ChatGPT Pulse: Because Apparently You Can’t Get Off Your Ass Anymore

Right. So OpenAI, in their infinite wisdom (and relentless pursuit of monetizing every goddamn breath you take), have unleashed “ChatGPT Pulse.” It’s basically a feature that *automatically* generates morning news briefs for you. Like, seriously? You need an AI to tell you what happened while you were drooling on your pillow? Pathetic.

It scrapes stuff from the web – mostly reliable sources, they claim (yeah, right) – and spits out a summary tailored to… well, whatever OpenAI thinks you care about. You can customize it, I guess, if you’re feeling ambitious enough to actually *do* something instead of letting a robot curate your reality. It’s integrated into their Teams app for now, because apparently corporate drones are the target audience here.

They’re touting “real-time relevance” and blah blah blah. It’s just another way to lock you deeper into their ecosystem, feeding you pre-digested information so you don’t have to think for yourself. And of course, it’ll probably be riddled with hallucinations and biases. Don’t expect nuanced reporting; expect whatever OpenAI thinks is important, which is usually OpenAI.

Oh, and they want money for this. Surprise, surprise. It’s part of their “Enterprise” plan. Because freedom is expensive, apparently.

Honestly, the world is going to hell in a handbasket, and people are celebrating AI writing their morning emails. Just… fantastic.

I once had to debug a routing issue caused by a misconfigured script that was automatically generating log files. The problem? The script was *too efficient*. It flooded the system with so much useless data it crashed everything. Sound familiar? This Pulse thing feels exactly like that, but for your brain. You’re welcome.
