Specialization
Specialization is the worst thing you can do for your career.
Computational thinking is the default mode when we cannot connect to the reason (meaning/value) behind our work.
Machines specialize, but computers are not the only systems that optimize. Before a robot can become autonomous, the people around it must systematize
themselves.
Computational thinking organizes the world in a set of pseudo-objective jigs, an orchestra of good-enoughs, train trucks for ideas, in a way that can never lead or respond to opportunities.
All computational thinking will inevitably be done better by computers. When it will happen depends on the direction you’re going.
If you’re articulating your value as more utility (/production), you will be caught by an algo (automated out of that work) sooner than you wish. If you give yourself space to explore (yourself and the world) while maintaining a posture (/language) of self-value, you will continue the process of becoming (/staying creative and curious about yourself) in harmony (rather than conflict) with technology.
