
It is not the first time that Man City is defeated by Tottenham. So, I don't think it is very surprising. Everyone must remember that Tottenham always makes Man City difficult to get points.  Grin

We know that Man City really wants to win this match to overtake Arsenal. But they failed to get points in this important match, so no change in the point gap. I think Man City is too obsessed to get 3 points and loses focus on the match. So, they only made many shot attempts but they have no accuracy in scoring. It is a big lesson, Man City must stay focused on the match.


You and I both agree that it is not at all shocking that Man City lost to Tottenham. Tottenham has always been a difficult opponent for Man City and has previously caused them trouble. But I have to admit, recently it seems like a lot has changed at Man City.

According to what I saw throughout the game, it seems that the players are more concerned with scoring on their own than with cooperating as a team. This team's performance is suffering this season, in my opinion, as a result of the degree of selfishness that is present on the field. Not only did Man City lose to Tottenham, but they have also been performing poorly lately.

If Guardiola wants to make things better, he has a lot of work to do. For the sake of the team, he must urge his players to cooperate and support one another. It will be very difficult for them to win any trophies this season if they continue to play alone. Man City must unite as a unit and put in their best effort in the remaining games.
5390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: February 06, 2023, 06:38:14 AM
me too - for me Nadal has always been a legend to me.
YOu are right he would not give up that easily - but that too is true -sometime the injuries are fatal and they kick off the players off their career.
It's not just about giving up, you have to see how Federer is still trying to be able to play and win the GS especially Wimbledon because it is his favorite surface but that didn't happen because an injury forced him to retire because his body was no longer able to compete and maybe Nadal would be the same but retiring with such great achievement is something to be proud of.

But I guess his injury is not that worst compare to Federer or to Andy Murray, so with proper exercise, he could rehabilitate his body to still compete at least one GS in this calendar year and chase another title and get one ahead of Djokovic.

So we will see, I doubt that he will retire though, of course his name is in the discussion of the GOAT.

But so far, Djokovic is still far from retiring so he can still more GS from Nadal, but for sure Rafa has a target for this year's slam.

Realistically, given his age and numerous injuries, I think that Nadal has a chance for perhaps only one more GS in Paris this year, but even that will be very difficult to achieve considering the competition, not only Djokovic but also the ever-improving Alcaraz.
Djokovic is slightly younger and healthier and currently seems ready to win a few more GS, primarily in Wimbledon and Australia.
If it weren't for the Covid crisis and the ban on performances for Djokovic in Australia, the cancellation of Wimbledon and other unforeseen situations, I'm sure that Djokovic would already have an unattainable advantage in the number of GS wins over Nadal.
However, if Djokovic avoids injuries and continues to play at his current level for at least two more years, I think he will have no problem winning a few more GS and becoming the GOAT.
Especially in light of Nadal and Djokovic's recent supremacy, I agree wholeheartedly that competition in the Grand Slams is always fierce. However, I believe it's significant to keep in mind that tennis is a physically demanding sport and that injuries may play a significant role in a player's performance.

Due to his age and injury history, Nadal doesn't have much of a shot of winning another Grand Slam tournament, especially in Paris. In contrast, Djokovic looks to be at the peak of his powers and prepared to add to his collection of Grand Slam titles.

There is little doubt that the Covid issue and other unexpected occurrences have had an effect on the tennis world and on players' performances. I have no doubt in my opinion that Djokovic will continue to add to his Grand Slam titles and secure his reputation as one of the greatest tennis players of all time if he can continue to play at his present level and avoid injuries.

A draw could also be a possibility in this match. They are 2 teams that both want to play football and score goals. But on Tuesday we also have the game AC Milan - Tottenham Hotspur. The English are the favorite in this game, in Milan it will be 50-50 but in 2 games I expect Tottenham to continue. I think the weakest teams in 1 match are those of the Benfica-Club Brugge match. A favorable draw for both. Benfica was also doing well in the CL last year. The coach of Bruges was fired a few weeks ago due to disappointing results in the competition. But winning the group in the CL apparently has no value anymore. Strange.
I wholeheartedly concur that AC Milan will have a minor edge playing at home. However, the reality is that their recent domestic performance has been everything but outstanding. It's possible that Tottenham will benefit from their poor defense. Tottenham has been playing really well, on the other hand. They have been coordinating their offense and defense, which is essential for any winning team. Personally, I believe they can compete with AC Milan.

But lately, things haven't exactly been going in their favor. With no victories in their past five games, they have been having trouble in the domestic league. That is unquestionably reason for alarm. They must raise the bar in every area if they want to make things better. This match has a lot on the line, so it will be interesting to watch how it all plays out. But one thing is for certain: the game will be a cracker, with both clubs determined to win.

You should be proud of yourself for holding onto that unexplainable peace during such a difficult time. Justin was a positive influence in your life, and it's great that he was able to bring so much encouragement and positivity into your life in such a short amount of time. May his memory live on and bring comfort to his family and loved ones.

