Key Learnings and Advice on Business and Technology:
Disruption: Agentic Coding has effectively "wiped off the map" the entry level of the career ladder. The guarantee of stability known as the "iron rice bowl" is gone, making employment a highly transactional thing due to companies' "zero loyalty".
Adaptation: Individuals must adopt a continuous learning mindset. Professionals must pivot from the technical "how" to focusing on the business "what and why".
Critical Skills: Success requires AI fluency and mastering human skills: the ability to ask questions, frame problems, and evaluate output. The ideal model is collaboration, maintaining the "human in the loop".
Career Structure: Mid-level professionals must become more generalist, rather than specialized, to broaden their understanding.
