You can automate work but never owning the consequences. AI tasks emerge from human contexts, they perform work in the context and finally the outcomes collect in the context - gains, losses, risks, costs. So AI is great but it needs our skin for the start, middle and end of a task.

It's not as if management owns any consequences. At best they adapt, but so can AI. Management tasks are not like engineering tasks.

As stated in the sibling comment, management is very similar to engineering.

Of course management would like to make that claim, but I don't see it substantiated. In what way is management "owning the consequences" -- are they losing their equity or risking an unpaid suspension?
