🎯 Spot on take from Bravo here.
Adjacent to this issue is the deficit of critical thinking skills to challenge the slop we’re presented with on a daily basis. Better execution won’t fix that either. The next wave of companies leading with trust is a step in the right direction, but proven trust takes time and the funding for long term ventures that allow for it are sadly few and far between.

The deeper issue: LLMs were conceived in the ZIRP era, designed for an economy of cheap capital and captive audiences – conditions now gone, especially in media. Companies spent that easy money flooding us with algorithmic slop, mistaking cheap capital for a license to brute-force culture. Now capital is expensive and audiences have left.

Better execution won't fix this. The core problem was architected assuming infinite runway and tolerant audiences. The entire system is fundamentally flawed for today's reality. The irony is perfect: execs are not being replaced because AI is superior, but because the conditions that sustained them—ZIRP economics and a docile audience—have collapsed. AI isn’t the threat. The end of cheap capital is. And AI can’t fix that. The real problem isn’t cost—it’s quality and retention.

I keep forgetting there's a bug where if you save a draft of a quote cast it will delete the cast you are quoting.
@bravojohnson I'm still thinking about what you said. Keep dropping those deep thoughts on the timeline

Hopefully you're reading his blog too? He's a prolific writer. 

Pains me that so many copycat thinkbois receive public adulation while brilliant critical thinking like this remains obscure.

Here's one of my favorites so far.

Looks like your quote from Bravo didn't carry over, but I read the cast you're talking about, and I agree it's spot on. :)
