  key w/ reading older material like this (in QT), is a deep understanding of business models someone new would look at this and say, “why do I care about AOL” I prob would've said the same at a younger age but there's two errors, one is viewing everything ex post vs ex ante (conflating process vs outcome), the second is underestimating how sharp markets are everything is a DCF, and every business model can be mapped to an income statement + fcfs so in that light, nothing is ever really new, nor is nothing ever really old esp during dot com era, if you go back today and read a lot of initiations/bull case takes, they’re far from outrageous, and many went on to prove correct albeit on the wrong time horizon (ie took 10+ years instead of 3-5) AOL's revenue went from $425M in 1995, to nearly $5B in 1999 and ~$1B in earnings/CFO when a company is growing revs that fast, u can make a DCF work for the piece below, I don’t know tech, so I can’t do this exercise for something like AOL - but in other sectors, u can usually bank on the same principles, just with a tighter range of outcomes…why it never hurts to keep running case studies + keep feeding the pattern recognition machine.

  For people with newsletters - do you get more spam reports from AOL/Yahoo users? I have a user which hit mark as spam 3 times in the last month or so, but is still using the product. People tell me that's "normal" for AOL/Yahoo users, that some of them treat mark as spam button as a delete button. How to handle this? Disabling the user?

  It’s true what they say that you care so much less ab **** in your 30’s than your 20’s bc 20’s Valerie would have bullied that pathetic little account into shutting down through pure shame until the only internet they felt safe using was a ******* AOL cd rom from 1996.

  I haven’t been buying the "SaaSpocalypse," but Q1’s nosediving SaaS valuations gave me pause. After a week in SF last month sampling the AI zeitgeist, I have a better feel for where the software sector is heading. It’s the SaaS-to-inference transition, and it’s good. My long-standing view has been that AI is a net positive for the software industry. It radically raises the ceiling for what software products can do. It should dramatically expand the market opportunity for software, just like the on-prem-to-cloud transition did back in the day. Yet many have been freaking out. After all, haven’t SaaS switching costs come down dramatically in SaaS, threatening one of the pillars of the business model? Yes, there’s no doubt that the “cement around the ankles” of legacy SaaS has weakened. At the same time, most legacy SaaS companies have barely scratched the surface of AI innovation while maintaining their historically high retention. This is how it played out in the last major transition: on-prem-to-cloud. Many legacy players (pathetically) ignored cloud innovation for 5-10 years (or longer) and still kept their customers. It turns out that technology is stickier than most in the tech industry believe. Take a look at Bending Spoons, which IPO’d off the back of buying crappy legacy products and jacking up prices because users didn’t want to give up their AOL email or Evernote notes. Tech industry people are not like this. They tend to be part of the very small minority of early adopters. Most people aren’t like this. Neither are most organizations. Legacy software isn’t going to disappear. But if pre-AI software companies don’t embrace AI innovation, their customers will be much less forgiving than on-prem customers 10-20 years ago. AI capabilities are too potent and obviously beneficial. What does embracing AI innovation look like? It means layering intelligent actions into all software. Historically, great software has helped users follow the right workflow. Now, great software must do the workflow by triggering agents to take actions. In other words, inference. The great news for everyone is that this opens the door to consumption-based pricing models that can scale exponentially. For legacy players and startups alike, delivering amazing AI-powered, agentic features is the way to get on the vertical-growth train. Remarkably, the door is still open for legacy players. Intercom’s 3.6b exit to Salesforce is a great example. Of course, new pricing models mean new margin structures. Just as SaaS had lower gross margins than legacy on-prem, expect consumption-priced inference to have lower gross margins. This is OK! We’ve already seen massive wins for inference-selling startups with negative gross margins, like Cursor. Legacy SaaS companies need to find religion on this. Dropping margins is never easy. Lock up the finance team if you have to. The priority is delivering AI-powered value for customers. Everything else is just details.

  @cutoffs_io I am freaking Gaumishang everywhere. Twitter LinkedIn Yahoo AOL you name it I unified my entire online presence decades ago and still refuse to have a Facebook account because first of all that ******* is an ******* and does not have the American people's interests in mind. You can even look up my thesis film at UB, those of you who use it are buffoons. PK12 BA MAH BSEd.🙏🇺🇸

  I said it again and again and again: the current LLMs are equivalent to the dialup of dotcom era. Back then we were effectively paying a software license for AOL. Today, the idea of paying to use the Internet is absolutely absurd. My gut tells me there’s a place for the frontier models. But I don’t see it being in the hands of every consumer when the technology is essentially a commodity. I think the frontier models have a legitimate business that’s going to be much smaller than the market currently prices them at. I also see people totally misunderstand the value proposition for AI. Neither OpenAI nor Anthropic are needed to sustain the AI boom. At worst there’s an air gap. Doesn’t matter if it’s open source or not—same compute is needed. And if the models aren’t as good, then ChatGPT and Claude are needed.
