ππππ π± (@louiswaincat) reported@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

Michael Morrell (@michaelmorrell) reported@immaterial_ink @solanamobile fully onchain chat protocol like aol instant messenger. pgp for dms. powered by memo program or something. biggest blocker is adoption friction i.e. getting it in an existing wallet app, and/or getting pkeys imported, and establishing a network effect

Alex Hernandez πΊπΈ π« π (@ahernandez85a) reported@CNNEnemedia @VivaLaAmes11 My Dad had AOL but I never did I went right to Netcom from those trial disks they used to give out at Micro Center, so no chat rooms just email and web

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, and they can complicate things very easily. 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.

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.

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.

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.

Rebecca Mellander (@RebeccaRebecky) reported@MushKat LOL. I still have my AOL email. I use it for those registrations I hope never to communicate with again. And guess what? AOL has never told me I am exceeding my storage limit -- unlike Google, who contacts me constantly. And I don't ever clean out my AOL account.

Phil McCoxwell (@PhilMccoxwell) reported@MustangMan_TX Yay! Its AOL. She mustβve hired a civil engineering firm with expertise in roads and bridges to fix her teeth. For some reason I imagine **** flies buzzing around her.

puristini (@jurisdoctrine) reportedI βwalkedβ onto the internet using AOL online, the dial-up internet service that functions via telephone wire. Itβs a phone call. Used to be 14.4 kbps and that is way lower than 30 Mb of now. Via cable or fiber optics. I am completely just a person. We reset the internet.
