The tools will answer anything.
Fast, fluent, tireless.
Which quietly moves the value
somewhere else.
When answers are cheap,
the scarce thing
is knowing what to ask —
framing the problem
so the answer is worth having.
A sharp question
aimed at the wrong problem
just gets you to the wrong place faster.
The machine will optimize
whatever you point it at.
Pointing is the job now.
That skill doesn't come from the tool.
It comes from understanding the domain,
the people, the stakes —
the messy context
no model can see from where it sits.
Learn to frame.
Learn what actually matters
before you automate the answering of it.
The answer is a commodity.
The question is the craft.
– Serguey Asael Shinder
