Imagine working for a 100M generic AI unicorn startup, with nothing but a hunch? That's my worst nightmare. Somebody elses dream
But: Big corps need to learn and experiment. Sometimes it's ridiculously expensive. But it needs to be done.
I quit a project (stayed in the company) that is currently running something like 10M euro. I quit when it was 1M. Because I felt my small role was tedious and stupid and not a big learning opportunity. But the job needs to be done. So now less capable people are doing it. And we (they organisation) will kind of maybe succeed. But the fact is: the project is mission critical for the company. So no choice but to do the job. But i can assure you most people working that project hates it. Think their job is bullshit etc. But really. It's just a really really important threadmill.
What i am trying to say: sometimes it's not the job. Sometimes it's you.
