I think this is, and bare with me, because of the infiltration of radical individualism since the 1960s.
Donald Trump can fake his way to president, anyone can build a SaaS and fake their way to money with a loose collection of APIs. Hustle culture outweighs solid fundamentals and rigor.
Superficial, yet effective. Lacking rigor but marketable. Become a developer in 4 weeks (seen lots of that on YouTube). Go to a boot camp and learn Javascript. Fake it until you don't need to make it. Don't learn about weights and activation, just load it off HuggingFace and make an amazing landing page that ignores accuracy.
It's not a world where SICP fits. This makes me sad.
I don't know... LLMs are just functions from text to text. Seems like the same skillset is still valuable. You just have more amazing functions at your disposal.
