Masad: Many software engineers are laggards in adopting AI agents

Masad: AI context windows now exceed human context capacity
“I think we've already crossed a threshold. Yeah. For which the context links Is larger than any context that human can have. Right. And I think that's huge because, I mean, just think back two years ago we had 16 K context link. Right now we have a one million…”

Masad: Purge fixed bug history from AI agent context memory

Masad: Medvi founder runs 50 apps on Replit for back-office operations
