Direct answer
No — not healthy teams doing varied work. Agents replace task hours, not accountability. Expect augmentation: smaller teams handling more volume with better tools.
Key points
- Roles compress (L1 + agent vs L1 + L2)
- New roles appear: agent Keeper, eval owner
- Companies that cut all humans lose judgment and client trust
Org model
Humans: own relationships, exceptions, ethics, creative bets
Agents: run loops, drafts, monitors, hygiene
Plan headcount for oversight, not zero ops.
