So why are we still trying to optimize code creation?
For decades, people with power - executives and product people - have been shifting the blame for strategy failures and poor market insight onto development "productivity."
This AI moment should be incredibly clarifying. Like, it should be the reductio ad absurdum of a productivity-centric approach.

The fact that we are *not* seeing wildly improving software all around us tells us everything we need to know. There is no flourishing of value delivery, new product categories, more needs being satisfied better. It’s the opposite. All we are seeing is decreases in quality, because 👏 code 👏 creation 👏 is not 👏 the problem.
