It will kill the social value of the internet. May be a good thing - internet will be used for information and tools, communities will become much more in-person.

No, that was a marketing gimmick. It is entirely ineffective past the first ~100k tokens, outputting total junk. That’s part of why the Llama 4 launch was such a catastrophe.

It's like having the world's best camera but with no memory card. Yeah, it can capture the moment perfectly, but the moment is gone instantly, leaving no trace. There's something deeply unsettling about that.

It's called terminal lucidity. I've read cases where people become as sharp as they used to be, and even remember details they were told during their dementia, when people wouldn't think they even have the ability to store new memories. It's interesting that it happens so soon before death, when "the veil is thin" as some would say. The data is always there; it seems the mechanisms to retrieve it are what causes the problem. NDEs and terminal lucidity might be hinting that the data is stored "in the cloud".
