OpenAI's product execution has been impeccable.

It will be interesting to see how the companies trying to compete respond.

The recent success of ChatGPT shows that the current search experience is likely deprecated. With LLMs, you can get information immediately that directly answers your query.

ChatGPT has its limits too though - it's not always right, you don't have options other than to re-ask or regenerate if the one answer doesn't satisfy what you need, we're limited to only text, and the experience may be just a bit too contained/convergent. It feels like it's going to take another product or iteration to really get there.

The question I keep asking - what does the future of problem-solving and finding knowledge on the internet look like in an ideal world given the tools that we have or could now build?

I believe Microsoft invested $1B in OpenAI, so I imagine they have access to everything that OpenAI has created.

The Higgs itself was conceived on paper and proven in the LHC.

Do we lack theories that can be conceived on pen and paper just the ability to test any of them?

P2P isn't bad thing though right? Or many would argue it's a great thing.

Web3 is systematized, open, and properly incentivized P2P. That sounds like a great value prop. This has allowed an ecosystem to be built to push it into the mainstream which is his primary challenge with P2P

You don't give Ethereum credit for USDT and USDC?

Ethereum introduced the concept of decentralized compute resources, in which it was also a first mover. Judging Ethereum in its current state feels like judging the internet in the 1980's and saying it's not a value provider.

You can't get to product-market fit without time and effort, but the amount you put in can be scaled up as you get a positive response. If you're iterative, you can adapt your GTM and funds invested based on feedback.

Great example of how early startups are about finding product-market fit, not trying to check boxes that you hope lead to success

I think what it really shows is how product-market fit is more important than nearly everything else combined

A lot of the time that pattern is written, it's because the APIs from the web and Node are different and will break if you call something that's not isomorphic. Perhaps Deno fixes that as well and the pattern isn't needed in the first place. Obviously not every case though.
