“Having hallucinations in chatbots and in, like, image generators is, like, a really good thing, right? Because it gives you like, a starter tool for, like, getting to, like, solve the blank page problem, right? Like, and, like, gives you, like, little bits of …”

“Agents in five years time, I mean it's kind of gonna be, like, a non-invasive, like, brain-computer interface, basically. I think that's what an agent will be. Like, all of us are gonna be up-leveled. We're going to, you know, it's gonna feel like the same tra…”

“I kind of think that chat bots like chat GPT and stuff and agents are kind of becoming different species of technology a little bit, right? Like I think they'll be useful in very different ways and what they need to be used for super different, right?”

“Think about as a metaphor, like, robots are more like low-skilled employees, while agents are high-skilled employees. But you manage them within the same platform.”

“Ultimately, the two things that could really, very much shake the industry, the chip industry, in my opinion, is our agents and reasoning.”

“In fact, likely that some big enterprise is going to deploy an agent and the agent's going to do something really bad”

“And then you could speculate, can the agents maintain it? But I think. I think that, that then we are definitely in a 15, 20 year horizon before, before they could be relied on for anything like that.”

“The user interface that surfaces, those capabilities will probably be agents. And, you know, product managers, like I don't all don't believe in this, like one agent. For everything sort of theory. I think you'll have a lot of agents.”

“Agents cannot be trusted, and everyone in the industry knows this, and I didn't get it until this weekend. You cannot trust in it, and every single person will tell you can't trust it.”

“In the context of lovable I thought we should be building an agent Before, like, the models were ready for it, and because the models were starting to get optimized for an agentic system, and what I realized is that, no, no, no, you need to have a product that…”

“Most 25, twenty-six-year-old marketing managers or SDRs, I'm sorry to say it, they're not brilliant. They do not love the craft. They are not better than a phenomenal agent will be in the next 12 months. They will be replaced.”

“There'll be more agents in this country than humans soon enough.”

“Software is going to be purchased or used by agents. And what's going to happen is an agent, an autonomous agent becomes an employee. You give it credentials, you give it identity, and then it's up to the agent to make the decision. You will review them like a…”

“There are two times more people using agents in cursor than using the tab feature.”

“Database is a world where already the agents are creating more databases than humans. We've already crossed that line”

“I think, you know, for better or worse, agents are the solution to the problem that agents have caused. And that's why there's going to be a lot of money made in agentic security as well.”

“More and more the agent is going to choose what models and just what vendors we use.”

“All knowledge work is converging on training agents because it is structurally more efficient to do something once.”

“One of the largest things that people underestimate both in the context of AI labs as well as within the enterprise is how significant of a job category it is going to be to train agents.”

“And we've grown to accept that, that, you know, we're all here in the Valley with a plan. To automate white collar work such that there's going to be mass unemployment, according to these folks who are totally wrong, in my opinion, in three years, and all the …”

“The advertising model around like travel or shopping or like fashion are not getting disrupted by agents because the judgment is not objective. Any, anything where the judgment is objective, the transaction is based on objective judgment, that's going to get d…”

“Agent loops, agent harnesses are all running on CPUs. The tokens are produced by the frontier models on GPUs, but whatever work, like, let's say like Claude generates a coding script that decides to download 500 files from different websites and then You know,…”

“I do think engineering organizations are going to evolve. I don't know exactly what it looks like yet, but I think you will increasingly have probably somewhat smaller teams of higher caliber and higher quality engineers, because I think a lot of the lower lev…”

“I think some of the biggest insurers will struggle. They will not be able to keep up from a margin standpoint with where we can get to with agents. I think some of them do have Technical expertise. It's more operational and kind of people ops. If you've built …”

“I think in three years, companies will essentially be, like, board of directors, where 20% of the work is the strategy and the thinking, And then agents just do 80% of the execution, right?”

“It turns out when agents can run these GTM motions, they will consume 10 to a hundred times more usage than humans ever could. They can run GTM around the clock.”

“Everyone's going to get hacked because of agents, right? Because the cost of hacking has become almost zero and every surface is going to be attacked.”

“Our engineers, really what I'm looking for is 10 really good decisions per day, which is very tiring, not like optimizing the random parts of the code. And each one has like, you know, five to 18 agents running at any point in time, doing long horizon tasks on…”
