Are you an engineer? How is your time divided between building (i.e. coding) and deciding what to build (meetings, gathering requirements, understanding the problem, etc.)? First we will automate sooner or later. The latter will be rather more difficult.


Imagine you had 1 group of engineers tasked with 40% meetings, 60% programming tasks.

Now, you split that group 40/60 into 2 groups so that one group is allocated 100% to meetings, and the other group 100% to programming. Now replace the latter group with bots.

That is why I mean.
