Product Managers aren't safe either (lucaskostka.com) 13 points by greatNespresso45 minutes ago | hide | past | favorite | 5 comments help natty8 minutes ago | next[–] IMO if developers are “cooked” like you stated (would be nice to have more data tho) then certainly plenty of other white collar jobs are in even worse position. They are in a bit better position than many other corporate jobs when it comes to transfer of skills and learning new profession. reply tetrisgm6 minutes ago | prev | next[–] The Product Manager profession has been made completely redundant in AI powered org. Everybody can look at numbers, plan features, and push for them. All the AI redundancies are focused on eliminating middle management. There is absolutely no place for PM. I say this as someone who has been in PM leadership and built product orgs several times over the last 20 years. reply georgemcbay0 minutes ago | prev | next[–] IMO anyone who feels safe from what is going to happen (already happening, really) in the labor market over the next decade is ignorant or is heavily in denial. I'm not saying we're surely all doomed here, but there are going to be a lot of changes that none of us can imagine, and at a surprising speed, and there are a vast number of cascading impacts that people aren't thinking about. eg. if you're in the trades, yes you're safer than a knowledge worker for now, but if all the knowledge workers get wiped out you're both going to have vastly decreased demand for your work (far less individuals will have the disposable income to hire you, companies will have less need for facilities to house employees, so you'll also see a retrenchment on the corporate side) and you'll start getting a labor supply glut as the knowledge workers all attempt to retrain for the 'safe' jobs. And this is just the short term problem, without getting into the robotics threat. reply jbv990117 minutes ago | prev[–] This seems like a very doomer take. Hard to take this assessment seriously with absolutely no data or numbers to back this up. Especially since devs certainly don’t seem like they are going to be “cooked”. reply gopher200013 minutes ago | parent[–] Yes this looks like someone's train of thought feelings about the topic.
