    This sounds great for readers, but why would authors start using such platforms? It seems all downsides for them.

    I could never get started with kermit - it's a huge ecosystem into itself, with its own scripting languages, file transfer protocols, etc... Instead of trying to buy into that, I f…

    Pretty sure that person is completely wrong - there is zero evidence that there is anything on AI studio's server, all the data is in the JSON file on google drive. That's why it d…

    I have some IoT devices I made for myself. The all connect to the central server (the one I run myself of course). It is much, much easier to do things when central server is aroun…

    The whole context of "quishing" seems pretty stupid to me. Any link on the internet can lead to a phishing page. Ads lead to phishing page. Search results lead to phishing pages. U…

    And my point is, no matter how advanced you are going to make that prompt, AI will find a way to mess it up. If you say, "A, B and C must be true", then eventually an agent will fi…

    Another possibility is that JSON file is not a link, but an actual chat state. There is nothing server-side on Google AI studio, that JSON is the only thing there is. So if you del…

    Advice for those who got inspired by this: don't repeat this design. Author is doing the very ugly soldering job right next to 110V live wires. The ugly soldering is normally not a…

    No, that post says the file is "marked with special metadata" - it does not say that is is only metadata. So my theory is that Google Drive file = full chat log + metadata. The onl…
