AI might produce polished garbage, but everyone produces garbage at first. People who only ever turn out excellent work from day one never actually grow.

The French philosopher Alain wrote that "a very dexterous man is nothing but a fool." And honestly, I sometimes catch myself shipping polished garbage with AI too. But you can't pan gold without sifting through a lot of plain sand.

Only those who fail more end up succeeding — the classic American startup spirit. AI lets us fail faster and more often, which also means more chances at success, faster. At least, that's how I see it.
