OpenAI and Microsoft re-negotiate partnership to support potential OpenAI IPO, Klarna reverts strategy of replacing customer service staff with AI chatbots, and a new cement-based battery
In the other reading list, the vast majority require logging in to read the articles. This is tedious when done manually. I have not set up an AI agent to perform the login process. You have spoken about doing so on All-In pod, and I see why.
One of the articles had a readability ratio so low I stopped reading it. The ratio is the space used for text divided by the space used for advertisement. I accept the advertisement model of the internet, but the average ratio is tending toward unreasonable, which drives up paid subscription sites, which becomes tedious (see above).
This is what the end of the Roman Empire must have felt like, but now it is the Internet Empire that is sinking. I had fun while it lasted. But in your spare time, could you fix the internet as a service to humanity, please?
The decline of the Roman Empire is variously ascribed to excessive spending on handouts to plebes or on maintaining up to 30 paid professional legions, even if the government corruption and moral decline make for a better story.
Good pushback because that was not the conclusion I (inexpertly) tried to make. And you made me laugh as you probably did.
My lament was how people feel when something powerful begins to collapse. The reasons you cite can be reasons for Rome’s demise. Advertising was not.
I don’t object to advertising per se. Without natural constraints, I fear it will crowd out the content that draws people to view websites in the first place.
The real value comes when prompts are tightly coupled with the business process, orchestration layers, and a clearly defined operating model.
As someone who specializes in prompt engineering, I’ve seen firsthand that it doesn’t make sense for tech or data science alone to “hold the pen.” Crafting prompts that truly deliver requires deep experience in building departments, defining roles, mapping procedures, and aligning with target operating models. That, in my view, is product strategy. Some tech orgs are still missing the bigger picture: prompts aren’t just language—they’re the engine of an integrated ecosystem.
Amazon leadership in automated material handling technology has been established with 2012 acquisition of Kiva Systems, the expert in guided vehicles for warehouses. Amazon Robotics deployed well over 750,000 units since.
Note that these are carts following yellow lines on the warehouse floor or handler arms akin to a welder on the auto conveyer belt. Not a homebound C-3PO, they may start using transformers tech, but are largely unrelated to the advances in LLMs.

But excessive advertising?

LLM prompts aren’t static inputs—they’re dynamic workflows.
