An estimated 60% of new requirements artifacts are now generated by AI agents. The critical capability is validating the 40% AI cannot assure itself — that is where the future of requirements engineers, business analysts and quality professionals lives.
Three capabilities that become MORE valuable: engineering the context for requirements (OpenRequirements.AI and the DeFOSPAM methodology) · reviewing with heuristic judgment (OpenTest.AI’s 33+ specialized virtual tester profiles) · orchestrating trust in AI-generated specifications.
By the end you’ll have a practical plan to become part of the "Irreplaceable 40%."
