Welcome back! Impressive how ChatGPT can make jokes about itself ;)
Great insights as usual. Entropy certainly exists and keeps increasing. Besides the economic challenges, look at Elon shutting down third-party API access for Twitter without any warning. And on the topic of adaptability, it would be interesting to see how companies behind third-party Twitter apps navigate losing their major (or perhaps the only) revenue stream. And to start, I think how they communicate the discontinuation could indicate how adaptable their product folks (and the CEO) are?
The API changes by Twitter make me think of the classic business model canvas; "key resources" is a segment that needs careful attention and upkeep. If a business is single threaded in terms of reliance on another entity, esp programmatic, for their primary means of delivering value, that's a huge risk that needs to be mitigated or at least well understood. In some cases, the change can't be navigated and the business is no longer tenable.
