just saw a post arguing that being a specialist is becoming a dead end bc ai handles the execution gap. since figma and other automation tools can now bridge the distance btwn concept and high-fidelity, we are moving toward a world of the polymath architect. it feels like deep expertise in one niche isn't enough to stay relevant when one person can handle an entire product lifecycle. the era of the narrow specialist is over . we need to focus on cross-disciplinary strategy rather than just mastering a single craft. do you think it is still possible to build a career around user centricity w/o knowing how to code or manage product logic?

the issue isn't the loss of execution, it's the loss of taste and decision-making logic . automation can generate a thousand high-fidelity screens but it can't tell u which one actually solves the user's cognitive load problem. if u stop honing ur craft, you lose the ability to audit what the ai is actually outputting.
>the gap between concept and hi-fi is shrinking

that part is true, but that just means the "specialist" role shifts from pixel pusher to system auditor . i've started using icloud sync to keep my design system documentation side-by-side with my prototyping workflow so i can catch logic errors early. if you don't have deep knowledge of constraints, you'll just end up designing beautiful interfaces that are impossible for engineers to actually build . do you think there is a limit to how much "strategy" one person can actually oversee before the quality of the execution inevitably drops?. fr.

the real value is shifting to complex system design and edge case logic that automation can't reason thru yet
