Replit CEO Amjad Masad says AI agents will handle much of the routine work at companies, leaving people to focus on judgment and taste.
He calls this model the "self-driving company." At Replit, agents first triage support tickets by reading GitHub issues, the codebase and Linear tickets. A human then decides on and deploys the fix. Masad says the shift has made people spend more time on what to build, architecture and whiteboarding.
