Skills vs skills

Everything I need to learn is how to prompt ChatGTP!

There are skills that are more valuable than others, and some skills doesn't change over time.

In the dark ages, I was really good at Novell Netware 3.11. Today, that skill is of no use. But the experience of total system failures after upgrading business critical Netware servers, and how to recover gracefully is still of great value.

I don't program in assembly language anymore, but computers still work the same way. GPU's are zillion times faster today then back in the days when I learned the math behind the calculations. Those formulas are stll very valid today.

Understanding the business in 80's and do information modeling for relational databases back then is not much different from today.

The skills you need should not be about tools and certifications. Instead, what’s needed is understanding of the problem and which tools to use to solve complex problems.
