I am embarassed by how good is ChatGPT, and I have never paid one penny

Is anyone like me? I use ChatGPT on a daily basis (say: 1-5 different topics). I have never paid one penny to OpenAI to use their LLM (ChatGPT). I feel weirdly guilty that I get so much high quality free advice from ChatGPT. To be clear: I don't work for OpenAI, and I am not here to shill for them. I suppose there are many other high quality free LLMs that I have never used.

I am alone? If not, how do you feel about it?

Anecdote: Tonight, I asked ChatGPT to review my most recent US gov't bond strategy and ask could they (it?) improve it. The analysis was surely better than a "rookie Wall Street analyst". That part was shocking. The analysis is so good, and is backed by verifiable facts.

I’m a freebie too. It’s not perfect but the imperfection keeps me grounded and having to think.

You should not feel guilty at all. These tools belong to the people, and should be fully free. It was after all, the hard work of people’s lives that was stolen and used without permission for training.

That's nothing, not only have I never paid for ChatGPT, I've never even paid a moment of my attention to Chat GPT. It's a chat bot, right? ..web search.. yep, a crappy ad-laden chat bot.
