## AI 摘要

swyx 反驳对 AI Engineer 大会演讲质量的批评，强调社区和行业价值超越个人视角，演讲者多为工程师和创始人，演讲准备时间短且未经专业训练。他承认策展、辅导和制作可改进，但拒绝仅以播放量评判质量，并暂拒将演讲发布到次要频道。

## 正文

comments like this on the aie channel miss the point.

• we are building a community and an industry that is bigger than any one person can hold in their head. your slop is someone's aha moment and vice versa.
• speakers spend quality time coming and presenting their strongest beliefs/entire year's work in 20-180 minutes
• we spend millions on union AV labor and editing to get our speakers a public record that they can then send to customers, employees, and investors
• our speakers are mostly engineers, researchers, academics and founders doing the work; not polished professional talking heads doing the circuit. most talks are prepped <1 week before. most have had ~0 public speaking training.
• if you want the polished ppl, many other conferences select for people whose main job it is to be great speakers who give great talks
• if you only judge quality by view count, you are guaranteed to be cooked by the algorithm. you will only ever hear about things after they are popular; worse; you consider things good only because they are popular. there are entire industries dedicated to manipulating you. do better.

that said:
• we CAN do a better job in curation. that's on me.
• we CAN do a better job in coaching. also on me.
• we CAN do a better job in production. that's on our team.
• we COULD publish some talks to a secondary channel... I'm just concerned for those speakers as that will start form a smaller base, advice welcome, i am constantly pressured to do this every single year and have said no so far
