Later, in response to a question about its business optimization plans, Sweet said, „Our number-one strategy is upskilling, given the skills we need, and we’ve had a lot of experience in upskilling, we’re trying to, in a very compressed timeline, where we don’t have a viable path for skilling, sort of exiting people so we can get more of the skills in we need.“
Overall, she said Accenture was increasing hiring globally for those with the requisite skill set. She claimed Accenture has a host of 77,000 trained AI professionals now on staff, up from 40,000 in 2023, along with 550,000 workers who have a basic knowledge of the technology.
I did a contract with Accenture absolutely terrible company. This is an excuse
“But if they are in roles that can’t be augmented by AI and can’t learn new skills, then the exit door is open for them.”
What? Doesn’t a role that cannot be augmented with AI mean a human must do it?
I like AI, but I think there is still going to be a need for those engineers who understand the code deeply to solve those hard problems. Companies have not released this yet but AI takes context away from engineers.
This is fine in some cases… they get some context but won’t understand the problem as deeply as someone who had done it the harder slower way.
Those guys are gonna be needed when systems need to be fixed and maintained. Cus AI does weird stuff and even if its 10x smarter it will still do weird stuff that is even harder to figure out. I don’t want to be one of those guys myself but I can recognize their value.
They are literally throwing out valuable people – the people who want to do code without AI.
I’m sure there’s more details here I don’t know about, but I think in general if an employee can’t keep up with any new technology, it’s likely to be a problem. For example someone in previous decades who couldn’t or wouldn’t adapt to use a computer wouldn’t last too long. People have strong opinions on how and where AI is used but it doesn’t seem unreasonable for an employer to expect staff to keep up.
I deal with Accenture in day to day life as a 3rd party supplier – the most useless, incompetent, unskilled dogshit company I’ve ever had the displeasure to work with.
Ooh an already crap company that inexplicably makes millions from Government contracts makes a public announcing they only want vibe coders (or whatever the equivalent is for other skillsets is).
And they still make millions more sadly.
Yes; I’ve worked on projects with these idiots before. AI is not going to help them collect the requirements for the project. It’s not going to help them after we’ve explained for the 40th damn time what the requirements are. It’s not going to help them when they turn in high school quality code that looks like it was copy pasted from StackOverflow.
But somehow they’ll still make millions; while my coworkers and I rewrite from scratch the project they turned in (seriously; twice now my org has used them, and twice now we’ve been forced to throw out everything they created and redo it all from scratch).
I honestly don’t understand why organizations pay Accenture to do anything. I guess their true skill is convincing executives they have something of value to offer.
I’ve only ever seen them come in and make a big mess of things.
What’s funny is any company that is primally run by AI will put themselves out of business because anyone can use AI to do the same job if they learn the inputs.
What do they mean cant use ai? Like literally everyone can by putting a sentence you need?
Everyone is able to use AI. A toddler could use AI. It’s more a case that some people **choose** not to use AI, which is different to „can’t use AI“