As for your job loss, I can understand that it must have been a tough decision for you, but it's good to know that you have a plan and are actively looking for opportunities. You are right, it's important to do what you love and to surround yourself with people you care about. Starting a business or finding a better job could be a great opportunity for you to find more happiness and fulfillment in your career. Selling life insurance on the side is also a great idea and I wish you the best of luck in your job search.

It sounds like you have a positive attitude towards the future and that you are excited for what's to come. That's a great mindset to have, especially during difficult times.

Airdrop moment have been over and right now move and forget for joining many kinds of airdrop because waste our time without received payment yet, in these days many kinds of airdrop try to push up their social media account follower and take advantage with giving shit coins and required for following their social media account.

Check with many new airdrop launching several days later, they ask participants for following all their media account and actually they have limited budget reward for participating in their airdrop project. I don't think good ideas keep following and joining with many new airdrop project right now because waste time for receiving new coins from airdrop without listed on market.
I completely agree with you. The euphoria around airdrops has clearly subsided, and many of these new ventures are only leveraging them to increase their social media followings without providing any genuine value to the participants.

Following and taking part in these airdrops is clearly a waste of time, particularly because many of them distribute subpar coins that are unlikely to ever be listed on exchanges. Instead of merely joining the airdrop bandwagon, it would be wiser to concentrate on initiatives that have actual promise and strong growth.

Ethereum is one instance of a successful project that didn't depend on airdrops. They concentrated on creating a strong community and providing a quality product rather than employing airdrops. As a consequence, with a sizable and devoted community of users and developers, Ethereum has grown to become one of the most valuable cryptocurrencies in the whole world. Therefore, it could be wiser to concentrate on identifying high-quality initiatives with long-term promise rather than chasing airdrops.
5394  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Difficulties with creating an NFT project? on: February 05, 2023, 07:56:56 PM
A fantastic method to express your creativity and bring your artwork or other digital assets to life is by creating an NFT collection. However, as you have previously said, there may be some challenges along the way.

I've seen that many creators struggle with the technical side of things. It might be challenging for some people to learn enough about blockchain technology and smart contracts to create an NFT collection. Additionally, minting NFTs and listing them on a marketplace may take time and be difficult, particularly for people who are unfamiliar with the cryptocurrency industry.

The expense of starting an NFT collection is another difficulty. If you're assembling a sizable collection, the cost of minting NFTs may soon mount up since fees are sometimes paid in the form of gas or other cryptocurrencies. In addition, developing a successful NFT collection requires spending money on marketing and promotions, which adds to the difficulty of the process.
5395  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Burning feature is not utility on: February 05, 2023, 07:40:40 PM
Yeah, I completely understand your frustration with the whole burning feature craze. It's definitely not the only factor to consider when investing in a project. In fact, it's just a marketing trick for some projects to attract new investors.

I totally agree that new projects shouldn't be solely relying on a burning feature to make it successful. Instead, they should focus on developing a solid product with real-world use cases and a well thought out tokenomics plan. This is what will actually drive the value and success of the project in the long run, not a flashy token burn feature.

Unfortunately, there are still a lot of new investors who fall for these gimmicks, and that's why scammers keep using it as a tactic. That's why it's always important to do your own research and due diligence before investing in any project, and not just blindly follow the hype around burning features.

It looks like Tottenham will be able to maintain their 1-0 score advantage until the end of the match, because now it is entering the final minutes and Tottenham are still ahead with a score of 1-0. But unfortunately, Cristian Gabriel Romero got a red card and Tottenham only played with ten players.

Because if there are still minutes that can be exploited by Manchester City, then the advantage in the number of players can become dangerous too. But at least Tottenham have been confirmed to get points, whether it still won three points or maybe only one point but if Manchester City can score a goal in the final minute of the match.
it's a huge victory for Tottenham! Despite playing with ten players, they managed to hold on and secure the 1-0 win over Manchester City. It must have been an intense match with the red card and all, but it just shows the resilience and determination of the Tottenham players. I bet the fans are ecstatic right now, celebrating this hard-fought victory.

This is a huge boost for Tottenham's confidence and morale, and a great way to start the season. I'm sure their coach and players will be over the moon with this result, and will be using this win as motivation for their future matches. Overall, it was an entertaining and thrilling match, and a great display of the beautiful game

Both Havertz and Aubameyang are not strikers. They are much comfortable as playing on wings or playing on rather as an attacking mid role. They have Fofana but he needs experience too so right now it doesn't looks good for Chelsea as they don't have anyone who can score goals for them. But for net season they have Nkunku booked so hopefully they will have better performance in next season.

Aubameyang is the only natural striker Chelsea has now. Havertz is not a striker and so is Felix. I have been saying it since that they need a natural and top class striker that can score goals because that is one of the major things the team needs right now.
I have not watched Fofana and I don't know how good he really is but i agree with you when you say he needs experience. He is a young player that has only played for Molde. Nkunku too is not a natural top striker. He is a player that can play on all three positions upfront so we still dont know how that will turn out.
Chelsea better go all out for a world class striker in the summer if they are a serious club. Harry Kane is a good profile for the kind of player I'm talking about.
Yes, I agree with you on Chelsea's dearth of a natural striker. They've had this issue for a long, so it's odd that they haven't solved it yet. It might be difficult to navigate the transfer market, so sometimes you simply have to be patient and wait for the proper player to appear.

