|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | HIGH | Zach Lloyd (CEO and founder) | Warp | 05:10 | 02-corporate-tools | The terminal has become, I think, the preferred form factor for working with agents. Everything is time-based. It’s all about input of text and output of text. You can multitask agents in the terminal really easily. |
| 2 | HIGH | Zach Lloyd (CEO and founder) | Warp | 31:51 | 12-agent-workers | We’re building this out right now. And we’re having all sorts of internal debates on whether it’s… it should be one product or two products. The way that we’re doing it right now and how I think other people will probably approach this is like a sort of like area of our app, which is about agent orchestration. |
| 3 | HIGH | Zach Lloyd (CEO and founder) | Warp | 39:58 | 01-ai-native-landscape | I think that the limiting factor that we’re going to come up against is just like expression of intent from humans in terms of like, what do you want built? How do you build it? Like, how do you express that clearly? English is ambiguous. |
