> Agent-based development means more thinking like a lower level manager. You spend more time making architecture decisions, making decisions on the user interface,

Whose manager is making these decisions? My managers have always been concerned with how much workload everyone has, delegating tasks at an extremely high level that they barely understand, and handling the messy human interface between their reports and senior leadership so that everyone on their team is kept happy and properly compensated.

I have been in this industry for almost twenty years and I have NEVER had an engineering manager making architecture decisions (that's either my job or the lead engineer's job, depending) or UX interface decisions (that's the realm of Product).

If my LLM agents start taking sick leaves and pager duty rotations then I'll start entertaining this bullshit line about being a manager
