  @Ratsukare 18, but only because no AOL in Europe and being too poor for a watered, lol. But I actually used real floppy, wiggly discs where you could punch a whole I the side to use the backside, too.

  @RetroTechorDie At a stretch, I could understand them wanting to shut down the Nina network if the Italians plan to revive AOL chat. But going after someone who makes a video, especially one with a positive tone toward the AOL brand, makes absolutely no sense.

  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* to 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 we are getting closer. So are we exiting the AOL 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.

  These kids will NEVER understand the prayers we threw up in the air so that the internet would connect, the hope that no one picked up the house phone to interrupt the internet, and the image of that running man across the screen from the AOL cd

  @IronySeeker @Kalshi AOL, Worldcom, Enron, Lehman Brothers: all too big to fail

  AOL was the first time most people used the internet back in the 90s. Using a phone line and dialing up the service meant you were connecting to the world, it felt like a magical experience. Hearing 'You got mail' and your AIM notifications going off was the first dopamine hit for people being addicted to social platforms - but it was different. You were not online for long durations - usually, just to login for 5 - 15 minutes to check your messages, read some quick news, and log off. Mom had to use the phone after all and you couldn't stay on all day. Today's internet is an always on experience, making it hard for people to disconnect and touch grass / hang out with family and friends.

  @YomiQuinnley I have 14, I just never got an AOL address because I grew up poor. I didn't get Internet until 2005.
