I’m in IT consulting. I have personally done some really cool shit for my clients. Things they didn’t have the talent to do themselves. Business management consulting and tax audit consulting is a completely different story. I don’t help automate away jobs. I’m not presenting decks to strip companies and governments for parts. Needless to say, not all consulting is created equally and my hope is that there comes a time where this bubble bursts this push for AI dies on the vine.
Just to add the difference. Managed solutions typically has the consulting firm managing the maintenance. In some cases, they take over an existing solution vs the consulting company building something.
Mine also mentioned it on the last company retreat. That it’s important to look into using AI tools and not get “left behind”. Old geezers who don’t code anymore who think this is something we want to work with.
I’m fine with using AI as some sort of dynamic snippets tool where I myself know what I want the code to look like in the end, and where you don’t have to predefine those snippets. But not to write entire apps for me.
I don’t even use regular dumb snippets. It’s so easy to write code without them, why should I dumb myself down.
My consulting company is literally talking about nothing else. It’s fucking awful.
Consulting companies are ghouls in my opinion. 🤷♂️

Not trying to be snarky but what’s the difference between IT consulting and MSP? The line is blurry I think
We help them build solutions that they then maintain and own. I’m in analytics. So we’re doing data engineering, security, and delivery.
