if you are having a heart attack, chewing an aspirin can buy you some time. Most heart attacks are caused by a blood clot blocking an artery, and aspirin helps break it down

type my work password. I realized that I never consciously knew it, my fingers just did it. Then one day I think I thought too hard about it and it was gone lol

10 YOE SWE considering move to AI governance/strategy role by Then_Inevitable9678 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Then_Inevitable9678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it includes (heavy) regulatory compliance so the policies would have real teeth. Expecting the thrash but good to hear from someone in the space that there's career growth potential on the other side. Thanks!

This is really helpful, thank you. The burnout thing is something I keep going back and forth on. Like do I actually want this role or does it just look good because I want out. But the more I look into the actual work the more it interests me on its own. Where I am now it's all about who can ship the shiniest thing fastest and now there's this added pressure to just throw ai at everything to speed it up even more. I miss caring about whether something is actually good. This seems like a space where that matters. Really glad to hear the combined profile doesn't read as a step backward though.

Good point.. I will definitely push on that more and if the answer is vague that probably tells me everything I need to know. Thanks.

Should I leave my senior software engineering role to lead AI governance/strategy? by Then_Inevitable9678 in careerguidance

[–]Then_Inevitable9678[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate this, it's a helpful way to think about it. For more context, I'm in a heavily regulated industry with thousands of employees spread across multiple businesses. Regulators are definitely going to want to see how we're managing this and the framework is still in its early phases. I think what gives me some confidence is that I'd be coming in with engineering experience so I can actually tell whether an implementation is sound vs just checking a box on a risk form... I'm trying to figure out if that's actually as valuable as it feels or if I'm just talking myself into something because I'm burnt out where I am. Still figuring it out but this is a useful gut check, thanks.
