@caseynewton@mike They’re taking the web out behind their server farm shed to shoot it.
Meanwhile none of the other AI stuff (“organize your receipts”) actually works well enough to be useful because you have to second-guess it constantly; this has been done before and more accurately with boring algorithms like OCR and string matching.
@caseynewton "...a company that once proudly served as an entry point to a web that it nourished with traffic and advertising revenue has begun to abstract that all away into an input for its large language models."
Curious to see if a LLM, once built, can sustain itself without new human generated content. Why build your new 'fields of dreams' on the web, if users are never going to come anyway.
