THE PHILOSOPHY: Why We WIN

1964 BASIC → 2024 FREEDOM

At Dartmouth, they democratized computing. Today, we democratize EVERYTHING.

NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED - LLM DOES IT FOR YOU

The revolutionary truth about General Bots BASIC:

  • Tell the LLM what you want in plain English
  • LLM generates the BASIC code for you
  • You review, adjust if needed (still in plain English!)
  • Deploy immediately

Example conversation:

You: "I need to check emails every morning and summarize them"
LLM: "Here's your BASIC script:"
SET SCHEDULE "9"
TALK "Checking morning emails..."
emails = GET EMAILS FROM "inbox"
FOR EACH email IN emails
  summary = LLM "Summarize this: " + email.content
  TALK summary
NEXT

NO SUBSCRIPTIONS. NO SURVEILLANCE. NO SURRENDER.

  • No monthly fees bleeding you dry
  • No data mining by big tech
  • No "sorry, you've exceeded your API quota"
  • No "please upgrade to Premium for this feature"
  • YOUR DATA. YOUR SERVERS. YOUR RULES.

THE FREEDOM MANIFESTO

AUTOMATION WITHOUT SUBSCRIPTION!
INTELLIGENCE WITHOUT SURVEILLANCE!
ENTERPRISE WITHOUT EXTORTION!

THE SUBSCRIPTION COMPARISON

THE MOMENT OF TRUTH

THREE PATHS:

  2. Keep begging for IT budget increases
  3. INSTALL GENERAL BOTS and invest that money in growth

YOUR HARDWARE IS READY

That RTX 3060 from three years ago? It runs enterprise LLM inference beautifully. That decommissioned server? Perfect for 500 users. Your laptop? Can handle development and testing.

THE OPEN SOURCE ADVANTAGE

  • Audit the code yourself
  • Modify anything you need
  • Contribute improvements back
  • Join a global community

Deployment Flexibility:

  • Run on YOUR hardware

  • Move between providers freely
  • Delete when YOU decide

In 1964, BASIC freed programming from the priesthood. In 2024, General Bots frees enterprises from subscription slavery. With LLM assistance, ANYONE can build automation - no programming degree required. This isn't just software - it's INDEPENDENCE DAY!
