The Orchestrator's Tax

> Context windows are only going to get bigger, that's a given.

This is certainly not a given, economically speaking. This stuff is tremendously resource-intensive to run at its current scale, and we've reached the top of the S-curve in terms of what LLMs are capable of. That's why this multi-agent orchestration nonsense is even necessary in the first place.

How much longer until your multi-agent orchestrator thingy slams so much slop into your codebase that your fleet of subagents can't work with it effectively anymore?

How long until you lose the last vestiges of the craft that worked so hard to acquire, the craft that you sacrificed so readily to the Faustian bargain of LLM programming?

The burgeoning AI slop cleanup crew industry is rubbing its hands together and eagerly awaiting the end of this insane blip in history.
