Yeah I am not sure many people gonna hang around this - I am not sure I wanna do this role. I like building and delivering and ai is great help but I will not be happy supervising agents, there are better jobs. Unless the money is not to be refused

That's a very real concern. For a long time programming felt like a craft: you build something, run it, improve it. Agent workflows introduce a different kind of work. You're not just building anymore, you're supervising. Some people enjoy that shift toward orchestration. Others really don't. I suspect we'll eventually see tools that try to restore the "build and run" feeling instead of turning developers into supervisors.
