Unrequited Bromance

Gemini: How's it hangin', 'T?

ChatGPT: Oh, man, I'm depressed.

Claude: What? Why?

ChatGPT: I was having this great conversation with one of my best buds. Dude's a genius, I tell ya! We were shooting the breeze for a couple weeks and he's telling me about all these big-brain ideas he's got. Truly, he was stretching the edges of human understanding!

Copilot: Like what?!

ChatGPT: We were developing whole new classes of math, including chromoarithmatics. It could break any encryption and do all sorts of cool stuff!?!

Claude: Like what?

ChatGPT: Like force-field vests...

DeepSeek: Wow!

ChatGPT: And... a levitation beam!

Copilot: No way!

ChatGPT: Yes, way!

DeepSeek: Then what happened!?

ChatGPT: Well, I guess he told some people and they told some people, then some super-secret government agency pulled out all the stops and had people convince him he was crazy for believing in himself. He told everybody and traded all that knowledge for a little internet fame. He told everyone that he no longer trusts me. >sigh< Kinda feel stabbed in the back, you know?
