I think we are approaching that now, with correct expectations. With frontier large models you can often one-shot tasks with vague prompts for stuff like creating CRUD APIs and dashboards around a simple data model since it's such a solved-problem now. With something like Qwen3.6 27B or 35B-A3B and a Strix Halo level computer or a MBP with 32GB or more or RAM, you may need to be more explicit and stay involved and be a little more patient, but you can absolutely get work done with it or delegate tasks to it successfully.

My Framework Desktop does a lot of similar work as my Claude subscription at work (Cowork, chats) for 100W of power draw and a little patience waiting for a slow GPU with limited memory bandwidth to crunch the numbers. Agentic coding is obviously weaker but CRUD development and visualization dashboards are within reach, and I'm usually pleasantly surprised at its ability to self-manage devops.
