As someone who uses AI a lot I must tell you chatgpt is best hands down

Federal government should direct its tax effort to the right sectors.

They are just after online users that struggle to create something for themselves.

Cattle Herdsmen that move their cattle from places to places are not tax.

They eat free grasses and they collect all the profit.

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.
Ignorant comment sounding porsh. What’s the net revenue in relation to the valuation? Global company my yansh. Have you even tried deepseek?

No, China and other countries that made strict laws for children, parental care and child birth control made them for zombies abi?
IBB 4 children limit was ignored by many. Imagine 4 children in such a poor country as Nigeria.

Was it made law?

What law has the government put in place?

Seriously, what do you use it for if I may ask?

You don't need to respond if its private or something.

I use it just to Polish work and not to do the whole job for me.
I use it to generate API keys for my workflow.

Generate JSON code to serve as promt for my AI agent.

And many more. The free version would never give you that. The free version is basically for limited and controlled searches.

I agree with you on this. Microsoft Co-pilot comes with my Microsoft 365 environment and I do subscribe for it, yet I can tell you in confidence that even the free version of chatgtp is fare better than the subscribed version of Co-pilot.

ChatGPT remains the best.

You have time to be answering a clown. Just let him be with his folly.

When it comes to Tinubu, everybody should be blamed aside the president.

The nonsense hypocrisy from them for Tinubu is something else, Jonathan was blamed for everything but Tinubu should not be blamed for anything...

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

There are certain projects (jobs) you'll do that would require you to subscribe for more advanced permissions.
I did use API credits for my blog, but I discovered some of the articles were not indexed or rewritten correctly.

Claude (Sonnet 4.5 and Opus 4.1) is far, far better... Explosively better than ChatGPT 5, for coding, for brainstorming, for research and much more.

The one thing about ChatGPT that I'm not sure the others have yet is its inbuilt Agent Mode, which though I find to still be in beta as it is not very competent yet.

Chatgpt tends to get lazy, but Claude is a work horse, and I also think that it hallucinates a lot and is too agreeable. Claude and even Grok are more objective and thorough.

Chatgpt is just the best marketed and noob friendly, that's why it has the greatest market share.

You didn't give it the proper prompt then. And you're not using the / (slash) command. You must understand how chatgtp works or else you might end up giving it the wrong promt and complain about the output result.

You're using chatgtp free mode to compare Claude. Are you aware that some big companies pay up to $200 every month to access all chatgtp hidden features?

You think it's a joke they're ranked the best Ai network in the world?

If you've ever done a remote job you won't even say this cos 8 out of 10 foreign companies use chatgtp full subscription package to manage their workflows. If Claude was better, you wouldn't have to say it here, their demand across the world would increase.

No body rates an app using their free mode access. They rate them using their highest package.

Never mind, we will begin a never ending cycle of arguments, and I don't have the strength. AI models are function specific in the sense that they perform best for what they are made for. So if it does your specific job well, it's the best for you.

Did I mention "free mode" anywhere in my post? I'm using Chatgpt Plus and Claude Pro, AND SuperGrok. So I know exactly what I'm talking about.

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?
Well said bro
