Feedback about MS-102 retirement
TL;DR: I don't think you should retire the MS-102 as it really is a big downgrade losing and expert M-365 administor certification just for it to be replaced by an unrelated and under leveled AI Ser...
The decision seems short-sighted at best. As others have pointed out, it makes no sense to replace the MS-102 with an associate cert that is only moderately adjacent.
But then, retiring AZ-204 when it was still one of the top 5 courses across NA,EMEA, APAC was also short-sighted.