I consider Harry Kane to be one of the finest attackers in the world, and any team would be lucky to have him. But as you pointed out, it's difficult to forecast where he'll go. Although he may not want to leave Tottenham—his childhood club—a transfer to Manchester City would be too good to pass up. Anyone's guess at this point, but he will always have his ability to score goals with him wherever he goes.

27 more points for LeBron in the Lakers loss tonight against the Pelicans. This puts him on pace to easily break the scoring record on Thursday against the Bucks on TNT. It seemed a little obvious that this was what was going to happen and at this point he would need a monster game against the Thunder or probably an injury to keep it from happening. Keep your Thursday night free. It will most likely be LeBron’s historic evening.
No need to force it against the Thunder. Just put the game in a blowout score and then rest to be prepared for the game against the Milwaukee Bucks.
15-20 points will do, then the next 20 will be an easy one especially if they are playing against a competitive team. 37 points to go.

Jamal Murray is cooking. Vintage Jamal, the one we saw in the bubble.
41 points, 5 rebounds, and 7 assists. 7/12 in 3-point line, 15/24 field goals. Superbly amazing. He silenced his critiques once again, they all thought the old Jamal won't be back anymore after the injury but now he proved his consistency by being back and more. He had been the offensive weapon of the Denver Nuggets in their last 4 games scoring 22, 32, 33, and now 41 points.
But it doesn't mean Jokic is getting buried, he also recorded another triple-double 14/18/10, and that is his 9th in their last 11 games.
Superpowered Nuggets will be difficult to defeat.
As a huge basketball fan, I can't wait to witness LeBron James set yet another record! He needs 36 more points to become the all-time top scorer in NBA history, so it won't be long now.

Another easy victory for Napoli, which had no problems at Spezia. AC Milan has dropped significantly in the ranking. Tonight Inter and AC Milan play against each other. Should Inter lose that, the lead of leader Napoli over the number 2 is no less than 16 points. Have we seen that in this competition in recent years? Last year it was exciting until the very last round, that will not be the case this year. With the current standings, Napoli is even the new champion 5 rounds before the end of the competition. Somewhere it is inexplicable why this team is so strong this season.
Napoli seems to be in good shape this year as their victory against Spezia was just another resounding example of their superiority. If Inter Milan loses to AC Milan tonight, the gap might widen even further. AC Milan is still in the running despite their recent drop in the rankings. Given that they are still a powerful foe, Inter Milan may face a challenging confrontation.

Although Napoli seems to be a Scudetto contender, anything can happen in sports. The matchup between Inter and AC Milan tonight might have a significant impact on how the tournament plays out. It's possible that this year's closing stretch won't be as dramatic as last year's, but it doesn't rule out the potential of something unforeseen happening.

Microsoft's purchase of OpenAI technology is a significant turning point for the AI sector and will make its cutting-edge capabilities available to millions of consumers. However, as you pointed out, even having access does not necessarily ensure utilization. This is shown by the fact that despite free knowledge and information being easily accessible online, many individuals still choose to disregard it.

But I believe we could see a different result in the instance of Microsoft Teams and its combination with OpenAI technology. The reason for this is because whether we utilize AI for personal or professional purposes, it has already been so ingrained in our everyday lives. Additionally, the fact that Microsoft Teams is a popular platform for remote work and collaboration suggests that having AI features integrated in may improve its popularity among users.

AI may undoubtedly play a significant part in streamlining procedures and increasing efficiency, which are two things that organizations are always seeking to do. Teams might automate certain processes to save time and leverage the AI technology for insights and forecasts. I believe that as time goes on, more and more organizations and people will embrace AI and use its powers.
Something like a google, but for openAI chatgpt could be actually pretty decent. Normally we get results from websites, but in this case we could have some AI helping us with all our questions and even though it could be wrong and give a wrong answer, I believe that it could definitely be a good way to use it instead of google because google shows results which could also very well be a lie as well, let alone be wrong.

Microsoft taking over openai will make sure that its a customer product, but being that much available to over a billion people could result with people having access to it enough to tweak the codes to build a gambling bot that could be superior than others.
As you pointed out, there is a legitimate worry concerning the precision of the responses given by the AI. Although it is true that Google search results might sometimes be deceptive, at least there are several sources to check against and validate the facts. It's crucial to think about the possibility of bias and inaccuracy in the answers given by a single AI source.

Undoubtedly a fascinating development, Microsoft acquiring OpenAI. It's likely to have greater exposure and public acceptance as a consumer product as it will be more widely available. The platform's accessibility to a billion users, though, might potentially have some negative effects, as you pointed out. In order to develop a gambling bot that has an edge over other players, for instance, anyone may be able to modify the coding.
