And where I live you can sometimes still see a horse-drawn cart on the roads. Albeit rarely - they are forbidden. 10 or 20 years ago it was more common. I rode one once a bunch of years ago, went with its owner to harvest construction materials from a collapsed building.
Plus, on the way here today, I passed over a favela-type assemblage I can only describe as festering. No offense meant to its inhabitants - they are more real human beings than any of us.
Point being, the future has been here for long enough. And, as the adage goes, it's not evenly distributed.

Now that the psychopaths in charge have cognitive prosthetics, I expect to be culled.
Right, but until now, and even today, in most people's early and primitive use of AI, it's been relatively difficult to make that change. To the extent that later this year and next year, people are able to point an agent at a WordPress instance, and iterate with it until it has a parity version of their surface in a custom form, things might start to change.
To be clear, I'm not one of the people who believes that software is going away or that UX is going away. I think those are both still very important. But I do think that a lot of legacy software can be replaced, and then we'll end up with a new level of software in the longer term.

(That whole series is also available as PDF; I recommend printing it, spiral-binding the printout kinda like a pirated college textbook, and surreptitiously leaving it in cafes and the like.)
The argument TFA makes is rather facile nonetheless.
Like this stuff is intuitively known to any Ukrainian 3rd grader but not to Western business leaders?
No wonder yall got an AI problem...
