All we are hearing lately is Agents are the future, something flipped around
NOV 2025 with opus 4.5.  It turned snake oil into action.  It changed
programmers will be replaced in 6 months to now.  Not all of them, but probably
most of us who are not extraordinary.  If you fall into the camp of folks not
adopting, I got no issues with that.  No one is twisting your arm, well maybe
your boss or cto is, thats on them.  I don't mean to say this is the future as
in, get in or get left behind.  I mean it as this is where your other engineers
probably are, the junior to mid level engineers are here.  If you are not
trying to meet them where they are how are you going to lead them.
