And upgrade frequency. You might give your old iPhone another year or two if the phone isn’t your limiting factor for photo quality.

This is the biggest impact I have noticed in my job.

The inundation of verbose, low SNR text and documents. Maybe someone put thought into all of those words. Maybe they vibed it into existence with a single prompt and it’s filled with irrelevant dot points and vague, generic observations.

There is no way to know which you’re dealing with until you read it, or can make assumptions based on who wrote it.

Americans and their driers.

Flash was an unreasonably effective way to build web apps.

All zero marginal cost businesses. What is the path to profitability where costs increase closer to linearly with each new API request?

Anyone who thinks an executive considers them necessary or irreplaceable in the current environment is fooling themselves.

Workplace safety, environmental protection and human rights laws will never be enforced in the manufacturing industry because they cannot be enforced on the Chinese manufacturing industry.

Western governments would rather citizens lose some rights and years off their life than tolerate a world where their industries become dependent on Chinese manufacturing.

Western governments could make models trained on stolen IP toxic if they wanted.

It may not be worth it. The trade off of model capability vs the value of IP law might be worthwhile.

But western governments should show a little dignity and openly make that trade off. We don’t need to appeal to “but China”.

I think we all know they won’t.

I am genuinely curious though to see the strategies they employ to absolve themselves of guilt and foolishness.

Is there precedent for the entire exec and management class embracing a new trend to this kind of extent, then it blowing up in their faces?

Can you learn a lot? Or do you get instant answers to every question without learning anything, as OP suggests?

Does it satisfy customer support requests at a much higher rate than previous generations?

Every time I’ve encountered an AI first-line support agent I still find myself looking for the quickest escalation path to a real human just like before.

For someone guarding the platform from weaksauce nonsense comments you picked a strange one to defend.

I was commenting on the weakness of the analogy. There’s nothing in any of the 4 entities mentioned other than the author’s opinion about them.

Sorry my comment missed the mark for you.

“Kagi is bad. As evidence I present Siri.”

Google talking about the advertising industry as something external to itself sure is something.

My iPhone occasionally displays an interrupt screen to remind me that my weather app has been accessing my location in the background and to confirm continued access.

It should also do something similar for apps making chatty background requests to domains not specified at app review time. The legitimate use cases for that behaviour are few.

I agree. I’m on the $10 professional plan and honestly if I’d received an email offering this for an extra $5 per month it would have been a no brainer for me.

Please Kagi, don’t take too much of a haircut or let paying for this eat into the core search budget.
