Ironically it used to be the case that best developers who actually were able to accomplish something were gradually promoted to management. HArdcore developers who really loved coding were resisting that but there was a pressure definitely. And it makes sense managers are better managers if they know more about the tasks they are managing.

Now every developer is getting promoted to management because they are expected to manage the AI-agents. But their status in the organization nor pay does not really increase does it when every coder is doing that.

How interchangeable are shepherds?

Not a question that demands answers in this thread, obviously.
