  I’ll never forget walking home from school one day, which I usually got A’s & B’s but didn’t feel challenged or motivated to be into it enough, when someone on a street corner of the subway handed me a floppy disk of AOL 1.0.

  @rovabtw Used to be standard for me. AOL chat back in the day (son's mother) or Facebook. Never a dating site.

  @SueJ2024 I never had AOL but I had poor dial up internet.

  @asterokosmosvt I'm 18 only cause I'm not American so no AOL and I was too poor to afford a walkman

  @Maegatron3030 19 for me. I never messed with AOL. Those discs we’d get for free though. All the time!

  @Quadripolar_B I was in one in the AOL days. I dominated that **** until they asked me to run it. I still have some of the shows I wrote. I can't believe I ever had the imagination and attention span for that. I gave myself carpal tunnel.

  My playful analogy is we are in the AOL era of AI. Early stage of a revolutionary technology, but the delivery mechanism is still clunky, requiring really dumb concepts like prompt engineering. In 1996, you couldn't even imagine business models like Uber, Netflix, the iPhone, YouTube or Tesla FSD, because the technology wasn't even close to capable or cost effective enough. From 1996-2006 global data volume grew by a factor of 10,000,000x (per Gemini), but that growth was hugely deflationary (wholesale IP transit cost down 99%), i.e. good for the application layer and selectively bad for the pipe owners (telecom). Overall, the mix of massive volume growth offset against gnarly price deflation has been a, net/net, positive thing for telecom investing. Does that hold for the frontier labs? "Intelligence pipe" feels like it can be a pretty damn awesome business, but, like telecoms, the evolution of "intelligence pipe as a business" will be extremely path dependent and will require real business models with attractive unit economics to fund. Obviously most of the 90's era telecoms went bust and the assets were only financially productive for the 2nd or 3rd owners, mostly due to balance sheet issues & the subsequent closing of the capital markets window. Though capital markets have evolved materially since the early 2000's telecom bust with a regulatory environment more supportive of monopolies/oligopolies and private capital markets more supportive of funding massive cash burn (to wit, I think it's a really bad idea for Anthropic to IPO in '26, but what do I know?). So imagine that prior but like 10-100x the size of the internet. Maybe more? As in 1996 when you couldn't even envision Netflix/Uber, the iPhone or Tesla FSD, we have zero idea what 2056 looks like, but the exponential will certainly drive even more upside uncertainty in technology. idk, hard to be structurally bearish on the "intelligence pipe" and subsequently, infrastructure that feeds the pipe (though it feels certain there will be super gnarly potholes, messy shakeouts, and bankruptcies along the way, as we saw in telecom evolution), and ultimately what matters is free cash flow production, which feeds from the intersection of exponential volumes against unit level deflation. What's exciting to me with the improvement in the models, both frontier like Fable/Sol and open source like Kimi/GLM/Deep-Seek, is you are getting *closer* so seeing a real application layer possible in a very intellectually difficult sandbox like public market investing. Nearly four years from GPT 3.5 demo, we still aren't there. We are still in the "AOL era" - too slow, not competent enough, too expensive. But are we exiting that era? It feels to me like we might be. If I had to guess, my guess is the frontier labs continue to be good businesses (and extremely volatile public stocks), mostly due to the reflexive nature of capital markets & talent acquisition. But what seems really obvious, to me, is that 2026-2036 is going to be the era of the application layer, where the Travis Kalanick-style entrepreneur takes this "intelligence pipe" and envisions new & groundbreaking businesses that change the world. That entrepreneurial accelerate will drive durable and accelerating demand for the intelligence pipe, it seems. It's a really exciting time to be alive.

  @krus_chiki True, like I said earlier , after the feds raid you and rough you up and destroy your ****. You can try to explain to some local circuit judge who probably still uses AOL for their email , how you are a part of special protected and exempt group. Or you can submit your forms.

  @jessethanley @PatBergie We’ll hash this out tomorrow but don’t agree. Slack is basically just AOL IM. Think AI pilled are way over thinking how many problems AI directly solves for normal people. It’s not many. Now indirectly sure. Medical breakthroughs, better software, as part of a good home robot. But direct it’s basically just google search.

  @xinspiteofx There has never been one message. If there was, there wouldnt be nearly 50 years of people making sounds about unity. Defining fakes now is worse than the dial aol days. Anyone with the internet is a hc influencer. So define hardcore before going forward with anything else.
