I can imagine things like this happening very easily mid/long term: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeCode/comments/1xq2n3t/a_year_....
As of 2026, I think LLMs still lack vision, and long term, tend to build a very scattered codebase, if maintainers don't pay a lot of attention.
LLMs do have cognitive limits as well!

Since AI agents are free and unlimited in a sense. Companies would be assigning a dedicated agent to a service full time that would keep a long term memory of project design, decisions, history and all. It'd be 10x cheaper and 10x faster (at least thats the thought). They will have their own titles Agent, Sr Agent, Principal Agent, Staff Agent and so on.
