The IT market is over

Ten years ago
I saw the iPhone and crossed over into the IT market

I had been running a hole-in-the-wall café
and was just feeling the limits of my own aptitude for it

But lately the IT market looks strange to me
Even as AI is getting this active,
the irony seems to be spreading

The most intuitive place to see it is here:
students who passed the College Scholastic Ability Test through pre-learning and rote-cramming education,
now grown comfortable with that kind of efficient learning,

are now using pre-learning and rote-cramming education along with portfolio cheat-sheets
to get hired

There is no problem-recognition or problem-definition,
only a flood of correct answers and answer-key explanations

Development patterns
and service flows alike
are being homogenized to follow the "correct answer"

Adios, IT
