  @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.

  @mezmerelda007 @502KYGal @GretchenVoss64 Aussie I need your help , I think I know how to prove that Jen did the 2:27am Safari / Google search , ok so you have to understand how Safari works , its not a search engine so it sends your request to other search engines like Google , AOL or Bing , OK so wouldn't those search engines have a timestamp , for their own records of what was requested on what date , and the exact time requested ? But how do we get this info ? From Google history ? Or can Karen subpeona those search engines that Safari asked ?

  @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.

  @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

  @MeganTStevenson not to mention AOL Mail! My 91 year-old uncle was on AOL mail until he died. My guess is that he was a representative customer.
