Are there ANY institutions remaining that haven't completely succumbed to the Church of Quantity? It was already bad before AI, on the web especially, and now that it's widely used it feels like no one cares about anything anymore. Ask any developer and they would gladly offer you 100x the code shipped 10x faster, but recoil at the idea of making it even 1.5x better or more performant. Everyone has accepted that quality doesn't matter because... you can remake the same flawed thing ten times in an hour? Code is discarded just as quickly as it was spawned into existence, never having been worth anything to anyone. But at least some very influential people get to take the speed they firehosed this code at and brag about it. Not what they made, not its quality, but about a metric that only builds street cred among a million people doing the same thing and not really going anywhere. I knew that the elite of the tech world never really cared, they were just forced to. They don't care about what they make as long as some numbers and statements look good so they get more money at any cost. What's shocking is that everyone else agrees with them - that in all contexts, quality is dead and less than worthless. Just stop caring bro.
