Mic Wright 🏳️🌈🏴☠️ (@brokenbottleboy) reported from Poplar, EnglandWhen it first arrived — and I made a blog there within the first two months of its public existence — @tumblr was the near perfect blogging platform. Then AOL destroyed it. Now it’s a horrible jail where I can’t get rid of this dumb screen. Thanks @automatic.

Mike Yardley (@YardleyShooting) reported from City of London, EnglandI was told by a rep ref. AOL: "it's a very old platform.." as if that was an excuse. If it doesn't work, they shouldn't take my money. @TalkTalk is a useless outfit too. I was called for months by fake Indian call centres after their data hack. My home internet sucks. @AOL @Ofcom

Orrin Edenfield, an 🇺🇸 living in 🇬🇧 (@OrrinEdenfield) reported from Eltham, England@benjedwards school library had a dial-up modem (probably 9600 baud) to ISP through school district. At home was local ISP as AOL/Compuserve/etc. never had local numbers for me.

Mike Yardley (@YardleyShooting) reported from City of London, EnglandUtterly useless service from AOL/Yahoo/TalkTalk yet again following my complaint reference the breakdown/failure of their systems. So irritating when you pay for a service and don't get it. I was told by a rep ref. AOL: "it's a very old platform.." as if that was an excuse. @AOL

Chris Farrell (@chrispfarrell) reportedI think OpenAI and Anthropic might be the CompuServe and AOL of the AI era. Does anyone actually think Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Oracle, IBM, X/Twitter, and all of the other big tech companies will just allow these 2 badly run startups to capture the AI market? OpenAI and Anthropic don't have a moat or sustainable competitive advantage. To win they have to not only develop a moat but penetrate some of the most fortified moats. Model quality isn't a moat. Kimi, Grok, Deepseek proved that. Inference will become a commodity utility that requires massive CapEx that neither can finance. Interface is where the moat is the weakest. OpenAI and Anthropic do not own the apps or the OS. The OS and apps are owned by parties who view OpenAI or Anthropic as threats. The OS and apps are where AI choice happens. As if that is not grim enough, AI sovereignty will become an issue. Consumers will want their iCloud data to stay in iCloud, their OneDrive data to stay in OneDrive, etc. Enterprise customers will want AI from their cloud providers to reduce egress and for performance + IP reasons. It is honestly hard to imagine a world where OpenAI and Anthropic survive as they are. They will either morph into companies with entirely different value offerings or die like Compuserve and AOL.

⚡imp0stor⚡₿ (@x_imp0stor) reported@FullMetalTrav I was the architect of the AOL help page deployment on the vendor side for 10 or so years. I optimized and redeployed the entire stack more than one time. It took around 52 servers to handle the traffic spikes and was split between 2 data centers w/ failover.

The Doge Triangle (@TriangleDoge) reported@3YearLetterman We did, you just had to use old style crap bulletin boards on platforms like AOL lol

integrityIsPriceless (@marQspekt) reportedDamn what about the aol folks? Lol

Mike Lin (@mikelin1789) reported@dampedspring Most kids who trade 2x/3x Etfs on "AI stocks" have never heard of AOL, Netscape, WorldCom, Ciena, Sun Micro, Nokia, and more.

Ugam Kamat (@ugamkamat) reportedBefore the AI kings, there was another king. His story tells you exactly how AI race ends. In the 90s, AOL was the internet. If you wanted to go online, you went through AOL. Their CDs were in every mailbox in America. At their peak they were worth more than Disney, Ford and Boeing combined. They even bought Time Warner, the biggest media empire on earth, like it was a snack. Then the internet became a utility. It moved to the companies holding the infra, the telecom guys. And AOL's birthright on the internet vanished. The pipe owners made real money, AT&T still makes billions every year, but at utility margins. The crazy money showed up at the application layer in the next decade. Google, Amazon, Netflix. They didn't own the internet. They just paid for it like everyone else and built the best service on top. The bottom layer was open to anyone at a price, so the top layer went to whoever served the customer best. No birthright. Just service. Now let's look at AI. Today the frontier labs stand where AOL stood in the late 90s. They own the models, they own the access, they are the most valuable companies of this era. But intelligence is already becoming a utility with open weights. The model is turning into the pipe, and the pipe will move to whoever hosts it cheapest. Better chips, cheaper power, data centers next to geothermal plants or up in orbit. Good business, real money, but utility margins. And again, the crazy money will show up one layer above, again. Apps built on open intelligence, paying for it like everyone pays for internet, winning because they serve the customer best. Nobody has a birthright there. Not even the labs. They can compete for it, with everyone else at a level playing field. The internet made AOL the king and then made the internet free. AI is about to do the same thing to its kings.

Hawara (@ein_hawara) reported@Noahpinion It is also pretty easy to imagine a world where a global, distributed network of open protocols that is mostly permissionsless did not happen in this way, and in which we only would have gotten a better AOL.

malinvestment.jpeg (@malinvested) reported@atelicinvest kind of seems like it’s as simple as: can’t price to marginal utility in a competitive market, you have to price to marginal cost. and every day, it looks more and more like tokens will be a competitive, many-player, non-oligopolistic market. it’s not like AOL ever tried to price their email service based on the cost of sending the same messages via USPS, nor could Yahoo / Google price search based on the equivalent cost of the human labor of looking through microfilm at your local library

Del Leonard Jones (@jonesdel) reported@MilkRoadAI Frontier models appear headed down the AOL road. If Anthropic and OpenAI fail, I wonder who gets dragged down with them.
