    good for him

    He could have waited a few months and used a Quantum enabled laptop.

    I have a bet with my only friend, that we will see quantum enabled laptops in the christmas TV scammy advertising runs this year.

    They will be able to calculate the first 1000 primes. I, for one am suitably impressed. I will get one for my grand kids. It takes ages with pen and paper.

    I only have a £1 bet with her.

    I also have another £1 bet with her, that ai will die in a years time.

    I'm on to a guarunteed winner. A life enhancing and life changing £2.

    I'll invest the £2 in AGI.

    2026 is going to be a wonderful year
