That just sounds like everyone is going to be management. Blindly setting goals and demanding features of a black box, formerly the development team, soon to be 'AI' agents.

And most of these "managers" are barking orders, with no faith or expectation they will be followed; along with this, they find the soft cooing sounds of empty apologies comforting, rather than root cause and accepting some of the responsibility; they blame the workers when conflicting orders are not followed, and engage in language lawyering. They ask "workers" to check their own work; several times. They demand workers misrepresent their expertise; they demand the appearance of certification (but obviously don't want to pay or negotiate with someone with the actual credentials). They interpret silence as permission.

You wanna work for that person?

I mean that's already happened. Everyone is expected to be a manager of agents. Anyone not doing this is programming for hobby.
