A/B testing can get you stuck in fractal niches upon niches.

· Bits and Bobs 1/6/25
  • A/B testing can get you stuck in fractal niches upon niches.
    • That is, weird local maxima within local maxima.
    • When you look up you are like "wait where are we? This obviously doesn't make sense."
    • A/B testing doesn't have a vision, it's just the path of least resistance.
    • If you follow the path of least resistance many many times, you end up in incoherent places, lost from any semblance of something bigger.
    • Just the "most".
    • The most what?
    • Whatever catchment basin you happened to start in.
