I understand why you cut it. There is a lot that you could dig into there, and you would really have to go into detail it you wanna convince the suits that can only think in terms of KPIs.

The forcing function is a good way of looking at it. We’re not really doing the same thing but faster. We’re doing less, and that naturally takes less time. AI made understanding optional.

I kinda wonder to what extent coding is actually a domain that AI is uniquely “good at” vs simply how well coding activities are able to survive on artifacts which are produced but not understood.

It seems like something we were already exceptionally capable of tolerating, compared to other sectors.
