I think this does a very good job of describing the real gaps agents are hitting in practical usage, along with a fairly compelling rationale for why those gaps aren't likely to disappear any time soon.

If we're going to stabilize the software industry, we need to have more discussions like this that identify what constraints apply. (We should have had those discussion before pushing AI out this widely, but that wouldn't have gotten anyone rich.)

I actually think that there's a world of software systems agents can change, but it's materially different from the one we have now, and has a different set of constraints that we've also mostly done a poor job identifying. So hopefully the discussion can help those of us on both sides. ;)
