  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, 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.

  while every fund on earth chases the next AI-native SaaS, a Milan company just went public buying the ones everyone left for dead. Bending Spoons closed its first day up 40% on the Nasdaq, roughly an $18B valuation. their portfolio is AOL, Vimeo, Evernote, WeTransfer, Eventbrite, Meetup. the stuff you probably have a dormant login for. the consensus says pre-AI software is a melting ice cube. anyone can spin up a Notion clone in a weekend, so the whole cohort trades like it's going to zero. the CEOs of those companies believe it too, which is why they sell to Bending Spoons for a number that looks insane on paper and reasonable in a spreadsheet. the market keeps mispricing one thing. a brand people already trust with their files, their notes, their event tickets is the hardest asset to manufacture in software right now. AI features are cheap. 500 million monthly users who opened the app this week cost a decade to build. so Bending Spoons buys the loyalty, cuts payroll to the studs, centralizes engineering in Milan, ships AI on top, raises prices, holds forever. Evernote's personal plan went up 63% because the switching cost was always higher than the sticker.

  @4thOfJuly365 Funny enough the one I never had was an AOL account. Otherwise all of the rest. Was born in 1970.

  This is exactly the kind of infrastructure-level integration that proves we’re past the build phase 👀 Ripple successfully tested as a blockchain enhancer for the SWIFT network (Hyperledger + ISO 20022) back in June 2025, and now it’s moving toward actual integration. Remember when the internet went from heavy build-out to mass adoption in 1998? I was an AOL shareholder and worked at UUNET selling the pipes. The parallels with XRP and the Internet of Value today are identical — regulatory clarity + real infrastructure hooks = adoption phase. We’re entering the Green Zone. 🍻

  @GraduatedBen You still don't have a point, and you ignored all of mine, which made your initial points impossible. But let's go through this comment, too. The 2000 by-right ruling is real and it's well-known, but it's basically irrelevant for your point. The buildout pace for DCs is well-documented! Through 2013, the county permitted an average of 6 DCs a year, then with streamlining in 2014, they got that up to ~14/yr. Circa 2000-10, Loudoun added ~37k Asians, when the industry was a few dozen buildings employing a couple thousand people, half of whom were contractors (and thus irrelevant). AOL alone had more engineers in Dulles than the whole DC industry did, and AOL's former Loudoun HQ was eventually converted into a DC. That is to say, office tech employment that *actually* imports engineers and such preceded and were replaced by DCs. If concurrency is your standard, then the 2020s make your theory look terrible because permitted square footage went from 26.4m in 2021 to 53m in 2025, while Loudoun's Asian population grew only 5.2% since 2020 (slowest rate in decades). The point (?) about Prince William County gets the geography wrong, too. The DC district covers 9,500 acres of industrially zoned land along Rt 28/Innovation near Manassas, which is not Gainesville or Bristow. The ZIPs hosting the overlay's operating DCs are 20109 (10.3% Asian), 20110 (5.4%), and 20112 (6.9%), which means basically being at or below the 10% county baseline. The Gainesville-area project is the separate PW Digital Gateway initiated by QTS in 2021, with a comp plan approved in 2022, then litigated, leaving essentially nothing there during the demographic window you've described. The 18% figure you cited is misleading because it's clearly not just Indians. You only get from 14.6% "Asian alone" to ~18% using "Alone or in any combination", while the county baseline 10% is based on "Asian alone", and Bristow 20136 is 10.8% (13.1% combo), which is nowhere near 18%. Adding 12,000 Asians since 2020 is also just wrong for PWC. It was 10.3% Asian (~49.7k) in 2020, and the latest ACS puts it at 48,594 (9.9%) Asians, with the Asian population estimated to have fallen ~2.5% since 2020. I think maybe you looked at ACS 5-year windows straddling 2020, conflating earlier growth? The actual Asian surge in PWC was 2010-20 (+19.85k), with 9 tracts >15% Asian at 2020, before Gateway existed, and before most overlay campuses operated. Also, Indian + Pakistani are only 33% of PWC's Asians (9,642 + 6,592). Filipino, Korean, and Vietnamese communities are the plurality of the area's Asians. In Fairfax, Indians *are* 23% of the Asian population, but Loudoun is 50% Indian, not 60%, and you only get to ~61% by adding Pakistanis. But this just reflects earlier waves of settlement anyway. Fairfax's Asians date to the 1980s-90s, and Loudoun and western PWC were built after 2,000, during the era of H-1Bs. This undermines your theory, because EVERY post-2000 tech metro exurb in America is Indian plurality regardless of the presence of DCs! Frisco, Forsyth County GA, Edison, etc. If Indians were a DC signature, you'd expect them in Boydton, Quincy, and Prineville, but they're nonexistent. You just kind of skipped over all of this and failed to explain why the DC boom hasn't also been an Indian boom, which is what your theory predicts.

  I’m sure this will sound like the roar of a dinosaur, but as a (remaining) AOL user, I had a serious tech issue of access, called them, they answered, and a very helpful, patient human walked me through a reprogramming procedure with one of my computers to restore access. Easy

  LOL, compete with other streaming mergers. Paramount+ works worse than AOL dial-up in the 1990's. It sucks so bad they need help!

  @SarahSevans2000 I never had AOL not sure why I missed that. Though I must've created one to get free Internet access for a minute
