Google's Dynamic Web Paige co-signed the take that refusing AI today is like refusing IDEs twenty years ago.
- For mid/late-career engineers and managers, the mandate shifted long ago: decades of system design, failure handling, and architectural taste still matter
- But leaders who don't model curiosity, push teams to build with AI, and openly share what they learn are doing colleagues "a massive disservice"
