What’s your take on AIs gettin exponentially better?
If everything from client data ingestion and calls to actual slide-making can be handled by OpenClaw-like agents or voice agents, what’s genuinely left in consulting? you just need 1 vibecodin client stakeholder
If AI can identify problems, derive solutions using firm-wide integrations, and even produce polished deliverables, where do we still add value?
Will consulting eventually boil down to just relationship-building, and stakeholder mgmt?

AI can’t do any of that yet lol

A lot of non-tech consulting has always boiled down to relationship building and stakeholder management with a layer of analytics on top.

Whether the analytics is done by AI or Excel doesn’t make a huge difference

Yes, it’s getting very good. My team built a cli that ingests customer data and runs anthropic models on it to build dashboards and provide all sorts of insights on the PM/consulting side and awesome coding on the security engineering side. The biggest issue is and will be cost. My compute bills are almost 4x from last month and 10x from 3 months ago.

like

My teams compute cost were $12k this month. Expecting it to keep on rising. I’ve asked our leadership about it and they don’t care for now. They want us to be ai first in everything we do. Let’s see what happens in 12 months. I personally am going to start pushing the team to use a tiered approach - simple tasks use cheaper models first

Your description of a consulting project indicates that the work you’re doing is probably unnecessary (not just in need of being replaced)

And yes, aware BCG does plenty of this kind of work

There will still be a role for expertise and judgment for some while to come - problem is many consultants never had that in the first place

It’s scary to be honest. I think AI will destroy many moats of knowledge work. Hopefully lifts others up instead of just knocking white collar workers down. UBI has better work or we see screwed as a race. I think the future is kind of scary and I’m a tech person

The uptake on the industry side is surprisingly slower than you'd think. I've been watching my spouse battle it out over the last 6 months with chain of command on a side project that would automate a good chunk of bug analysis work. Individual use is good but at scale to full on replace teams isn't there yet, mostly due to leadership bureaucracy.

If you think OpenClaw is enterprise software, you probably shouldn’t be giving advice to CIO’s
