FWIW, from a stoic viewpoint, glue/coordinator roles are getting eviscerated by basic LLMs.

I feel the resentment is stronger if you ignore the game and get lulled into contentment when others are more transactional. It's all about interfaces and continuous contracting. And planning 2+ steps ahead.

Oh I disagree entirely with your first sentence. LLMs continue to be much better at writing lots of code than keeping track of how all the pieces of an organization actually fit together.

I'm pretty sure it's good at both.

>I like being helpful and I like doing this kind of work and I really don't want to think or care about how it is reading to upper management.

Coding aside, I'm afraid this is already falling prey to LLMs plugged into exec calendars and org charts. You're adding yet another non-human, digital layer.

		I'm happy to agree to disagree, but I think this seems like a misunderstanding of the kind of work I'm referring to. It's not clear to me how being plugged into exec calendars and org charts would help, so I think we're probably talking about different things. But that the with is misunderstood and invisible to lots of people is the whole point of the thread! So it's an understandable misunderstanding :)
