I assume having a person write words for other people to read is not feasible?

Humans cannot be in the loop for autonomous work. I have agents review code and design/architecture documents, write alert messages based on rules, write analyses (e.g. outage incidents), and many other things. "Having a person write words" would mean not using agents, defeating the whole point.

I do not use agents to write on behalf of myself. I write my won technical write-ups and my own slide presentations. A lot of people don't; and it shows. There's much that agents can do better than humans now, but not everything.
