I've been running Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex pretty heavily for the last few months and I keep hitting the same loop:

1. Start a task in one agent

2. Switch to something else (Slack, Twitter, another terminal)

I was reading this recent @OpenAI article about Gartner naming OpenAI a Leader in enterprise AI coding agents: https://openai.com/index/gartner....

"Software development is becoming more agentic." This is a good summary of what is happening right now. We are moving from AI that helps you write faster, to AI that can take over tasks (actions, use tools, make changes, run tests, and bring the work back for human review). That is a very different behavior.
The article gives Cisco as an example. They used Codex for a big part of their AI Defense platform and reduced delivery time from several quarters to a few weeks.

A lot of people try to raise funding before they even begin.

And then sometimes I read those zero to hero stories. (Maybe they re a bit "polished" by the media to have publicity.)

In any case, building products has become much easier from a technical perspective, which also makes it cheaper especially for software startups.
