Bets $10k at 50/50 that top Slack agent by token spend in Q4 2027 won't need @-mentions

A debate on Slack agent UX: @dylanga argues @-mentioning is the superior interaction model because it's an explicit handoff between human conversation and agent work, and that ambient agents break down mid-incident when you must course-correct both humans and agents. philhchen disagrees, offering $10k at 50/50 odds that the highest token-usage Slack agent by Q4 2027 will not require @-mentioning.
