@mayintoronto@beige.party @Amgine@mamot.fr Various tell-all books over the last few years tell gruesome stories. I’ve been saying for a few years now that UX has a lot to answer for. (I got out soft in 2016 with my own design/dev shop. And I got out hard in 2023 and am now Executive Director at a Registered Charity. So I’m biased!) And AI will now destroy Pink’s 2nd and 3rd factors. At enormous cost. No more reason to stick around without these intrinsic motivators.

    @uxMark@cosocial.ca On the point of mastery, while there is some level of mastery required to manage the bullshit machine, I like to compare it to being the Jira admin. I have no interest in being an expert on Jira. It's peripheral to my work. It's the thing that I have to do right now for this job. Ugh. The difference is that there will probably be a large number of orgs still using Jira 5 years from now, and all the AI companies as we know them are likely going to die by then. @Amgine@mamot.fr
