Completely horrific especially in the creative context. If you make something, you are a creator, and what you make should be an artifact of you. The idea to A/B test a video, as if you don't know what the best video is you can make, to me completely undermines the point of making anything at all. At that point you may as well outsource your 'content' to a marketing department. You evidently only care about clicks, not expressing anything.
And even in the software world where there's a place to test say accessibility and whatnot this attitude is so prevalent that everything looks the same. Nobody's making a website like Larry Wall any more[1]. Can people please start making things out of their own volition again instead of following this brain dead attention economy
