> "This also spills over into just basic big corp office politics. Technical work is very well suited to be increasingly eaten up by AI because of it’s D&D (definable and deterministic) property. So as more technical work is outsourced to the AIs, the value of someone who can manage the AIs to work faster, be more productive and present polished results to shareholders increases. In large organizations, the production process is often invisible to shareholders and upper management. They don’t see how the work was done, just what was delivered. So as AI makes execution cheaper and more commoditized, the perceived value of presentation, packaging, and strategic delivery rises. People who can align AI output with business goals, communicate clearly, and drive visible outcomes will increasingly hold power and not necessarily those doing the raw technical implementation. I understand that this may already be the case, but the scales will tip more in the manager’s favour."
