Your Agentic AI Probably Isn’t Agentic

Most “agentic AI” is just if-else trees wearing a trench coat. Real agency sets goals, recovers from faceplants, and knows when to call a human.

AI agents are starting to do the work software used to help with. If your tool isn’t sticky, it’s auditioning for a part the story doesn’t need.

Software is fading like the dentist’s fax machine. Coding got deskilled, mid-tier SaaS is sweating, and agents are eating the middle step.

Software used to ask “how do I do this?” Now agents do the task for you. The middle layer of generic apps is getting squeezed out.

Four shifts hint your software might be obsolete in five years: coding deskills, SaaS moats thin, agents do the work, and middlemen get cut.
