Doesn't this imply a quite insular, and somewhat anti human (if you allow me to be a bit flowery) future? I get other people can be annoying but that's part of us as a species. All of us now just working in our little silo with all our llm tools doesn't seem like a lot of fun long term

Just because you are working with a team of coding agents doesn't mean you don't also get to work with other humans as well.

What's changed is the scope of ambition of the projects you can take on with that team.

Think about a project that a team of 3 could have taken on together in 2022. I expect that many projects of that scale could be handled in 2025 by a single expert coding agent enhanced engineer.

So now we get to ask ourselves what a team of 3 coding agent enhanced engineers working together can take on instead!

I've always been frustrated at how long it takes to build interesting software. Part of the joy for me right now is rediscovering how large a project an individual or a small team can take on.

Sounds like great fun to me
