Original excerpt
The technology landscape in early 2026 is undergoing a shift similar to the rise of the modern web stack. AI is moving beyond simple prompt-based interactions toward autonomous, continuously evolving agents. These long-running agents, which many experienced recently on a more personal level through “claws”, can break down goals, execute code, and operate independently for extended periods.
