  @endsult Government funded infrastructure vs human desire. How many folks today you know still have a POTS line, an AOL account, dial up or a T9 texting phone? The infrastructure is inevitably shoved down our throat. Even the dog **** (like EVs)

  Before the AI kings, there was another king. His story tells you exactly how AI race ends. In the 90s, AOL was the internet. If you wanted to go online, you went through AOL. Their CDs were in every mailbox in America. At their peak they were worth more than Disney, Ford and Boeing combined. They even bought Time Warner, the biggest media empire on earth, like it was a snack. Then the internet became a utility. It moved to the companies holding the infra, the telecom guys. And AOL's birthright on the internet vanished. The pipe owners made real money, AT&T still makes billions every year, but at utility margins. The crazy money showed up at the application layer in the next decade. Google, Amazon, Netflix. They didn't own the internet. They just paid for it like everyone else and built the best service on top. The bottom layer was open to anyone at a price, so the top layer went to whoever served the customer best. No birthright. Just service. Now let's look at AI. Today the frontier labs stand where AOL stood in the late 90s. They own the models, they own the access, they are the most valuable companies of this era. But intelligence is already becoming a utility with open weights. The model is turning into the pipe, and the pipe will move to whoever hosts it cheapest. Better chips, cheaper power, data centers next to geothermal plants or up in orbit. Good business, real money, but utility margins. And again, the crazy money will show up one layer above, again. Apps built on open intelligence, paying for it like everyone pays for internet, winning because they serve the customer best. Nobody has a birthright there. Not even the labs. They can compete for it, with everyone else at a level playing field. The internet made AOL the king and then made the internet free. AI is about to do the same thing to its kings.

  @AOL How come my email newsfeed has become full of total garbage from @Daily_Express..!? There is real news happening, but those hacks just rewrite what they’ve just watched on TV - it’s embarrassing! Help!

  Highly recommend anyone still using @AOL to stop immediately. Its impossible to login on different devices and when the verification code isn't received customer service is useless and just hangs up without explanation just saying they "can't proceed with the call"

  @honeymoon250 90 points. Never had AOL, and never had a Walkman.
