The oldest architecture in computing

When I talk to customers about AI, there's one question that always seems to come up: "Will AI take my job?" My answer, "Maybe." It's an honest response that often catches people off-guard, but the answer is grounded in every technology shift since the Industrial Revolution. Some work will be automated, some job families will disappear, some industries will consolidate, some of the skills we have today will be commodities tomorrow.

If I reframe the question to "Will AI make me obsolete?", my answer is, "No. Not if you evolve." While we're seeing incredible results from AI, it's still just a tool. And as we’ve seen throughout history, staying relevant is tied to our ability to adapt, to use the tools at our disposal to build better and faster, and to solve harder problems.
