Read the thread and then the paper. Me thinks this is a fundamental insight into our experience of awareness.

.@JamesTalarico: I want to get back to the kind of capitalism we had in the middle of the 20th century in this country. I want competition, but it’s got to be fair competition. We’ve got to take on these monopolies, this consolidation, because again it’s fundamentally anti-capitalist. Right now, our tax system literally taxes work more than it taxes wealth. I’m advocating for a return to original capitalist principles where we actually reward work instead of wealth—an economy that creates fewer trillionaires and more millionaires.

Google Stitch is interesting but let’s be honest about what it is. Spell check didn’t make anyone a better writer. It just made bad writing less frequent. That’s what AI design tools do. They clean up the mess. They don’t create the vision. You can prompt claude code, gemini, or any of them and they will all give you something competent. Not bad. Just not interesting. When everyone has access to “pretty good,” pretty good stops working. It becomes noise. The baseline shifts and very rapidly the only stuff that cuts through the noise is the stuff that has a point of view. That takes an eye and imagination and I promise you no prompt box is ever gonna give you that. In summary, good designers are definitely not cooked.
