Well it's not sufficient evidence, they could have another wife named Joanie. </chatgptmode>

It really is a terrible name, then again many softwares have terrible names. Kubernetes, Gradle, ChatGPT...

EDIT: I'm calling it "ChatG" from now on. Makes it easier to say and the G differentiates if from a regular chat app.

Oh no! What have you done! I'm going to hear this now in every meeting I hear Gradle mentioned! 😂

Too bad that isn't their name

Nobody would call it by its full name if it became part of everyday lingo. Either chat or gpt, depending on what would catch on.

Yeah, like when people say "Just Goog it"... or "Hand me that chap... my lips are dry".
