You say that with such conviction "the whole point is to think less". Why do you think that? I think no less now that I use AI agents all day long, I just think about different things. I don't think about where I place certain bits of code, how certain structures look like. Instead I think about data models, systems, and what the ideal deliverable looks like and how we can plan its implementation and let it execute by the willing agent. I think about how I best automate flows so that I can parallelize work, within a harness that reduces the possibilities for mistakes. I think a whole lot more about different technologies and frameworks, as the cost of exploring and experimenting with them has come down tremendously.

Will what I do now be automated eventually or before long? Probably, we keep automating things, so one has to swim up the abstraction layers. Doesn't mean one has to think less.
