That scenario is a lot further out compared to what I was talking about.
It's conceivable that thats going to happen, eventually. but that'd likely require models a lot more advanced to what we have now.
The agent approach with lead devs administering and merging the code the agents made is feasible with today's models. The missing part is the tooling around the models and the development practices that that standardizes this workflow.
That's what I'd expect to take around 5 yrs to settle.
