The safeguard against a rabid dog is euthanasia.

I don't know, all the billboards I ever see are for restaurants, concerts, and ambulance chasers. Let's ban Meta and Google instead.

The term Crippleware is ablest and we should probably stop using it.

That said, I like the frugly approach. The cosmetic upgrade approach in Fortnite the author mentioned is also implemented in a new game I've been playing called The Finals. It is nice not to have winning behind a paywall.

There should be a brand of poppers called Women's Tears.

I’m too much of a bitchy queen to get past the author’s writing style, so I only got through a few paragraphs.

At the end of the day, the incumbents are mostly providing the APIs or the hardware to do anything significant. There may be a handful of outliers, but it seems a vast majority of AI startups these days are a new iteration of resellers.

Before, it was hosting that was resold, now it is APIs or if their customers have any gumption TPUs and GPUs, which is arguably still hosting.

I don’t see startups ruling AI.

Also, a lot of people misattribute the label of startup to established companies. I could go on a rant about tech journalists being the cause, but I’ll just say OpenAI is not a startup.
