Notion co-founder: agents come and go, but your shared context should compound

Notion co-founder akothari laid out his thesis for the multi-agent era: "Own your context. Rent the intelligence."

His argument: teams will use multiple agents to get work done, and the key is to keep building and owning the shared context between them. That shared context makes every agent sharper and travels with you to whichever agent you try next.

His prediction: agents will come and go, but your context should compound. The take resonated widely — one viral quip called Notion "the Switzerland of AI," a neutral platform not tied to any single model.
