Episode notes

I literally just type the comment, separate, you know, create a MP3 and then it writes the whole thing for me. It wasn't even that much code. The key point was that it happened in a second. And that I was like, Oh my God, I can just do that. And it works. That's kind of still just the first paradigm, right, where it's just kind of doing that in line auto completion.

In this episode, Nathan sits down with Tyler Angert, Product Designer at Replit, to discuss the future of software development. Replit is building what CEO Amjad Masad calls "the perfect substrate for AGI." In this discussion, Tyler and Nathan discuss how Replit is leveraging AI to enhance its current product, bot-bot interactions, the design and ethical considerations around AI agents, and more.
