Day 33: Accountability can’t be replicated by machines. Not yet. If software can be prompted into existence in a fraction of the time, what value are you providing? I’ve been thinking about this lately. Most employers want their hires to take responsibility, taking a task from the idea to prod while being held accountable for outcomes. Finding engineers who did this used to be a cherry on top for employers, but if you’re an engineer now and you’re not taking responsibility or driving a project from start to finish, the value you think you’re providing through your git commits is probably smaller than you assume.
