There's no sense in answering your questions when you actively refuse to read the article. You're more susceptible to misunderstand the arguments given your apparent bias on AI-motivated downsizing, which I must reiterate is not covered in the article at all. | ||||||||

Alright you badgered me into reading the original and the linked post does not misinterpret it. > Previously, we could @cursor and ask it to modify the code and content, but now we introduced a new CMS abstraction in between. Everything became a bit more clunky. We went back to clicking through UI menus versus asking agents to do things for us. > With AI and coding agents, the cost of an abstraction has never been higher. I asked them: do we really need a CMS? Will people care if they have to use a chatbot to modify content versus a GUI? > For many teams, the cost of the CMS abstraction is worth it. They need to have a portal where writers or marketers can log in, click a few buttons, and change the content. > More importantly, the migration has already been worth it. The first day after, I merged a fix to the website from a cloud agent on my phone. > The cost of abstractions with AI is very high. The whole argument is about how it's easier to use agents to modify the website without a CMS in the way. This is an AI company saying "if you buy our product you don't need a CMS" and a CMS company saying "nuh-uh, you still need a CMS". The most interesting thing here is that the CMS company feels the need to respond to the AI company's argument publicly. | ||||||||
