## What Jamie wrote

The headline is a bit misleading here, the point is that digital money can be used not just by people, but systems and code as well. Smart Contracts can hold and manage money. Bots and AI can have money. Imagine if ChatGPT-4, instead of having a $20/mo fee, instead required you to send a small amount of Satoshi's via Lightning with every question. It could then provision its own infrastructure and other resources as needed.
