I think the last bastion will be people prepared to take responsibility for a system and keep it running. And cast a critical eye to streamline and simplify. I use LLMs and they have a tendency to double down on complexity, rather than zoom out and ask “Why”.

Wherever there is a chain of command, the buck will always stop with a human. “Claude did it and I’m waiting for it to fix it, but it’s not getting anywhere” - this will not fly when there’s a severity 1 outage on something critical.
