This article seems to hedge bets on AI --

Remember your roots

and

Generative AI will drive productivity

are opposite sides of the same coin. I think the bigger takeaway there is that complexity is outstripping capacity to handle, so you are either going to need to go back to basics to understand the complexity, or lean into an AI layer of abstraction to make things usable. Both are valid and follow the general build-vs-buy advice, but IMO the thing to do there is to remove that complexity. Use few abstractions, make deeps user of your toolbox, take a user centric view of what you are building.
