I agree, I think for agents though, documentation does more harm than good. When I'm writing code with an agent I tell it to skip documentation entirely (reading or writing it) and it leads to more accurate outcomes.

When agents write most of our code, I question if we will still even need documentation.

I think that's a fair take. I think we definitely still need specs that describe the desired behavior as an artifact. But documentation describing the implementation definitely feels less important.
