Actually, project managers could learn a lot from computer science. For example, on scheduling - kanban is the way to go (that's what OS is doing), scrum is BS. Or on planning - planning has a cost which decreases the total throughput.

There is also a variation of Amdahl's law - if you automate more things, the predictability of remaining work will decrease, because it will now take more time.

Also, formal languages still trump natural language. Despite LLMs; I think it's a stepping stone to something better but "vibe coding" will turn out to be unsustainable.
