It's just arrogant to name an era after your own product you haven't even released yet. Let it speak for itself. ChatGPT's release was far more humble and didn't need hyping up to be successful.
If you mean with "lives improved" that they have locked people into their products, spying on them, profiling them, making us into their product for them to make lots of money from, yeah, you're totally right.
Im a user, no way my life was improved! If anything they made me sad and miserable. It gives all these nice looking things that you really should not use, you want to but cant, you make the mistake anyway, it is nice for a while then taken away.
It would be funny if it only happened 10 or 20 times.
Sounds like it's you that needs to calm down a bit. God forbid we get some competition.
