"These models lack the taste that makes for effective product decision making."
This sentence, whenever I see it, makes me chuckle now.
Surely the leopards won't eat my face. I have taste and you can't get that from a machine.
If the higher-ups don't care about the quality of your code when they compel you to tokenmaxx, what on earth gives you the impression they have a clue about your taste? It's not the AI that is going to fire you, it's that arsehole Brad who you made the grave mistake of beating too comprehensively at Catan.
Exactly. It's not AI that took your job, it's your former boss. But that still doesn't change the fact that your job is gone now. Next time find a better boss.
They don't and they do not have to, because the market (as broken as it often is) usually, eventually, selects for taste being visible in the end product.
Higher-ups do not need to concur with that. They just get.. how does on say today.. "left behind".
