I think this misses the point, see the other comments. Fully scaled agentic coding replaces managers too :) cause for celebration all around

No, it becomes only managers, because they are the ones who dictate the business needs (because otherwise, what is the software the agents are making even doing without such goals), and now even worse with non technical ones.

I don't believe that. If you go fully agentic and you don't understand the output, you become the manager. You're in no better position than the pointy-haired boss from Dilbert.

    Hey just wanted to thank you for the healthy back and forth! I respect your opinion and don't hold mine strongly. That said I'm eager for this space to mature and for us all to figure out the best way to interact with fault prone code generation tooling... Especially at scale where we all have the hardest time navigating complexity.

      Thanks. It's fun chatting about this stuff! I don't hold mine strongly, either, though I am dealing with lots of AI generated slop code from others.

      Interesting times ahead.
