Mark Newman (@Mark_BeerArt) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England@liampowersjr @NorthmanTrader @Tesla Fully agree by the way, Tesla is strange, but I think some of this isn't just cars but their battery technology....never understood it myself. Never understood AOL time Warner, even wrote a paper on it for my MBA and got the lowest mark out of all my papers.
-

john v. variety ❤️.U.∞ OUT NOW (@johnvvariety) reportedI like that you can ask AI for video game cheat codes and if a guy ever gets ***** or not. It makes me feel like a child on AOL again. Looking up gamefaqs while saying SlipknotFan42 has never kissed a girl French style

Content Soul✌️🎯🩵 (@rajeshkodavati) reported5/ The payoff is already showing: OpenAI signed on as TCS's data centre business's first customer, starting with 100 megawatts of capacity as part of the $500 billion Stargate initiative. (aol) Tata Group will also roll out ChatGPT Enterprise internally.

Heath Weaver (@heathweaver) reported@qlypai For @twigl_it I don't think of it as a wrapper around a frontier model, but I guess you could say that. In my view, all frontier models will follow the path of AOL. It's moving rapidly along the same trajectory. AOL mail, chat were all massively popular; AOL's valuation went to the moon, etc. But then dedicated tools came in, and against the single focus, AOL couldn't compete. Once SpaceX launches space-based datacenters along with Starlink, the game will be up. My bet is that the harness is where the value is at. I have really zero loyalty to a particular model; I just want the highest raw intelligence with the ability to throttle down for work that doesn't need it. It's not even clear to me what Anthropic or OpenAI think is actually going to happen. I am sure they can see from their own metrics that like 95% of users are just using it as a glorified search engine. The mass does not care at all about the companies and will use whatever is best and free (i.e., ad-supported). In the long run, Google will likely win. So a true wrapper, like simply putting the API with a bit of context, will become irrelevant to higher levels of intelligence, but I don't think the frontier models can ever win against a superior harness on a really specific proprietary data pool. I am betting that people would rather have more control over their own data, be able to better direct context, and be able to use the best-performing self-healing skills with tools with the most intelligent model that is out there.

Aakash Gupta (@aakashgupta) reportedResearchers tracked 344,753 websites over 18 months to map where American attention actually goes online. The answer is email. Gmail alone is 16% of all desktop time. Add Yahoo, Outlook, and AOL, and inboxes eat nearly a quarter of every hour Americans spend at a computer. That's double the combined total of Facebook, X, Reddit, Instagram, Discord, and WhatsApp. The legacy numbers are the wild part. Yahoo Mail, at 3.71%, gets more attention than ChatGPT, Reddit, and Netflix combined. AOL Mail, a service most people assume died with dial-up, beats Instagram and Discord combined. Yahoo still has roughly 225 million active mail users, skewing Gen X and Boomer: people who opened an account in 1999 and never saw a reason to leave. Google Search sits at just 2.33%. The front door of the entire internet gets less time than Yahoo's inbox, because search is engineered to end fast. Every second you spend on a results page is a second Google failed. The chart measures desktop, which explains the shape. Your phone is where you play. Your computer is where you work. And the work of being an American in 2026, the bills, the receipts, the school notices, the job applications, still runs through a protocol invented in 1971. Strip away 30 years of apps and the desktop internet is a post office with better graphics.

Shraddha Bharuka (@BharukaShraddha) reported20. Connected Account Vulnerability The Situation: Back in 2010, you finally made the jump from Yahoo, Hotmail, or AOL to Gmail. To make the transition easier, you linked your old legacy account to automatically forward everything into your new Gmail inbox. You haven't logged into that Yahoo account in a decade. The Mechanics: Legacy email platforms like Yahoo and AOL have notoriously outdated, porous spam filters compared to Google's billion-dollar machine learning infrastructure. By using POP3 or IMAP to pull that mail into Gmail, you are essentially bypassing Google's frontline defenses and piping raw, unfiltered internet sewage straight into your pristine Gmail ecosystem. The Fix: It is time to sever the cord. Go to Gmail Settings > Accounts and Import. Look under "Check mail from other accounts." Delete the legacy connections. If you absolutely still need access to that ancient Hotmail account for banking resets, log into it directly, aggressively clean it, and set up incredibly strict server-side rules there before allowing it anywhere near your primary hub.

Francisco De Magalhaes 🇿🇦 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇦🇷 (@FrankDe99908) reported@4thOfJuly365 Funny enough the one I never had was an AOL account. Otherwise all of the rest. Was born in 1970.

Vadim (AI, ⋈) (@zacodil) reported@pe_remek Flat-rate dial-up ran on the same circuit-switched lines as per-minute dial-up. AOL sold $19.95 unlimited in 1996 with the phone network unchanged. If circuit switching forced per-minute billing, that plan could not have existed. It did, and millions bought it. So the meter was a pricing choice, not a property of the wire. It came off dial-up by decision, and Anthropic just announced the same move for its best model: folding it back into a flat subscription.
