glad i switched from IT to post office 15 years ago. still rocking the infosec.
the writing has been an the wall for a while.
What do we do about it?
Refuse to use LLMs; don't use / train your replacement. Change careers, pivot to something you can't be replaced by LLMs. Could still be programming in an industry that doesn't use them for privacy or security reasons.
Let’s say I’m a middle manager. Do I need to worry?
Probably fine. But I would be suspicious of any usage of the tool that removes too much of your job. Let's say for example you can send an A.I. to attend meetings in your place, or an A.I. that automatically does performance reviews and check ins with subordinates. That would be a risky thing to do haha
I think that's still a bit in the future yet, though. Just keep it in the back of your mind if you notice the tool "helping too much"
