Agreed.

I pretty much stopped shopping around once Gemini 2.0 Flash came out.

For general, cloud-centric software development help, it does the job just fine.

On: OpenAI is building a social network?

i said this 3 months ago:

2) B2C: New social network where people and AIs can have fun together

OpenAI has a good brand name RN. Maybe pursuing further breakthroughs isn't in the cards, but they could still be huge with the start that they have.

I wrote my Senator, Dick Durbin, prior to the November 2024 election, begging him to do something to shore up the legislature, prior to Trump's possible return to office.

He responded that he's not allowed to discuss campaigning and that I can instead donate to his 'friends' network (PAC?)

I don't think the Dem establishment really opposes Trump at all...
