The skill that gets automated first is the one that looks most like translation work.
Building flows in Power Automate is translation work: take a business requirement, find the right connectors, chain them, test. That is a procedural task. AI does procedural tasks.
The skill that does not get automated:
Knowing what the business actually needs.
Understanding the domain well enough to catch what AI gets wrong.
Recognising the edge case that lives in a three-year-old decision nobody wrote down.
Power Automate connectors were a tool for expressing intent. AI is now better at constructing that expression.
The value moves upstream. To the intent itself.
"Automation strategist" compounds from here. "Flow builder" does not.
