Beyond Agents: Building the Primitives of AI Native Software
AI Engineer · youtube · 2026-08-08
In his talk, Kwindla Kramer argues that today's AI agents are like web pages in 1995: a primitive, not a destination. The real opportunity lies in the "AI native software" that follows.
He reviews the history of computing abstractions, using VisiCalc to illustrate that new technologies create new categories of work rather than destroying them. He concludes by showcasing future technical primitives—like asynchronous non-blocking context compression, long-running subagents sharing context, and dynamic interface generation—through a multiplayer game called Gradient Bang, where every core interaction is driven by an LLM.
