  While we're bringing back MySpace, let's please bring back AOL/AIM, so that I can ditch all of this crap and go meet back up with the other 38-ish-year-olds with lower back pain. We'll interact and log off for the day, and then log back on after Mom is finished with the phone.

  I've never experienced psychosis, but in 2020 my friend who had bipolar experienced severe psychosis that resulted in his death. I met J when I was a teen back in the AOL days. I was going through a lot and he told me to get my *** back to school, finish high school and go to uni

  Plausible paths for Google: 1. They will also start falling behind in TPU design. TPUs will cease to even notionally be a realistic competitor to big players. Maybe they'll sell the IP and TSMC allocation to OpenAI or Anthropic or AMD, or spin it out into an underresourced separate entity. 2. GCP will do very well for a time. Existing LLM inference capacity is going to get more valuable over time, commanding higher prices. At some point, they'll be left with second-rate hardware that's been dramatically outcompeted by ultra-efficient RSI hardware and data centers. It's not inconceivable that their TPUs will literally have the HBM chips pried off of them to put into better hardware by a competitor. 3. Search will have gone from merely declining in usage to declining rapidly in revenue. This will continue for some time as a viable business, like AOL, Juno and yahoo, but with a shrinking user base of aging retirees or barely-online people. They will embrace every dark pattern in the book to adsmaxx, but their core "indexing and understanding all the world's information" will have long since been done much better by model companies. 4. They'll probably release a quite good Gemini or two from inertia this year. Not necessarily SOTA, but good enough to cause a stock rally. This is probably the last place for someone like Sergei Brin to assert control and save the company. 5. Eventually the massive amount of debt taken on building GCP and getting related as buybacks will catch up with them after a credit downgrade. They'll get ripped apart for scraps at the org level, with stakes in various AI companies constituting most of their value, like yahoo! did with alibaba. Sundar Pichai will walk away enormously wealthy having maximized ******** out of some shareholder value.

  A couple live CRE underwriting tests using the three major LLMs: Q1: "Review this lease. Is it NNN, gross or something else?" (The gotcha here was a Prop 13 protection clause.) Grok 4.5 Expert: Nailed it (2:22 mins) Chat 5.6 Sol Pro: Nailed it (5:44mins) Claude Opus 5: Whiff (no time given) Not only did not Claude fail to pick up the exemption to a sale-related property tax increase, but specifically called out that on sale the buyer COULD benefit from a substantial property tax passthrough to the commercial tenant. Oops. (FWIW our attorney using an aol email address easily picked this up) Q2: "This month's PG&E bill was $5,800 - use this annual bar graph to estimate the full year's expense." Grok 4.5 Expert: $74,500 Chat 5.6 Sol Pro: $75,000 Claude Opus 5: $74,400 Very tight range - useful little hack since we sometimes don't get a full year's utility bills to underwrite, and have to eyeball off these sketchy bar charts. The moral of course is that these systems can be amazing, helpful, even indispensable underwriting tools - but can lead you astray if not used properly.

  I never had a MySpace and now I feel like a huge part of my life i missed out on. I did do the aol chat rooms for a longer than necessary time but that was before and after the state hospital. I am too old I am just now again realizing this for the fifty millionth time in life.

  @distributedkv Once compute is available we will leave this current token war setup. This is much like the AOL charge by the minute internet back in the 90's. Then some brave souls that where smaller just said unlimited internet for 20 bucks a month. Then the communication companies offered DSL and access to the service for $50 a month. More than likely we will have some small data centers maybe 10 racks serving a neighborhood. Do you really need 2 trillion perimeters to write posts, summarize emails?
