@jneen Land grabs like DevOps, Agile (who needs project managers?? We’re Very Special Boys!) and insisting the entire discipline of Web Design could be replaced with dev tooling and frameworks didn’t win us any fans in other orgs, and rightly so. Still, “AI” is an entirely new level of “complicit in its own destruction” from an industry that now seems staffed entirely by remainders who are eager to help.

@crowbriarhexe as a former ops person myself, i could be wrong but my perception of those "land grabs" is as something pushed almost exclusively by management, who was sick of hiring more than one kind of worker who couldn't be replaced with another. pretty easy to pull off in an industry where people were hopping to new roles every 2-3 years.
