It is from my observation that more and more companies, even FAANG, not only encourage fast iteration with LLM tools, but discourage true study and thinking through. The later is inevitably slow, which is not favourable for today’s fast iteration world. This makes me think that it is so important to get into the right team, otherwise one runs the risk of not properly thinking and experimenting again.
So how do we find or make the right teams?
The incentive and loss function are pointing to short term attention and long term amnesia. We are fighting the algorithms.
I think low level programming or anything critical is still relatively safe. That’s where I wish I could be, but still very far away from.
