  @visegrad24 Probably comes with AOL dialup service, and no toilet, only a bucket.

  This pro-PRC model industry group from Silicon Valley is interesting but I think not thinking long-term. Why can’t the frontier labs do something like AOL did with its Greenhouse project and say OK, I will let you distill but we want equity in your company and/or a fee. AOL got equity for promotion/placement on the screen. (we committed 30+ million at MarketWatch, helped traffic and the ipo a lot, but worst company I have ever negotiated with). Anyway, apologies for the digression, but why couldn’t this be similar but for distillation access, and the labs like Anthropic and OpenAI could end up with a really interesting portfolio of companies, some of which might become quite valuable, and those smaller firms’ VCs could also benefit? Otherwise, does it really make sense for a huge swathe of the American technology industry to end up dependent on PRC models? Haven’t we learned any lessons from other industries where PRC firms have been able to come in at a very low cost with good products and effectively create dependencies that crowd at all other competitors? And now we are talking about the most transformative industry in many years, and it could be even worse if it’s built in part through some problematic practices in terms of distillation attacks and export control violations, if some of US government’s and frontier labs’ claims are true?

  @syruproxy We met on an AOL aviation message board. 🤭 We crossed paths many times as kids but never met. We met in person a few weeks after nonstop phone calls and we've never been apart. I was on furlough from the airline I flew with, and I said no when they called me back. 📟 didn't work in the countries I flew to and we were inseparable by then. 30 years ago. 🩶

  @MeganTStevenson not to mention AOL Mail! My 91 year-old uncle was on AOL mail until he died. My guess is that he was a representative customer.

  @LoewyLawFirm Wasn’t that AOL? I still have my @ me - I’ll never get rid of it. For those that don’t know it was a paid for service to sync all your devices before that was normal and free.

  Wow surprisingly tone deaf post from an @openai top executive. Feels like AOL or Compuserve arguing about how dangerous and bad for innovation an open internet would be. Permissionless innovation. That’s what open weight models offer.

  @NavigationDeck I am at the point in life where I am not ashamed to admit: - I never dipped a toe in the Apple ecosphere -I never had an AOL account -My last video game was Atari Pong -I admire Tesla but remain disinterested -I learned person to person skills w/ a paper route
