Meanwhile, e dey reach everybody.
Ii is only the rich and those that knows it's worth that use the paid version of Open AI. People like you use free version and not required to pay VAT.
Since you are not rich enough to be captured in the Tax net, you should stop bothering yourself over nothing.

For those hailing Tinubu's tax reforms, hope you people are happy?

You compare Nigeria tax system with that of UK and US but will never compare the minimum wage nor the essential services the government provides in return, then the type of leaders that are accountable with governance in general, well like I do say, una eyes go clear, you support a thief and criminal to be increasing and collecting tax from you and think the thief will use it to make your country better?
From what i have come to realise, this craze for collecting Tax is another way of looting by the government. The present government may be prosecuted and sentenced for Tax fraud cases, at the expiration of their tenure. This will be the first of its kind in Nigeria

They continue taxing virtually everything without adding any value to the people they claim to lead.

I do. Infact I purchased $10 worth of API credits yesterday.

There are certain tasks (jobs) you'll do that would require you to subscribe for more advanced permissions.
There are people that sell chatgpt premium for less than 3k.

What they do is that, they will share you their login details which you will use. But it is risky if the project you are working on is confidential

😂 How many Nigerians dey pay for ChatGPT?
We're all using the free version or the gndjdjfvjg version.


Tinubu taxing everything since he came to seat and yet we ain't seeing where the taxes goes.

He still borrows more than those who weren't taxing Nigerian to death.
I do pay for it.

Quite important for my job because the free version is not a smart as the paid version.
Especially if you write codes. It’s a good assistant for debugging issues.

Also, the free is so so limited.
Once you use the paid, you’ll see the free as total crap. It’s dull.

The huge problems we have in this country can be correlated to our reckless child birth culture. Too many Nigerians should never have been born, especially to all these wretched poor parents. The upbringing is so bad and you end up with people making this kind of comment.

That tool is powerful. Besides, where person dey work na for there e dey chop. There are certain jobs you cannot do well without AI chatbots. People like that will gladly pay for it.

BTW, don't call that guy miserable because he runs a company worth over $500 billion - that's more than 2x the GDP of entire Nigeria.
When you overprint your currency ($) you also overinflate the value of your companies to soak in the excess currency in circulation. Don’t be fooled.

And that is where the same government should step in, you think China and most world powers made laws for Children because they just love the children? No it is because of reasons like this too...


What has the Nigerian government done concerning child birth control?

Wow! So Nigerians are zombies who can’t reason or think for themselves? So “government” has to pass laws to COMPEL them to think and adjust to reality? Na war oooo. Oga I think you haven’t travel anywhere to see how advanced countries work. People THINK and act as appropriate to their thoughts.

Oga, rest! America is building global companies. Maybe when Nigeria has her first global company you will realise that a company can be worth much more than that.
