Totally disagree on the reevaluation of architecture best practices.
Agents are as prone as forgetting to update duplicated code as we are ( or almost ), because they work at the same level : text files spread everywhere that you have to open and read to know what's inside.
The fundamental reasons for those architecture best practices are still there, and it's actually quite convenient and also a good reason to remain optimistic in our ability to find a job as a professional software developer.
