The whole "Taste makes all the difference" has been meme'd to death too: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DYuj_4dxVg2/ https://www.instagram.com/reel/DYuj_4dxVg2/. Also... I won't add any details to avoid doxing myself, but trust me on this, Rick is the last person nowadays you'd want to listen to for anything taste-related, unless we're talking about feeding your own ego and carefully curating your own public image, and disappearing for weeks. I'd pay very good money to be around his ghost producers/writers/engineers again, though.

Money is exactly what got us to this point! Besides, I always thought taste, or at least 'popular' taste, was a market function, or something? That's what people like Rick Rubin (Iovine, the Medici's, etc), deep down, need us to believe. Probably.

  Large quantities of palm oil and fewer orangutans.

There’s enough (massive) market share in automating things that don’t require taste

havent heard taste being a defining factor in building farming robots that can replace labor. "doing shit fast and good enough" seems to be a much better fitness function here
