It would be nice to add (2024) to the title, this is not news (see: https://research.google/blog/a-decoder-only-foundation-model...)

It was very interesting, I liked your style of explaining both at user level but also at more technical level.

While I agree with your comment, this sentence:

Not a single button to download the app on the landing page.

A lot of info about the company who made it, a lot of info about how bad other actors are, and a lot about requesting funding, but not a single video, neither how to explore the platform or download anything.

I guess this is not made for users...

Others prefer to have hobbies outside of coding, and that's fine.

I get your point, but that's not exactly the case. Madrid is built there not by coincidence, there are a lot of underground rivers that cross the region, but then the city was built on top of them.

They are obligated by law to create this content

See: https://www.innovationmcc.com/post/spain-will-now-protect-it...

I would say that more importantly than winning or losing a debate is to know which debate you should participate.
