    AI wonโ€™t replace software engineers, but it will expose the ones who never learned to think like engineers. Tools can speed you up, but if your thinkingโ€™s wrong, AI just gets you to the wrong place faster. Engineering still matters.

    Software metrics are for the team to see their progress - not for others to critique their performance.

    Yes, but to be clear, for exploratory testing, not regression testing. Let's use Humans for what they are good at: Fuzzy pattern matching, intelligent analysis. Let's use machines for what they are good at: Fast repeatable results for 10's, or 100's, of thousands of tests.
