I think the original post was just headline bait. There is such a fast news cycle around AI that many people would take "Thousands of AI agents collaborate to make a web browser" at face value.

At least I now have something to link to, when this inevitable gets mentioned in some off-hand HN comment, about how "now AI agents can build whole browsers from scratch".
Literally happened at work. Breathless thread of people saying how insane it was and then we got to link this and it immediately 180-ed and everyone was like “holy shit that’s messed up”
yup, same. slack thread with a lot of comments with people praising it.
others were quite skeptical, specially the ones that actually perused the code.
And I haven't even published part 2 yet!
It's a great post, I will use it for the same. Thank you.
A fast news cycle around projects that don't actually work. It's a real bummer that "fake news" became politically charged because it's a perfect description of this segment.
