The new scarcity is taste.

Now that anyone can make anything, only the intentional will truly stand out - those who create with care, not just speed.
We’ve gone from a world of restricted access (tools, capital, gatekeepers) to one where anyone can create with ease. The barrier is no longer execution, but discernment. The true differentiator isn’t how much you make, but how well you filter, frame, and refine.
Tools are everywhere, but good taste remains rare. Taste, rooted in experience, observation, and intuition, isn’t easily copied or scaled. It’s the ability to strip away the excess, highlight what matters, and shape resonance behind every great work.
Intentionality, taking time to care about context, composition, and consequence, is the new craftsmanship. Those who lead with taste rise above the noise, because they don’t just add... They elevate.

👀 pretty sure this was AI generated (so we aren't there yet, are we?)
I also think that while taste might be the last information-based thing to be automated, it will still be automated. Which is why I don't think people with taste should give up on craft if they enjoy it. No one will escape The Great Replacement so we should learn to enjoy ourselves. It's almost as if that's what we were supposed to be doing all along.

Yeah I had a chat with chat gpt about it and it helped me craft a short post.
Not saying that AI equals no taste. Not saying we shouldn't use AI to help us create. I am saying we could be more discerning of what we create and what message put out into the world.
Otherwise we're just mindlessly adding to the noise and not fully exploring the journey of our own internal self expression.

This is true. True taste comes from years of experience and discovery. To each their own.

Taste as a trait is more innate😄
