Interesting. I have tested ChatGPT many times writing PHP code.  I am 
currently using it to create a framework.  I already have a bunch of 
code written and it helps me with certain things.

I interacted with Chat about configuring Postfix, dovecot, squirrel 
mail, Bind, let's encrypt (to include configuring cron), and possibly 
more.

I have some familiarity with all these except squirrel mail and what I 
saw beat all other documents or tutorial sources.

Having lots of PHP experience helps me validate the code.  I do not know 
everything and I used to use Google to search for answers.  I now look 
to Chat for help!! I use the free version and I rarely login.

I follow the news often.  I'll look to Chat and see what I find.

I'll look into whether or not Trump is willing to withhold $ from Cal.
