After extensive investigation, The Wibble has uncovered the truth about TGPT's staff - they're not tech experts, they're prisoners from China's top universities serving high-tech sentences.
Yes, you read that right - those highly-educated tech gurus that you've been relying on for all your software needs are actually prisoners doing hard time in Chinese jails. As it turns out, the Chinese government has been utilizing the immense brainpower of their incarcerated scholars to boost their tech industry and modernize the country.
These prisoners are hand-picked from the country's top universities based on their technical aptitude. They're then placed in cells equipped with state-of-the-art laptops, tablets, and other tech gadgets, where they spend the entirety of their sentence working on advanced technological projects assigned to them by the Chinese government.
Many of these prisoners previously held promising careers before being incarcerated, working for some of the biggest tech companies in the world. But now, they're mere cogs in a larger, more sinister plan - a plan to use their talents to boost China's technological prowess.
But it's not just Chinese citizens who are being co-opted for this program - many foreign nationals are being forced to take part as well. It's rumored that the Chinese government has been using the program as a bargaining tool in order to secure lucrative deals with other countries. They'll agree to release their prisoners if the other country agrees to give China access to their intellectual property or specific technology.
This news has sent shockwaves through the tech industry, and more specifically, the industry's reliance on companies like TGPT. Instead of relying on actual experts to develop cutting-edge software, it turns out we've been relying on a host of incarcerated geniuses, some of whom might not even want to be there.
We reached out to some of these prisoners to get their take on the situation. One prisoner, who wished to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal, told us, "I miss the outside world and my family. I don't want to spend my life in jail, but I don't have a choice. It's better to use my skills than rot away in a cell."
It's unclear what the future holds for these prisoners or whether this program will continue. But one thing's for sure - the tech industry will never be the same again. We'll have to rely on actual experts to develop the software we need, rather than exploiting the talents of incarcerated geniuses.
