Except those are the same people that will decide who is getting hired, and who gets layoff because of increasing productivity.
And no, this isn't playing what ifs.
I have seen it happening with offshoring, migration to cloud, serverless, SaaS and iPaaS products, and now AI powered automations via agents.
Less devops people, less backend devs , no translation team, no asset creation team,...
I have been layoff a few times, having to do competence transfer to offshoring teams, the quality of the output is something c suites don't care all.
Do you wanna bet what is behind Microslop, Apple Tahoe bugs and so forth?
