It all makes sense once you consider a tech company to be a money printer.

Once the initial builders have built it, it will keep on printing money barring some absolute mismanagement. This attracts the grifters, the useless people, the talkers, you know the type. These people don’t care about building. They don’t care about the product. They care about their own self-interests and the money printer is a way to advance those interests.

The inevitable end result? Enshittification.

The only way to avoid this is to have an actual engineer as CEO. See Meta, Tesla, Nvidia
