Have been working my way through this author's essays, thought this one was a unique observation.

Great essay, made a few things click into place for me. I've been hearing people complain about the tech industry's abandonment of quality for decades, but never quite mentally connected that to the funding model.

Another thought: a lot of the other phenomena discussed here seem to be happening in virtually every industry, as far as I can tell.

Thanks for sharing!

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
