Description

We explore the tension between the speed of AI-driven creation and the rising organizational cost of poor taste, asking whether our pursuit of efficiency is actually degrading the richness of the web. Aurélie Radom argues that taste is now the scarce resource filtering weak options, while Wira Indra Kusuma warns that better search metrics often mean a worse web for creators. In the Thread, we see this friction play out as designers struggle with the chaos of scaling teams and the frustration of AI tools that ignore foundational design principles.
