@fraying I mean listen, so many companies already “do UX” without users that this feels like it’s just a big grift (it is)

@fraying is it as simple as figuring out how to make a tech work, then (typically: others) figuring out how to make a business with it ?

Like: early autos solving tractor then transport problems versus 50s onward auto industry chasing market share

Growing The Business through
little innovations around mechanism(s) that solved big old problem(s)

@fraying The quest to un-human everything just never seems to end

@fraying i predict that tech projects will reach a plateau of current tech used to train AIs. The "AI" generated code will feed back into its own training, producing nothing more than redundancy, without any progress. The same problem can happen with every tool using an machine trained generator.

@fraying alternate title: how to make tech nerds hate tech. This reminds me, I remember, maybe 29 years ago, some idiot on a tech podcast insisting that in the future, we'd all scoop out our brains and plop a computer in its place.
