There's some irony; far from handling the details, LLMs are forcing programmers to adopt hyper-detailed, disciplined practices. They've finally cajoled software developers into writing documentation! Worth noting we've always had the capacity to implement these practices to improve HUMAN collaboration, but rarely bothered.

What i keep seeing missing for AI-labor replacement discussions is that technology may seem to replace human labor, but it doesn't really replace human accountability.

Organizations many times seem capable to diffuse blame for mistakes within their human beaurocracy but as beaurocracy is reduced with AI, individuals become more exposed.

This alone - in my view - is sufficient counterpressure to fully replace humans in organizations.

Shorter reply: if my AI setup fails I'm the one to blame. If I do a bad job at helping coworkers perform better is the blame fully mine?
