The encoded JSON string is going to start with "ey", unless there's whitespace in the first couple characters. Also, it seem like the really important point is kind of glossed over. Base64 is not a kind of encryption, it&#x27

It also seems odd to me. The embeddings are a kind of "Rosetta Stone" that allows a computer to quantify human language. They should be a really big deal! Though I can see why trying to comprehend a 1,000-dimensional vector space

This doesn't seem terribly innovative to me, they've gone from giving away a product to selling a product. In other words, they're operating like a normal business.

I think the market is actually much more segmented than your comment implies. There's publishers who absolutely dominate certain niches, especially sporting games, and the only realistic competition they have are themselves.

The FTC is currently suing John Deere over this kind of thing. Also, Netflix is a weird comparison here. That seems like it should be an online-only service, they're not selling the actual movies to you. It's one of the situations
