Reading this in Jan 2025, this post has been incredibly clairvoyant.
I'm currently working a contract at a Fortune 50 company and have used an AI tool (Glean) to comb the entirety of their institutional knowledge (O365, Slack, Miro, Confluence + Jira, etc) and within 2 weeks have built the amount of context that would have taken me 2-3 months of conversations with dozens of people.
One thing remains true - we live in an information economy. Knowing what direction to point AI, what questions to ask, is still vital. Long-live the prompt jockeys!
