When I started working in the 80s in my first job, the head of department had banned the PC for administrative tasks. He thought that the old manual process was more reliable and allowed him to better control what was going on. He retired one year later and the PC were introduced successfully shortly after. Was he wrong to push back ? At that time, that was what I thought. But now, 40 years later, I don’t think so anymore. I think that that delay gave the proponents of the PC the time to prepare themselves a lot better and is a reason for the success.

I can’t help drawing a parallel with what is going on now. Even though I’m pro AI, I understand why QGIS is stepping back. There are a lot of places where the processes and tools are not ready yet to fully embrace it and you need time to prepare.
