Why obvious? Computers have been augmenting human skills without replacing them for a generation. Did copilot make all your coding skills obsolete or did it multiply your efforts? Does DevOps automation remove the need to DevOps skills or allow you to do more?
Remember that story of the doctor who leaned on chat gpt to communicate calmly and effectively with his patient’s family so they stopped interrupting with backseat care advice? Did the language automation replace him or improve his efficiency and communications effectiveness?
We’ll probably see another generation of computer augmented human effort before AI people start operating autonomously. If you care to prepare for a big transition focus on that one, but it will be a social transition not necessarily a technical one.
