That's the thing. We know what happens when Substack wins, because we've seen it so many times before.
If they succeed in becoming the only game in town for newsletters, then their service will quickly degrade and become more expensive to use. It's an old, old playbook.

And, given the comments (thank you for all the considered ones), I want to make my position clear: AI is a general purpose technology that will impact many aspects of life & work soon. Some impacts will be good & others very bad. Mitigating the bad & building on the good is key to all of our futures

One thing I like about LLMs is that it means kids who formerly had no venue to develop this skill now have a great place to practice and get better at it. Question-asking is near to being the master skill for human beings...

Yeah that's a great point: a lot of the skill involved in using LLMs is getting really good at asking clear, unambiguous questions of the text you dump into the system - and that's a skill in itself, entirely independent of AI systems
