Agentic swarms are an org-chart delusion (joanwestenberg.com)

The people who will thrive aren’t “agent managers.” They’re people who can say what they want and evaluate whether they got it - and whether what they got was either good or shit.

This is test driven development with natural language. It’s all feedback loops, the tools and modes of collaboration are changing.

Every time a tool collapses specialized roles into generalist capability, the generalists inherit the earth — no matter how loudly the specialists insist their particular expertise can’t be automated or absorbed.

Reminds me of the neverending competition of products bundling for capture and unbundling for disruption. Career opportunities oscillate between maximizing via specialization and hedging with generalization. Stasis is a myth. Blessed are the generalists.
