We replaced most of our juniors and seniors at my company with AI.

We only have like 2 seniors down from 30 and they are more productive than ever.

I expect with Mythos we can get this down to at least 1 highly paid senior engineer and the rest a swarm of agents they are managing.

What exactly was your company doing such that the concurrent development of features and infrastructure by 30 people is now done by 2? Each engineer is monitoring 15 Claude swarms?
We just have regular web, backend, search, ingestion, frontend and mobile codebases.

Turns out we didn't need these engineers and you can just have one or two strong seniors on this.

They are more productive than ever.
