Replit CEO sees AI as 'self-driving company' future

replit ceo amjad masad described a future where ai agents work alongside humans, automating routine tasks and freeing people to focus on high-level decision-making. at replit, ai agents now handle initial support ticket triage, examining github issues, codebases, and linear tickets before human intervention. when humans do intervene, they can deploy fixes with just a click, thanks to another agent. masad believes this shift will change the nature of work, with humans spending more time on architecture, strategy, and creative problem-solving. he sees this as a positive vision for the future of work, where ai enhances human productivity and happiness.
