But these types of businesses don’t really create value as much as seek rent.

it would be cool to use embeddings to categorize into like 10-20 categories and get a giant pie chart

Not a bad idea. I'd look at creating a separate page for embeddings. Crypto and NFT's would be the next best candidates to add. Something for me to work on over time.
