Santiago R Santos(@santiagoroel):Do you care how much time went into the task, or that it’s right? Everyone says right. But time spent is how people actually ascribe value, and that’s becoming less true with AI In industrial processes nobody argues you should burn more inputs to prove you care. In discrete complex tasks…TBD Sometimes you do need the time to understand the thing. But craftsmanship isn’t a function of time as much as taste. Time and quality can decouple, and will decouple more with AI Though the premium won’t disappear everywhere. Brands have sold “hand made” for decades and someone will sell “no AI” the same way
