I anticipate a control issue, where agents can produce code faster than people can analyze and beside applications with small visible surfaces, nobody will be able to check what is going on
I saw people with trouble manipulating boolean tables of 3 variables in their head trying to generate complete web applications, it will work for linear duties (input -> processing -> storage) but I highly doubt they will be able to understand anything with 2nd order effects

To be fair, 3 booleans (2^3=8) is more working memory than most people are productive with. Way more if they’re nullable :)
I think we have to treat the algorithm as a medical tool here, whose maintenance will be prioritised as such. So your premise is similar to "If all the scalpels break...".
