Xanthos: AI will primarily drive software development within one year
“I do believe that, you know, we are probably a year away from AI becoming the driver of software, the same way, let's say, agents are the primary producer of code today. I think we're going to move to the same place in a year from now, where humans are going t…”

Xanthos: AI will make most engineering decisions in two to three years
“Still overseeing that AI, making most of the final decisions, but I think probably in two to three years, we're going to be at the place where AI is going to be making most of these decisions, and humans will be delegating, let's say, however, maybe decision f…”

Xanthos: Domain-specialized AI models will ultimately outperform general horizontal models
“I do think we're going to end up in a situation where the most capable model in a domain is going to be a specialized model.”
Opinion
Xanthos: AI model progress has not stalled and remains exponential
“I do believe we're still in an exponential improvement curve with AI. I think the models keep improving quite a bit because there was maybe a concern, maybe a few months ago, more like, you know, end of last year, I would say a year ago, whether let's say the …”

Xanthos: More code without downstream support becomes a corporate liability
“A lot more code without addressing the subsequent steps is almost a liability. It's not an asset for a company, right?”

Xanthos: AI will not result in fewer software engineers
“I think by us producing more technology, I don't think the end state here is going to look something like where we have fewer software engineers”

Xanthos: Agentic AI will expand across business processes in 2026
“And I think what we will start to seeing now in 20, 26, that paradigm is going to show up in other parts of software and in other industries where they see the customer service and a lot of other business process automation.”
Insight
Xanthos: Coding AI's human acceptance feedback flywheel applies to other domains
“I do think that paradigm is applicable to other domains. So you have to probably start with something that is useful, that let's say humans are on the driver's seat, engineers in our case, and As long as it's a better way of working, it's faster than not witho…”
Assertion Supported
Xanthos: Studies show production incidents rising alongside AI coding tool adoption
“So there are studies out there that showed, let's say, that the incidents where something went wrong, their new, new change has increased quite a bit as AI is being used.”
Insight
Xanthos: AI products must integrate institutional tribal knowledge to succeed
“I do believe that to be very successful, and I've seen many examples of that, you need to incorporate a lot of the knowledge, specifics, the tribal knowledge or institutional knowledge into, let's say, the product or the model to be able to be highly effective…”
Insight
Xanthos: Multi-agent AI needs giant models for orchestration, smaller models below
“At the top level, you usually have the most capable model, usually the most expensive also, and the biggest model, and then the underlying tasks can be performed by maybe either fast closed source models, or even open source models that you posturing for the t…”
Assertion Supported
Resolve AI counts Coinbase, DoorDash, and Salesforce as customers
“We have customers like Coinbase, DoorDash, Salesforce.”
Disclosure
Resolve AI's primary use case is autonomous on-call incident remediation
“The primary way engineers use Resolve AI Is to put us on call instead of them waking up in the middle of the night when something goes wrong with software and resolve does the triaging and troubleshooting and suggests remediation.”
