to be clear, this isn’t a pro- or anti-AI take.
The take is “applying AI to improve browsing” is “give a fish 16 gears to improve their fixie” territory. Not even wrong.
Figure out what you want to enable people to do, then whether AI is or isn’t part of the solution.
“browse” ain’t it.

8 is ludicrous. Easily best Star Wars ever made. 9.5 minimum
Andor wraps up an amazing 2 seasons by feeding directly into Rogue One like we always knew it would, giving everybody but its main character a satisfying send off.

Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. It’s always “what’s that noise?” and “who’s that stranger?” which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

Hilarious how this isn't just a drop of 32% quarter-to-quarter, it's that this is a huge miss (around 15% lower) of already-lowered estimates; the analysts still haven't "groked" that the Tesla brand is trashed.

Same. The plan I was on was going up to $25/mo. No thanks
They're gonna do fine without me, but FWIW I cancelled Netflix today. Been a subscriber since the start of the DVD days. But it's my least-used streaming service and now it's $18/month without ads. Not even my twentysomethings wanted to make a case to keep it.

I said this a year ago elsewhere, but I’ll say it again here: It's impossible to overstate how much the big tech CEOs & VCs are being radicalized within their bubble. The level of paranoia & contrived victimization is off the charts, and they increasingly only consume media that they have funded.

Twitter is self immolating but honestly it's taking the attention from the pretty awful situation with reddit. We knew Elon was a bumbling idiot but the reddit API fiasco has me way sadder. This era of the internet just sucks.
