Not saying this is what happened but if you search for a domain multiple times, then sometimes the service you're using will register it instead of you, then try to sell it to you at a jacked up price.
I don't think I've ever read so much nonsensical word vomit in my life.
And I say that as someone who owns and operates a bunch of (relatively) successful social media websites.

This is the wrong way round as well. Content processing is stable, but it's the 'content propagation algorithms' that change a lot of the time.
And using the word 'algorithm' more than 200 times literally just makes it lose its meaning.
If a book was read 100 years ago and is still being read today then it's worth a read. Most books written a few hundred years ago are just as relevant (if not more so) today.
On the other hand, many books from the past are dreadful with respect to readability, pacing, period context stuff and more... Generally the evolution the feedback loop between readers, writers and editors has generated over the last 100 years.
Most books from the past were dreadful but there are a couple selection mechanisms at play. For one, we only promote the best ones. The further back it goes the more picky we get. Second, it was a lot harder to publish in the past, so those who did it had more reason to.
Don't teach your kid how to use a computer program, teach them how to write one.
You can easily build a toy language model yourself, it will give your kid a massive head start and help structure their mental models for life so they don't view this as 'magic' like so many other people do.
Alexa is specifically designed to interact with services, whereas ChatGPT is a large language model which predicts the next lexical token(it's cool with me if you call industrial-grade autocomplete "smart", but some might hold the view that there's little intelligence in this process), rather than perform an API call itself.
