This has to be one of the most rapid enshittification cycles in history.

Personally, I'll either spin up my own LLM or go back to life without them before I let ChatGPT advertise to me.

Recent events [1] should make it clear that the "golden age" of commercial LLMs is over, and that companies have moved to the advertising + engagement farming phase of the technology now. Which is sad to see since I don't get the impression limits have been reached on the core technology yet, but I suppose you can't fund things with high benchmark scores.

The golden age that lasted all of a few months?

Or Anthropic?

Anthropic will likely go a similar way - what moat, what funding source does Anthropic have that OpenAI does not?

As LLMs keep getting better, I hope there will always be a Kagi of LLMs.
