In spite of all of this, Cycorp is still in business, and have pivoted to healthcare automation, including apparently insurance denials. I wonder if the full Cyc knowledg base will ever end up being released to the public domain, or whether it will simply fade away into nonexistence as proprietary data?

There's a lesson here for AI entrepreneurs: If it's hard to make systems that give actually good, actionable advice, you can always pivot to authoritatively telling people what they want to be told instead. It's probably a bigger market anyway. Gordon Way would be proud.

So yes, LLMs are indeed great at "authoritatively telling people what they want to be told", and they're already being used that way!
