Is it GlasgowGPT by any chance?

Either way, there's definitely an opportunity for funding. In the case of Glasgow, there's a huge populous out there that are descendants of folk from the city/country taking pride in it (arguably more than a bunch of us that live here!) and like to get in on the banter.

That's certainly an avenue worth exploring if there's a similar relationship with folks or families of folks that emigrated away, but feel a strong connection.

Edit: You'll have to excuse my unfamiliarity with LLMs, but if you're storing messages and responses, and if there's a way to check that a message has already been asked, would it be possible to replay that (at least on the first message) instead of running a new query against the API? If they then engage further, then it would send the job out?

Haha yes it is! And appreciate the suggestion, that's a good idea that I'll look into. I've plastered a big banner up and will see if anyone goes for it, from locally or elsewhere. Cheers

Also, I wonder if Scotland has an agency similar to Ireland whereby they have a government VC fund to encourage startups... So there may be a .gov option
