Average is all you need

If average is all we need, then anyone can do it. What value do I add? How does an employee differentiate themselves?

Why didn’t the boss ask the AI for the charts to begin with?

Everyone’s income is going to be below average, because they got fired.

Not everyone can be average. Half of people will be below average.

I might not agree with the point, but I can see that idea that many things just need to be "good enough" (which we might define as "average") and we save our real expertise for the things that really matter.

A car that starts 50% of the time isn't "average". The average new car starts more or less every time. (And if you said 'modal average', I'd say the modal average new car starts every time).

    This is not only average. This is actual magic.

    So let's be real: the SQL is average. The joins are average. The chart is average. And that took us less than 5 minutes and that was amazing, that is the entire point.

    You did not need a data engineer to model your HubSpot data, or a meeting to agree on whether it should be last-click or first-click or linear or time-decay or whatever.

    You needed a query, written fast, on data you already own. Your LLM wrote it. You confirmed it made sense. Your manager got a link.


    Honestly, average is clearly magic; prove me wrong.

I'll give it a go. This is generated slop, and the poor, factory-made quality of the writing undercuts every aspect of the argument.

It is like nails on a chalkboard.

The majority of devs are average. What a shocker.
