Whilst some of the points about where personal satisfaction arise from deep work are well explained, I think this article doesn’t contextualise this in the wider capitalistic tendency toward cheaper, faster, quicker with a disregard for quality.

So it really requires us to reframe that aspect of quality in a wider context which is about understanding or reframing our value set, now that other things have been automated.

I’m optimistic, but I think THAT’s the real question that needs answering to prevent a race to the bottom.

This does feel like an important challenge. I’m curious what you imagine reframing/understanding our “value set” might look like. I think one way to define that is “the market,” which already naturally changes and responds to things like degradation of quality.
