I remember newspaper machines used to have have boxes with the day's paper. You'd put a few coins in, open the box, and take one paper from the stack. I imagine that was also an available resource for merchandise for re-sale.
I hear people in Argentina are hard-selling socks in the street, too, so the tradition is still alive.

I guess I don't understand why we are talking about a chat with an LLM. What value does it have?
I think we'll be lucky if it's dotcom 2.0. I think it's going to be more 1929 Re-imagined.
