      Something like 9 million IT jobs in the US alone, and AI isnt going to replace them no matter how much execs hope.

      Nothing is streamlined enough for a bot to do the job. Everything in IT is so jank that only a human could hope to make sense of it, and the jank is unique at each buisness. Even the “low code/no code” tools that are being pitched create wild problems with data governance/logging/monitoring/redundacy/backups/etc. The “answer” to IT complexity increases the IT complexity.

      Maybe AI can help streamline things going forward for new, greenfield companies, but millions upon millions will still need humans to fix their horrors.

      If anything, AI will create more IT jobs, not less.
