Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke is changing his company's approach to hiring in the age of AI. Employees will be expected to prove why they "cannot get what they want done using AI" before asking for more headcount and resources, Lutke wrote in a memo to staffers that he posted to X. From a report: "What would this area look like if autonomous AI agents were already part of the team?" Lutke wrote in the memo, which was sent to employees late last month. "This question can lead to really fun discussions and projects." Lutke also said there's a "fundamental expectation" across Shopify that employees embrace AI in their daily work, saying it has been a "multiplier" of productivity for those who have used it.
"I've seen many of these people approach implausible tasks, ones we wouldn't even have chosen to tackle before, with reflexive and brilliant usage of AI to get 100X the work done," Lutke wrote. The company, which sells web-based software that helps online retailers manage sales and run their operations, will factor AI usage into performance reviews, he added.

Shopify sites that suck can be chalked up mostly to bad implementations, IMO.
Having written (from scratch) the data feed from an ERP system to / from Shopify, you are right: implementation is king here. Screw that up, and your site is toast.
The data feed I wrote transfers Shopify orders into the ERP every 10 minutes, order updates daily and inventory updates twice a day. It took six months to write this interface, and getting gift cards to work was a right pain (how many notes do you see with confusing discounts and gift cards?).
Regardless of vendor, the site proprietor is probably going to fuck up their instance through incompetence/negligence.
If it weren't for the automatic feeds, the business would be overwhelmed by the number of orders. With the site running really well, they mostly leave it alone until they have new products to sell.
However...
I've also been (partially) involved with a failed rollout. The client spent half a million dollars on the site (and other properties, such as content managements systems), mostly because the implementation team (another division of the company I work for, unfortunately) promised they could eliminate the need for their ERP system through their brilliant design. The ERP system was reduced to a data feed based on SQL views. It was so bad the client pulled the pin a week before go-live.
In both cases, Shopify as a platform worked well. The implementation team makes or breaks it.

It’s not collaboration if you’re competing with the thing you’re supposed to be collaborating with. In the future, your job interview will be a Turing test—and the AI is on the panel.
What’s being sold as an “AI-first” innovation strategy is, in reality, a reframing of resource constraints as creative empowerment. Shopify’s CEO is using optimistic language—“fun discussions,” “brilliant usage of AI,” “100X the work”—to reposition what is effectively a cost-cutting policy as a visionary approach to productivity.
But the underlying message to employees is clear:
Prove your role can’t be automated before asking for help.
That’s not collaboration. It’s competition masquerading as collaboration. AI isn’t being used to augment human potential—it’s being positioned as the metric by which human value is measured. And anyone who’s worked in a large corporation will recognize the pattern: bring in a shiny new system, claim it’s here to assist, then gradually push employees to train it, measure against it, and eventually get displaced by it.
I’ve lived through this before—watching long-time employees told to train third-party contractors who then replaced them. The only difference now is that the contractor has been rebranded as “autonomous AI,” and the pink slips are wrapped in a TED Talk.
The philosophical problem is that workers are now being asked to justify their relevance not on the basis of creativity, judgment, or experience—but on their ability to beat automation at its own game. That’s not a collaborative future. That’s just a new face on the same old race to the bottom.
