I read ‘People who show instead of describe. AI made prototyping cheap. The conversation should start at "try this," not "imagine this."’ in a post about what a hiring manager is lookin for in a product manager … and… We’re going to relearn some lessons the hard way, aren’t we??? What is my problem with that? Ok, it’s hard to guess what’s in my head… So. What problem do you see with that?

@RuthMalan@mastodon.social We’re going to relearn some lessons the hard way, aren’t we??? Yeah, AI is going to do this to a lot of people. For better and for worse. People regularly complain that their bosses literally didn't know what they did. Bosses are going to have to figure that out (and likely discover that they can't replace the humans). Some bosses made a living on the back of tactical ambiguity. And now they're facing a tool that doesn't do that. That needs things written clearly and explicitly. Human businesses operate with a fair amount of BS as lubricant, as signaling. We now have BS machines and they're overwhelming the system. It's going to be summer hard lessons.
