Isn't this just an extension of the culture of asking for evidence to make future decisions? If I go to the bank and ask for a loan they will ask me for evidence of product market fit and other signals that suggest to them that I will be able to pay them back. All of this evidence is ultimately based on what has been successful and dominant and quantifiable in the past. IMO LLMs are just the next disturbing step of optimising for the status quo, limiting risk taking, and stifling innovation.
