When the core of your business ist something that’s shamelessly farmed out to <LLM provider of choice>.
It would be like calling yourself a restaurant, and then getting uber eats deliveries of whatever customers ordered and handing that to them.
- jasonjmcghee 11mo agoI mean- yeah I think that's a fair analogy. The customers don't see where the food is coming from and are still coming to eat. If you can make the economics work... You don't have the moat other restaurants have, but you're still a restaurant.
- zkmon 11mo agoRestaurants are a spectrum too. Some restaurants may not have much of what you call as kitchen. It's not like they make food from raw ingredients. They might just assemble the food. A lot of it could be instant food, pre-made. They might just do wrapping, stuffing and heating it up. Not too different from what uber eats does.
- nottorp 11mo agoGreat analogy. I don't eat at those kinds of "restaurants" though. If I buy pre made it's at best from supermarkets for heating at home.
- zkmon 11mo agoIf restaurants can't use pre-made food, they would have to have a farm in their backyard with all sorts of animals, veggies and grain crops.
- FridgeSeal 11mo agoWhat an incredible false dichotomy. Yes clearly the only 2 options are “sells someone else pre-made meals” or “farms everything on premises”. Clearly no other alternatives exist. /s
