For different reasons in the last 2 weeks I've found myself speaking to CTOs / CPOs that believe "Taste" is the main distinction and value a human bring to the process in a LLM/Generative AI world. I'm simply not getting it, and I don't know what I'm missing.
- Self-driving as an example: I don't really care if it's "nice" how it drives, as long as it drives better or equal to a human. So no taste applies there?
Don't get me wrong, I understand (and share) that we use a concept of "taste" to actually mean "there is no enough data for the model to give a right answer", and the "judgement we introduce after years of living may be better". But I don't buy into this idea that exercising that decision (our free will if we may), is the actual difference.
So, is taste another way of saying you still know better than Kimi? Or am I truly, and likely, missing something bigger than that?
PS: Apologies for simplifying the concept too much, but it's just to make the point across.
