Remember when Cloudflare built that web3 gateway? This product actually makes more sense, but it strikes me as a bearish signal for LLMs as a potential platform. Either this product is opportunistic FUD by Cloudflare to just grab a slice of the short-lived VC cash cannon being pointed at anything “AI”, or this is actually a useful and necessary security mechanism. Either way, combine that with the underlying nightmare economics of any LLM-based logic layer and this isn’t a positive sign for “AI” as a driver for mid term success.
- freedomben 3y agoI'm not sure I understand why this is bad either way. If I am a company that wants to offer a chatbot on their website, but prefers to spend my time and money to train or provide context to the model so that it works the best for the applications I intended rather than spend my time hardening it from the latest prompt injection attack, then this is a product that appeals to me highly! This seems like a great product from cloudflare. In fact, there's a good chance that I'll be using this product 3 months from now.
