So I was playing around with Chat GPT and plugged in some numbers. Specifically to find out [View all]

How much the US gave in goods and Money to Ukraine in 2023. Here is the answer:

In 2023, the U.S. has provided significant aid to Ukraine, primarily for its defense against Russia’s invasion. By the end of the fiscal year, total U.S. assistance to Ukraine since the start of the war had reached about $175 billion. This includes over $106 billion directly for Ukraine’s government, with most of the funds going toward military assistance. Approximately $62 billion was allocated to the U.S. Department of Defense for military support, such as weapons, equipment, and training, while $46 billion was channeled through the State Department and USAID for humanitarian and economic aid  .
In 2023 alone, over $33.6 billion was dedicated to defense manufacturing and replacing U.S. military stockpiles used in Ukraine . Additionally, significant amounts were allocated for Ukrainian civil services, economic stabilization, and assistance to displaced Ukrainians.

Then I asked it this… how much the NFL spent on Salaries last year?
In 2024, the NFL’s salary cap for each team is estimated to be around $256 million. Since the NFL has 32 teams, the combined total salary of all NFL teams would be approximately:

So, the total salary cap for all NFL teams in 2024 is roughly $8.19 billion.
Jerry Jones (owner of the Dallas Cowboys) made $400-500 million last year alone, ( Including merchandise and concessions income)


My conclusion is that we haven’t given that much to Ukraine.

GPT is kind of fun. Like a smarter google.
