Some fields are experiencing rapid, visible transformation, while others are evolving more gradually. The extent of change largely depends on how structured, repeatable and risk-sensitive the work is. Software development, legal services and accounting offer a useful lens for understanding these differences as some of the most exposed industries, according to research from Anthropic. I see these dynamics firsthand through running a software development agency that works with clients across these professional services industries. That experience has given me a practical view of how AI is beginning to reshape workflows, expectations and value creation in these fields.Software Development: From Execution To OrchestrationIn software development, AI-powered tools like Cursor and Lovable are fundamentally changing how software gets built. These tools can generate code, refactor entire systems, debug issues and even create full applications from simple prompts. Tasks that once took hours, such as writing boilerplate code or troubleshooting errors, can now be completed in minutes. This has increased productivity and lowered the barrier to entry, enabling small teams or even solo founders to build products that previously required large engineering organizations.Because of this, we’ve encouraged engineers at my agency to integrate AI into their daily workflows where it meaningfully improves the process. I've found this especially valuable when building features that aren't ful...
