#BigTech#Innovation#Disruption: "When we speak of commercial disruption today, we usually mean a tech company disrupting a non-tech company. Tinder disrupts singles bars. Netflix disrupts Blockbuster. Airbnb disrupts Marriott.
But the history of "disruption" features far more examples of tech companies disrupting other tech companies: DEC disrupts IBM. Netscape disrupts Microsoft. Google disrupts Yahoo. Nokia disrupts Kodak, sure – but then Apple disrupts Nokia. It's only natural that the businesses most vulnerable to digital disruption are other digital businesses.
And yet…disruption is nowhere to be seen when it comes to the tech sector itself. Five giant companies have been running the show for more than a decade. A couple of these companies (Apple, Microsoft) are Gen-Xers, having been born in the 70s, then there's a couple of Millennials (Amazon, Google), and that one Gen-Z kid (Facebook). Big Tech shows no sign of being disrupted, despite the continuous enshittification of their core products and services. How can this be? Has Big Tech disrupted disruption itself?" https://pluralistic.net/2024/02/08/permanent-overlords/#republicans-want-to-defund-the-police

Das blinde Vertrauen in KI als Innovationstreiber frustriert mich zunehmend. Innovationen ermöglichen es uns, Aufgaben besser oder kostengünstiger zu erledigen. Idealerweise beides, aber in den meisten Fällen müssen wir eine Abwägung machen. Rechtfertigen 50% geringere Kosten einen kleinen Qualitätsverlust? Sind 10% höhere Kosten für eine neue Funktion akzeptabel?
