The close to final form of AI coding seems to be near.
When scaling oneself, you need people. So, at best, you can create systems for others and tell them to do things.
Agents will crunch through entire lists in parallel and on the cloud
You have a lot of things to do, so if you store things for the entire company it becomes a task list like Linear or Jira.
In fact, even an entire list of tasks to do and taking the agents to run them in parallel is going to be too annoying. You’re just going to throw the whole .MD file into the composer and it’ll split it into tasks and run agents in parallel for you.
But just for the agent, rather than opening up a new window for each thing you want to be done, you instead have a whole list of things. It’s just like your AI chatbots, but they go do an entire thing instead of just responding with text or doing some AI searches (Manus/Deep Research).

Ideally you have instant previews so you can deploy numerous instances of your app and click around to see how it is going. Then you choose or reject the changes. When you put these tools in the cloud, running for each type of AI model rather than trying them all manually, it becomes powerful.
Not sure agents can run the entire show
Some say you can have agents orchestrate the whole thing:

But this comes from wanting AI to create complexity for humans to harvest as if it were potatoes. We are not quite there yet, but if such a thing were possible we would just sit around and the robots/servants would do everything for us.
At best it’ll be like a bunch of dogs who go around and fetch things for us. You can’t tell it to go drop your car off at the shop, but you could probably call a place and they could receive a call using agents as it is right now. You could have it analyze different products, but is there any guarantee it would find you the best/most suitable? You’d still have to try it out.
Flying drones will probably come by the house to deliver packages/returns.
