I'm already the first one 😎

I'm having a hard time seeing the dilemma here. Is the difference between 1% and 5% meant to be significant?

@singer I thought it would be, but based on responses till now, maybe I should have chosen 0.1% and 5% - will probably create a follow-up question

@Soli It's also not clear what "taste" is useful for, if anything. I personally do believe in "good taste in literature" in the sense that I think some people have better taste in literature than I do, but still, I'd never exchange any amount of skill in engineering (or writing) for more taste in literature.

@singer i feel that in some ways AI is empowering people who have a good taste but lack the technical skill - i wonder if we reach a point where taste is all that matters - a fashion designer would not have to comeup with the designs themselves as long as they can identify good designs and so on

@singer also there are some domains where i imagine having good taste is more valuable than being top 5% - for example someone who is able to identify top 0.1% of spccer players at a young age is more valuable than someone who is merely top 10% in football
