"We believe the best research teams are built through context, taste and a real feel for where the field is headed next. Recruiting may be an especially good fit for candidates with taste, because their responsibilities at OpenAI include finding people who will move the frontier forward, not just filling roles."
"In the AI age, taste will become even more important. When anyone can make anything, the big differentiator is what you choose to make."
"Taste is a new core skill."
As AI adoption accelerates and executives use the technology to reduce headcount, prominent tech leaders including Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Paul Graham are positioning "taste"—the capacity for human judgment and aesthetic discernment—as an essential skill for job security. Altman suggests non-technical candidates can contribute to AI development through research recruiting by leveraging human judgment to identify talent that advances the field. Brockman calls taste a core skill, while Graham argues that in an AI age where anyone can create anything, the differentiator becomes what people choose to make. These executives frame taste as an irreplicable human capability that will distinguish workers in an increasingly automated landscape.
