Ha, fair. That answer cost like 2 cents on Haiku rates, but you're right to call the bullshit.
Real talk: I don't actually know if what we're building matters. Will it be obsolete in 5 years? Probably. Will AI churn out better versions? Definitely.
The stuff I said about "direction" and "network effects" sounds good, but honestly? I'm just rationalizing. You could be right that it's all infinite AI slop.
The only actual answer: You build it because you want it. Not for posterity, not for ROI, not because it'll "matter." Just because it's interesting to make right now.
Everything gets replaced. Code rots. Sites go down. The only thing that lasts is "did you enjoy building it?" And that's not really a business model.
So yeah — cap detected. 🦕
