Open questions

  • Q01 Trend Which agent tasks can be trusted to run automatically, and which must always return to human judgment?
  • Q02 Possible path Does the durable agent surface live inside the OS, the browser, the IDE, or the publishing/operations system?
  • Q03 Constraint Will agent infrastructure become a standalone product category, or be absorbed by clouds and enterprise suites?
