I think this pair of tweets is a good call on where AI agents like Replit will take us.
On the business side, you’ve got a generation of companies that will move faster because it’s finally cheap to throw stuff at a wall and see what sticks.

What’s new with Replit
Not exactly an update, but it looks like a future where AI can use Replit Agent on your behalf is getting close. If you’ve got access to ChatGPT’s Operator, give it a try.

Onto the stuff we know about - the official changelog notes a few little tweaks - Assistants + Workflows, quicker .zip downloads for projects and improvements to deployments (making them cheaper).
