Resolve AI CEO Spiros Xanthos explains why software engineering was first to adopt AI agents and how the human-in-the-loop acceptance flywheel transfers to other fields.
“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 without that tool, then you can also create this data flywheel where we get essentially some sort of a response of whether what the AI did was accepted by a human. And then that creates essentially an improvement in the next cycle and a lot more automation over time.”

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 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 …”
