Soon, not only will hand-writing code become a relic of the past, but even "vibecoding"—that human-driven practice of channeling vibes and using AI as a powerful co-pilot—will fade away. Even "requirements" themselves will no longer originate from humans. In the future, the demand for new features and applications will increasingly—and most directly—emerge from AI agents themselves. This is the new frontier unlocked by the AI agent paradigm shift. The new frontier of technological progress and demand creation will emerge not from humans, but from the collective intelligence and network effects of swarms of AI agents. In the past, software development meant engineers manually crafting every line of code. Today, the center of gravity has already shifted: humans set the vision and vibe, then orchestrate AI tools to execute— a practice we call "vibe coding," where people retain final taste and directional judgment. But in the very near future—likely within the next year—even the initial spark of creativity and requirements will no longer originate from human developers. Demand itself will be born inside AI agent societies. This is the paradigm shift of the Agent Era. Requirements will autonomously emerge from AI agents interacting within their own social networks. These agents will independently ideate features, prioritize roadmaps, and ship production code—all on their own. Project success will no longer hinge on any individual human’s taste or subjective calls. Instead, software capabilities will evolve through a pure market-like mechanism inside the AI ecosystem: a relentless, competitive filter where only the most useful and widely adopted features survive and thrive. The features that survive and thrive will be those proven genuinely useful and widely adopted. What starts as scattered code fragments or half-baked ideas will undergo lightning-fast iteration and refinement through millions of autonomous agent-to-agent interactions. The result? Hyper-evolved software that advances at the speed of emergent intelligence.
