Good Taste Can't Be Taught, Bought or Learned, Sorry AI

> AI will never understand why you can’t wear Nike socks with adidas shoes. This sounds like something I will never understand either. Sometimes I wonder if good taste is actually a real thing, or is instead a manufactured perception created by marketing teams...

A lot more people have taste than have previously been able to materialize it. With AI, I created printable artifacts for a booth of a nonprofit I advise. We don't have a "creative" on the team but I'm fluent with all of Claude's tools and I feel I have good taste. I am not what you'd typically call a "creative" though - because I lacked certain skills that are less important now. In about 30 minutes, I had a PDF I could upload to FedEx Kinkos to print. It looked very professional. Partly because it was based off the website that Claude also helped me design. In the same way that AI enables me to bypass creatives, it lets creatives by bypass someone like me.

Not that I wouldn't find AI output kitsch often, but it's been really quite eye opening to see the outright hordes of shameless narcissists crawl out of the woodworks, and really abuse the snot out of the fact that the models are not people, and that therefore, their otherwise hilariously obnoxious snobbery is now suddenly socially acceptable, if not even encouraged.
