Outpaced by reality once again ! This is very near the kind of stuff I thought about. I explored the underlying tech marketing sites and felt old. I guess an organisation could have a stateful “world” that represents all their ongoing projects, and have swarms of agents “cities” that allocate resources and/or collaborate through global “institutions” to help factor projects in the light of business goals, while cities have “districts” or other things working on the actual details of each project. The next-gen developer would then log into this world and see how things are going by questioning “officials”. Thinking about it more, I might have gotten this idea from Cixin Liu’s _The supernova era_ which is a sci-fi port of William Golding’s _Lord of the flies_. Well Gas Town looks already like that but the next step might be realizing interacting with this through text and terminals makes the management too much one-dimensional, whereas two-dimensional models (infinite canvases) or three-dimensional ones with a notion of permanence (RPG-like worlds) would be more apt. I’ll watch this from very, very far away if it happens ! But as we seem to collectively **love** stacking complexity in layers, I don’t see why it wouldn’t happen – except if it is a bit too much complexity to build with claude code ? --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.elixirforum.com/t/autonomous-ai-dev-workflows/74013)._
