How wildly dismissive of the foundation of the X$ billion dollar software industry. You think humans just stumbled into writing code by accident or something?

How does building agentic systems, a "really hard" problem, not just end up a "regular code" problem? Because that is what it is. A distributed systems problem with non-deterministic run lengths. How do you switch agent contexts? Similar to how you solve regular program context switching. How do you search tool capabilities and verify them? How do you effectively manage scheduled tasks?

Oh, look, you've just invented the operating system kernel. Suddenly, those 'dozen or two' experts don't seem so archaic after all!
