From the article's "highlights"
Quote: replacements or supplements to traditional IT roles, emphasizing specialization and broader skill sets.
OK, so which is it, more specialization or broader skills. These are contradictory. Didn't read past this point as the author is obviously either clueless or paid by the word.

20 to 30 years ago, I took great pleasure in reading the website of "The One Million Dollar Challenge" of James Randi, who offered a million dollars to anyone who could demonstrate any supernatural or paranormal abilities under controlled test conditions.
Later the challenge was extended to cover certain 'golden ear' HiFi freak things, such as exceptional speaker cables with a price tag of hundreds of dollars per foot.
The website used to publish the complete correspondence between the candidate and the 'James Randi Educational Foundation' (JREF). Especially funny was all the excuses the candidates brought up for rejecting the test conditions required by James Randi. (He had worked as a highly recognized stage magician for many years before establishing JREF; he knows most of the tricks!)
From 1964 (when the challenge were first announced, then at USD 1000) to 2015, noone got even close to demonstrate their abilities under controlled conditions. Most of those who tried rejected the test conditions, either early in the preparatory phases or when the test was to be performed. Most never got as far as entering real negotiations about test conditions, and the JREF web site presented their correspondence explaining how the test requirements had to be changed for them to display their special abilities.
This correspondence log varied from entertaining to funny - and sometimes hilarious. I haven't been thinking of it for a few years, but now that I am reminded of it, I seriously miss it!

Microsoft Mesh, now in public preview, is a new 3D immersive experience for the workplace, helping virtual meetings and events feel more like face-to-face connections. Who has been requesting this?
If people didn't like it when it was Second Life, or whatever Face^H^H^H^HMeta called their thing (metaverse?), or any of the other attempts at this, why are they going to jump now? Zoom/Teams is bad enough.

Aw, come on. Who wouldn't want to attend a business meeting surrounded by a cast from a D&D game and a couple of dragons?

I would love to have that when I play online, but definitivelly not for a business meeting.
There already are enough people that make me waste my time in useless meetings, to just give them new weapons to feel even more important than now.

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Individuals pay $10 a month for the AI assistant. In the first few months of this year, the company was losing on average more than $20 a month per user, according to a person familiar with the figures, who said some users were costing the company as much as $80 a month. Pretty soon that adds up to real money
