Prolifics and frugals

Prolifics and frugals

The world splits into prolifics and frugals.

Prolifics create a lot.
They attempt many things.
They don’t refine much, they multiply instead.

Frugals prefer to distill.
They care about signal over noise.
They care about simplicity,
About differences that make a difference.

AI is the prolific genie.
It’s verbose.
It produces fast.
It assumes a lot.

Prolifics are best positioned to leverage AI
It fits their nature.
It amplifies their natural inclination.
But can they not drown in their own output (slop?)

Frugals may actually benefit the most
If they can add volume to their production.
If they can automate distillation.
If they can get started and deal with the initial mess.
At least for a moment.
Long enough to figure out how to work with their new prolific partner.
