    @quirkyloner I remember being an internet elitist at age 12 and looking down on AOL users (esp AOL chatrooms) as uncultured swine while I, an intellectual, used IRC for my chat needs. While also using AOL for my internet lol

    @4thOfJuly365 You know I absolutely hated AOL but I liked the messenger because I could talk to stupid people I knew on that. Other people used icq and even that's out of business. And then there were some MSN people. I don't know what was up with them. I of course used some crazy open source thing that linked all this stuff together. And yeah, there isn't much that really makes this platform. All that special doesn't really do anything unique other than have people on it. I could scale my platform to millions pretty easily but what's missing from my platform is people. That's the real value

    @Barbara0699 @theliamnissan I’m almost embarrassed to say that I still use an AOL account for shopping, etc. I get enough free stuff from them to make it worthwhile, and they’re great at filtering out the garbage.

    Yahoo has really followed the demise of Excite, Netscape and AOL. Terribly sad. Very poor management.

    @BuzzPatterson Don't ever try and cancel it! It's worse than trying to cancel your AOL account!! We had to lock the card we used because even tho we cancelled it, and they confirmed it... They still kept trying to charge us

    I 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.

    @woofknight 19. Only one I’m missing is the AOL address - I never used AOL despite them sending me many complementary disks, I was into weirder and more obscure BBSes.

    This pro-PRC model industry group from Silicon Valley is interesting but I think not thinking long-term. Why can’t the frontier labs do something like AOL did with its Greenhouse project and say OK, I will let you distill but we want equity in your company and/or a fee. AOL got equity for promotion/placement on the screen. (we committed 30+ million at MarketWatch, helped traffic and the ipo a lot, but worst company I have ever negotiated with). Anyway, apologies for the digression, but why couldn’t this be similar but for distillation access, and the labs like Anthropic and OpenAI could end up with a really interesting portfolio of companies, some of which might become quite valuable, and those smaller firms’ VCs could also benefit? Otherwise, does it really make sense for a huge swathe of the American technology industry to end up dependent on PRC models? Haven’t we learned any lessons from other industries where PRC firms have been able to come in at a very low cost with good products and effectively create dependencies that crowd at all other competitors? And now we are talking about the most transformative industry in many years, and it could be even worse if it’s built in part through some problematic practices in terms of distillation attacks and export control violations, if some of US government’s and frontier labs’ claims are true?
