When you're in the field for twenty years this kind of statement doesn't get you. I've heard so many things that just didn't hold up at the time and still doesn't, but some CEOs and managers love to threaten peoples jobs and simplifying things for the sake of publicity. Examples:

  • Agile would make everyone deliver better software faster with less people
  • Cloud would eliminate the need for ops teams
  • Low Code will make everyone develop any software

Now we're here with this new bold statement that's generating free publicity.

Totally. Good luck making sure the program does what they wanted it to do!
