The main story of agent use cases is in enterprise so far. An enterprise will only pay for a model capable of handling the task and no more. Most enterprise's see no need to hire PhDs as factory line workers.

Coding is an interesting case as [1] the pace of progress has been absurd and [2] it's hard to put an upper bound on required capability. However hard to put a bound on and will are different, it's quite possible that the average engineer will cease to see the benefit of rapid progress - or that their employer will be satisfied with lower tier models.

How smart of a model do you need to build a high quality CRUD app for internal users? Or build a scalable web service?
