The conversation between human and AI assistant.
There's a saying that goes,  "There is no such thing as a free lunch". Is there such a thing as a free lunch?
That makes sense. What about services that are free for a limited time, like trial subscriptions? Is that a free lunch?
That can be a gray area. While the service may be free for a limited time, the hope is that you will eventually pay for it if you enjoy it enough. Additionally, signing up for a trial subscription may require that you provide your personal information, which can be seen as a form of payment.
