How do you see your job evolving in the future?
I’ve been in software development for many years, witnessing firsthand the necessity for solutions architects to continuously learn and adapt to evolving architectural design patterns, techniques, and methodologies.
Despite concerns about AI potentially replacing our roles, particularly amplified by ChatGPT, I believe this won’t happen, at least not within the next three decades. Solution architects have a promising future. As technologies progress, so must our approaches to solution architecture. AI tools will help solution architects be more pragmatic in problem-solving, sharpening design thinking and improving operational efficiency.
