<p>I personally don’t think there is anything wrong with this. To the critiques I would say; this is the world we live in now. There are LLMs capable of essentially perfect writing skills. We need to get used to seeing a lot more content either written by or finished by LLMs.<p>The best practise for writing docs with LLMs in my opinion, which you have done, is to write as much as you can first then feed that into an LLM for context, and then work with the LLM to finalise it. Maybe half the time is spent writing and half the time is spent going back and forward polishing the doc.<p>Finally I think it’s important to give the LLM very clear writing guidelines based on your own writing style. I did this by feeding Claude around 20 of my handwritten docs and asked it to analyse my writing style and then add thy to its Claude.md. After a free round of iterations you can get great results!</p>

<p>I’m just curious, why do you think it should be open source. It’s a private company. The source code is their IP</p>

<p>Same for me. I’m not an engineer (but worked with them for 2 decades) and AI has been amazing for me self hosting.<p>For example I could never setup Traefik correctly because I just found it too complicated. Now I have Claude I finally got it setup just the way I want it - the ROI on my Claude subscription has been off the scale!<p>The obvious downside is that I might not really know what exactly I’m implementing and why. I do read all the explanations that Claude gives but it’s hard to retain this information. So there are pros and cons to relying on AI for this kind of stuff I suppose</p>

<p>This is really cool. At the moment we use a Trello board to track all of our house jobs, projects, reminders and issues. Then we have Home Assistant for all of our sensors and such.<p>My only concern about something like this is the WAF. My wife uses Trello. She would likely not use terminal. Also she only uses a phone so lack of mobile app or website is another blocker.<p>But it’s a cool app</p>

<p>My guess is that this is going to be the future for LLMs too. It will get harder or more expensive for AI companies to train their models on the latest information as most sites will block the scrapers or ask for a fee.<p>There might be a future where you’ll have to pay more for an up to date model vs a legacy (out of date) model</p>

<p>100% agree. I think the subscription should be more like $30/$40 per month based on the value you get but of course users would never pay that!<p>So I wonder if there would ever be a middle ground between what artists would accept and what users would pay?</p>

<p>I think it’s a bit disingenuous to say that Spotify “cut” the revenue per stream. Spotify doesn’t have a fixed revenue per stream, payouts are dynamic and based on how much revenue it made and how many streams there are in total. Also Spotify gives something like 80% of its revenue to the music industry.<p>It’s essentially a pie that gets divided up amongst all artists by steam count. If your friend’s garage band are angry that they only get 0.001 cents per stream then they  should be angry at Spotify listeners for streaming too much Taylor Swift!!!<p>Furthermore to pay the artists Spotify has to pay the labels and of course they take a giant cut. This trope of Spotify being an evil corporation is unfair</p>

<p>Spotify is a profitable business now though right? Sure it doesn’t make huge profits due to paying out about 70% to larks but it’s finally profitable</p>

<p>From what i understand, and I’m no expert, is that all the smart money Is able to get in on an IPO early on way before retail investors have a chance. By the time the retail investors have a chance it’s too late and usually the stock dips post IPO as the early investors sell.<p>Of course the stock can rise again eventually.</p>
