Agent clients are diverging fast as builders turn one base model into personal products

The author says many friends were building agent clients five months ago, and those clients have since evolved into very different products. Each one now reflects the builder’s own experience, judgment, taste, and aesthetics.
The post argues that some products need go-to-market help while others do not, but they are all being built on a common base and then vertically adapted. The quoted reply from DashHuang adds the thesis that any company, person, or student can now build their own general-purpose agent because software has already been fundamentally disrupted.
