実際には、こんな感じである(事前に回答の公開の可否を尋ねたら、ユーザーつまり「私」がOKであれば良いとの回答だったので載せる)。
私-pls lmk about credit suisse and the current incident?
ai-Credit Suisse has been involved in several recent incidents. One of the most notable was their involvement in the collapse of Archegos Capital, a family office fund that imploded in March 2021. Credit Suisse was one of the banks that extended margin loans to Archegos, and when the fund could not meet its obligations, the bank was left with billions of dollars in losses.More recently, Credit Suisse has been in the news due to the collapse of supply chain finance firm Greensill Capital. Credit Suisse was one of the major investors in Greensill and offered their clients access to funds managed by the firm. However, Greensill ran into financial trouble and Credit Suisse had to suspend its investment funds, leaving many investors unable to access their money.
私-ok, then could you explain the company's background and their major business strategies, pls?
ai-Sure! Credit Suisse is a multinational financial services company based in Switzerland. It was founded in 1856 and has since become one of the largest banks in the world. Credit Suisse has two main business divisions: Private Banking and Investment Banking. Private Banking provides services to high net worth individuals, such as wealth management and investment advice. Investment Banking provides services such as underwriting, mergers and acquisitions advice, and securities trading for corporations and institutional clients. In addition to its banking services, Credit Suisse has also been involved in a number of scandals over the years. One such scandal involved the bank helping U.S. citizens evade taxes, which resulted in a fine of $2.6 billion. Another scandal involved the bank manipulating foreign exchange rates, resulting in a $135 million fine. Despite these controversies, Credit Suisse has continued to be a major player in the financial industry, and is known for its expertise in wealth management and investment banking. In addition to these incidents, Credit Suisse has also been under investigation for its role in the fraudulent activities of Wirecard, a German payments company that collapsed in 2020. Credit Suisse was involved in providing financing to a Wirecard subsidiary, and there are concerns that the bank did not properly conduct due diligence on the company.

その正確性等賛否両論はあるだろうが、改めて個人でも組織・機関でも、情報公開の大切さを痛感した次第だ。ID=自分は何者かを多面的・多様な視座から捉えて、シンプルに表現することは、コミュニケーションや透明性がより重視される現代『風の時代』の大前提ということでもある。
また、この時代は公平・平等も同様に必須とされるので、時々話題に上るベーシックインカムについても尋ねたので、この回答を載せて、続きはまた次回に。
私-could you explain to me about basic income system pls?
ai-A basic income scheme is a system in which all citizens or residents of a country receive a regular, unconditional income from the government or another institution, regardless of their income level or employment status. The idea is to provide a basic level of financial support to all members of society, and to help reduce poverty and inequality.
The concept of a basic income has been debated for many years, and there are different versions of the scheme proposed by different groups and individuals. Proponents argue that a basic income could provide a safety net for those who are struggling to make ends meet, and could also help to address issues such as income inequality, unemployment, and social exclusion.
However, there are also many challenges associated with implementing a basic income scheme. One of the main challenges is the cost of providing a universal income to all members of society. Depending on the design of the scheme, it could require significant financial resources, and there are concerns about how to fund such a program without creating economic instability or increasing taxes to unsustainable levels.
Another challenge is how to ensure that a basic income does not discourage work or create a culture of dependency. Critics argue that providing a basic income to all citizens, regardless of their employment status, could reduce incentives to work or pursue education and training, and could lead to a decrease in productivity and economic growth.
Despite these challenges, there have been some pilot programs and experiments with basic income schemes in various countries, including Finland, Canada, and the United States. These experiments are aimed at testing different models of a basic income and evaluating their impact on poverty, employment, and other outcomes. However, the results of these experiments are mixed, and it remains unclear whether a basic income scheme is feasible or practical on a larger scale.
