I have to wonder at this point that there must be something seriously fucky with whatever firms are powering that crap and Adams. When something is broken - just turn it off, fix it, and then make it available again.

Wonder how much money is being thrown away on this and what "friend" of Adams' is getting that money. Doesn't seem to be any better than an FAQ page.

These are really quick and cheap to get going, but I wouldn't be shocked if it's a boondoggle.

Oh it's definitely worse.

Someone inhouse could certainly have set up a front end for OpenAI's api for pretty cheap, but my money would be on a private contractor doing the same thing for an obscene amount.

Edit: correction, they're using Microsoft Azure AI, which may use OpenAi's models.
