The multi agent thing with different roles is so obviously not a great concept, that I am very hesitant to build towards it, even thought it seems to win out right now. We want a AI that internally does what it needs to do to solve a problem, given a good enough problem description, tools and context. I really do not want to have to worry about breaking up tasks into chunks that are smaller than what I could handle myself, and I really hope that that in the near future this will go away.

People creating products need to do what gives results right now. And I can attest that breaking up jobs into small steps seems to work better for most scenarios. When that becomes unnecessary, creating products that are useful will become much easier for sure, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.
I’m not being sarcastic when I say that I think supervisor agents and agent swarms in general are the way forward here
