First party makes no difference, an API can be created for any website or desktop application and served over a network to anyone. It just takes more effort.

These AI companies aren’t state enterprises. How is geopolitics a justification?
If it were just the military training them, probably no one would care about the copyright infringement angle, it makes sense that the government could ignore those rules for national security.
But Mark Zuckerberg isn’t training his models to protect us from China. He’s doing it to make himself even more ridiculously wealthy.
It's been a decade since I was in college but I used to send applications to every vaguely interesting internship, expecting less than 20% of them to contact me.
My university required an internship for graduation so you had to cast a wide net unless you wanted to wait to graduate.
Given how high-profile is and the number of students in the US, 1000 doesn't seem all that impressive.
idk, when I was applying for college a lot of people in the class applied to like 10 schools. There was always space in the education system for them (although maybe not at all of those colleges).
Kids these days are probably just more efficient and can 100x that!
Teen here, I think that I have also applied on the same ~10 colleges level rather than 1000x but I do feel like I have looked for many colleges and I tried to find some international colleges but I am not quite sure about them too. I even made an HN post about it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48097377
Anyways I would love to hear your suggestion.
That being said, I feel like an number of colleges apply to rate might still be lower (people might look at many many colleges though) but still not increased 100x
but I can't say the same about internship numbers and I feel like those numbers might have been very different.
I live in India and the Indian education system works a bit differently than American one which I think that I have hopefully fairly detailed it in the HN post.
Anyways, I would love if you would have some advice for which colleges I should apply to if you might have any as I would love to hear it!
I work at a university and we still have some workstations that need IE as well, for a healthcare vendor app that needs ActiveX. Up until recently we even had some machines running Windows 7.
