Yeah, the younguns smell opportunity and run towards it. They'll be fine. It's younguns) the less experienced folks in the current corporate world that will have the most to lose.

Or perhaps it will be the more experienced knuckle draggers, hardened in our ways.

The really experienced of us will have made this mistake enough times to know to avoid it.

I didn’t get a smart phone until the 2010s. Stupid I know but it was seen as a badge of honour in some circles ‘bah I don’t even use a smart phone’ we’d say as the young crowd went about their lives never getting lost without a map and generally having an easier time of it since they didn’t have that mental block.

Ai is going to be similar no doubt. I’m already seeing ‘bah I don’t use ai coding assistants’ type of posts, wearing it as a badge of honour. ‘Ok you’re making things harder for yourself’ should be the reply but we’ll no doubt have people wearing it as a badge of honour for some time yet.
