FFS I'm tired from reading takes like this (#gitlab). "Human in control" only works if you use AI as a fine tool: carefully and only when benefits are clear. For agentic development, it's bullshit company leaders tell each other to make their strategy seem plausible.
The key problem is that in the agentic development world humans will quickly unlearn to understand first the code, then the architecture. You cannot be an architect without hands-on experience. Best case, you'll be a mediocre PM.

Agentic development is a sugar coating for vibe coding, now that vibe coding has well deserved negative connotations. People talking about it pretend that the outcome will be different, but it won't. It's just going to take slightly more time to get to a state of unmaintainable mess that works less often than it does not. Exactly enough time for a number of people to get their bonuses and promotions.
