This podcast episode focuses on the emerging concept of "agent experience" in software development, particularly in the context of AI. The interview begins with a discussion on how building for AI agents differs from building for humans, highlighting the importance of seamless API flows that allow agents to interact with products without user sign-up. The conversation then explores the impact of AI on UX/UI design, the shift from generic SaaS tools to custom internal apps, and the future of various platforms like Salesforce and Figma. A key takeaway is that while AI-powered tools will lower the barrier to entry for software development, specialized skills will remain valuable, leading to a potential surge in the number of software developers. The discussion concludes with predictions on the future of LLMs and the importance of open platforms in fostering innovation.
