In the AI era: what happens to Computer and information systems managers
The core decision-making, cross-departmental coordination, and interpersonal management of computer and information systems managers are hard to replace, but AI will automate project management, report generation, code review, etc., compressing some middle management roles.

Replacing some coding work in software development tasks, reducing project managers' reliance on development teams, especially in code review and prototyping.
-
It replaces some project planning, task assignment, and progress tracking work, reducing the manual workload of project managers in scheduling and resource allocation.
-
Replace some coding and debugging tasks, enabling project managers to push software development projects more efficiently, reducing reliance on senior engineers.
-
Replaces part of the document writing, communication coordination, and report generation work, reducing the time project managers spend on administrative tasks.

Junior project manager or IT coordinator positions are decreasing because AI can automatically assign tasks, track progress, and generate status reports. Companies prefer to hire senior managers who can use AI tools directly, raising entry barriers.
Transitioning from traditional project management to an 'AI-enhanced technology strategy manager': mastering AI toolchains (e.g., GitHub Copilot, automated testing frameworks) to become a driver of AI adoption within the organization; cultivating data-driven decision-making skills, shifting from execution to strategy; while maintaining investment in interpersonal relationships and leadership to solidify irreplaceability in senior management.
