If we believe the AI-influenced system will be faster, more prolific and more experimental (cheaper experiments), then it seems human attention and the rate at which humans can change (individually, processes, tools, teams, etc) becomes the bottleneck.
In that system, the designer and PM functions become more important in addressing that bottleneck - in producing solutions to best overcome those bottlenecks?
- pixl97 8mo agoAre we assuming the systems the AI is building are systems for humans? Continuous learning systems aren't there yet, though we have the proto-learning systems with things like agents and skills. What does it look like when we have AI systems building systems for other AI systems?
- gz5 8mo agogood point although built for humans > built for AIs is likely true for a while
- AlienRobot 8mo agoIs that quote really true? I've always understood "bottleneck" as the slowest part of a system, so a system without a bottleneck simply has all parts being equally fast, it isn't necessarily infinitely fast.
- gz5 8mo agothe quoted text above is from the OP's article - your point is interesting though
