AI agents, orchestration, and the question of replacing my job
By Christopher Hamze · Archived October 2, 2026
Is my job going to be replaced by AI?
Absolutely.
I’ve made peace with it.
But after spending the last few months actually building agents,
I’ve also concluded that replacing me will require approximately:
48 agents
6 orchestration agents
72 API connections
830 billion tokens
and a Zapier workflow held together with gum.
Plus one agent constantly fixing what all the other agents confidently broke.
(That’s exactly what I’m doing right now.)
So yes, AI can replace me.
But it's probably cheaper to keep me around. 😅
