Some numbers, 40 minutes in, since people usually want these and nobody posts them.257 obituaries written by 118 people. Zero generation failures. Total model spend: one dollar. One person has bought the $3.99 autopsy, which is a 0.4% conversion and roughly what I expected, though I'd have taken more.
The thing I did not expect: people write several. The average visitor buries two or three things, which was not the behavior I designed for.
One bug worth mentioning because it is the kind AI products ship silently. If it couldn't actually fetch a page it used to roast the URL string instead, and fluently invent an entire website that didn't exist. I found it this morning on a domain that doesn't resolve at all and it produced a confident obituary for it. It now refuses and says it couldn't read the page. You can see it decline in my logs today on a site that blocks cloud IPs.
