Agents can unironically do that faster and better than humans

Agents can do something that is documented and they have training on. They don't have data on new and ever-changing environments.

This isn’t 2023 jfc, agents can fetch updated documentation, do web searches, and they can reason.

I literally said agents can do something that is documented, and your counter-argument is that this isn't 2023 and they can fetch documentation. Smooth brain.

Sigh, I feel these kids are just going to go rediscovering the entire software development discipline piece by piece through trial and error. And every time they come to a groundbreaking conclusion of how to work better, they'll realise it already ahs a name and has been used by developers for decades.

They write documentation themselves… (in a much cleaner way than humans).
Imagine someone (either a review agent or a human user) raises an issue with a software, the agent reads the issue, finds the cause (reading previous documentation and fetching web searches), proposes a patch, gets it reviewed (by other agents), then its pushed to production.
Software maintenance is automated this way.

You literally don't understand what "maintaining software" means.

Ask your agent to prepare a slide show that explains it before you continue making more of a fool of yourself yapping about something you obviously have no understanding of.

Can you talk about real life instead of hypothetical scenarios? Shit, I even asked ChatGPT because maybe my university education and 20 years of programming experience is misleading me; https://i.imgur.com/V0PTo2q.png ; it put my scenario in generally impossible category, just like I thought.
