Replit CEO Amjad Masad: "Communicating with an AI agent is very much like communicating with a human." "Previously you could get away by being a brilliant programmer but not knowing how to talk to people. You can’t anymore." "Your computers are people now." "It is giving an advantage to...

Replit CEO Amjad Masad: "Code is almost fully automated." "We have an automated software engineer that is as good as a mid-level software engineer. It would get a job at Facebook or Google." "Even professional software engineers are not coding anymore." "If you're a product builder, all you have to care about is who the customer is." "What do you understand about the world that other people don't? And can you put that into an app?" Amjad Masad with

"The world was built by people that are not much smarter than you." Replit CEO Amjad Masad on why old career advice no longer maps to reality: "There are a lot of rules that are accidental, that are there for historical reasons." "Your job is to find the path to the future. Find the way of doing things that's most aligned with where the world is headed." "It's not about cheating, it's about figuring out how the system is rigged against you. How do you actually hack it? How do you get past it?" "AI is a great tool for that." "If you're someone who just understands how these tools work, and understand how you have an amazing time advantage. You can do things a lot faster." "There are a lot of programmers that are still doing programming the old way, and they're going very, very slow... until they get obsoleted." Amjad Masad with jack neel

"When I got my first job in the US working for Codecademy... I told them, you can just pay me enough to eat. Just give me as much equity as you can give me." "I was paid $70,000 in New York City. You know how painful that was? I was living in a studio with other people." "But who cares?" "Your job is to build equity." "The best way to build equity is to start a business.

Replit CEO Amjad Masad: Being 'terminally online' may be an advantage. "If you want to work on a skill, it's going to be about idea generation." "Because the cost of implementation of those ideas is going down rapidly. It's gonna go to zero at some point." "So the bottleneck becomes, 'how fast can you generate ideas?'" "Just looking around you in the world and seeing what's happening. What are the trends? Are you plugged in on social media?" "A lot of the vices that older generations think are vices, might actually become advantages. So if you're a brainrotted, terminally online person, that might be an advantage because you know what's happening in the world." "If you're someone who's ADHD, really interested in novelty... that's actually an advantage because AI really benefits people who can try a lot of things really quickly." Amjad Masad with

Amjad Masad, CEO of Replit, on why founders need to go direct on every platform: "X is very good for Silicon Valley, for tech, for in-group messaging, for maybe one hop outside of Silicon Valley, which is the early adopter. Once you want to go to late adopters or early majority, Twitter becomes actually not very impactful there." "Instagram, Facebook, YouTube is where you get to the early majority. I just started focusing on it in maybe February or something like that, and we're getting an insane amount of views." "I would start with Twitter because that's where the news starts. This is where you can have outsized influence." Amjad Masad Erik Torenberg

Replit CEO Amjad Masad on why going direct wins: "Whenever there's a piece of communication or a story I wanna tell, and there's a choice between public and private, I might bias towards public. I often write something publicly and then paste it on Slack." "Being yourself is kind of a big radical thing that maybe started happening with Elon maybe 10 years ago. CEOs were supposed to be this very polished thing. They had to be filtered through this prism of PR, and journalists were kind of the way to get to the public." "Zuck changed the entire narrative around him by just being himself and actually talking directly to people." Amjad Masad Erik Torenberg

Replit CEO Amjad Masad on why the most ambitious employees are no longer blocked by engineering: "How can I upgrade my workforce for them to become generalist business people that can wield AI for the benefit of our customers and our bottom line?" "The most ambitious people are creating billions of dollars of value of their company." "There are people that are closest to the customer that feel that they have ideas that could make more revenue for the business, but they're often blocked by engineering." "Now a lot of them are bringing in Replit to work. They're building that idea, and they're making the money for their company. And then they're getting promoted, and then given more power." "I'm going to build a team of vibe coders that are going to go around the company and find all the inefficiencies and go solve them." "So we have a new role of this generalist automator."

Marc Andreessen and Amjad Masad argue that “human-level AI” may already be here, because humans rarely generalize. In AI, transfer learning means applying knowledge across domains. Most people can’t. Even Einstein couldn’t transfer physics into politics. Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 Amjad Masad

Amjad Masad, CEO of Replit, on why founders have to understand storytelling: "I think Replit would have probably died if I wasn't telling a story that is larger than the company itself." "If you're trying to meme a dream into reality, I think you have to play that game." "I had terrible stage fright. I went and took improv classes in New York, then took a storytelling class. I'm a big fan of exposure therapy. Anything you're afraid of, just go do more of it until you're desensitized." Amjad Masad Erik Torenberg

Amjad Masad and Adam D'Angelo debate whether the current LLM paradigm will get us to AGI: Amjad: “I don't think we're going to get to the next level of human civilization until we crack the true nature of intelligence.” Adam: “Nothing seems fundamentally so hard that it couldn't be solved by the smartest people in the world working incredibly hard for the next five years on it.” Amjad: “But basic research is different... Thomas Kuhn, this philosopher of science, talks a lot about how these research programs end up becoming like a bubble and sucking all the attention and ideas.” Adam: “ This is maybe our disagreement. I think the current paradigm is pretty good. And I think we're nowhere near the sort of diminishing returns of continuing to push on it... I would just bet that you can keep doing different innovations within the paradigm to get there.” Amjad Masad Adam D'Angelo

Amjad Masad and Marc Andreessen on AI agents, AGI, Creativity, and Reasoning Agents are getting better, fast. Replit Agent v1 could do only 2 minutes of coherent work. v2 could do 20 minutes.

"If you're in tech, run in one of these directions." In this clip, Amjad Masad (CEO Replit ⠕) shares two paths to future-proof your career in the AI era: 1. Get as close to the metal as possible (e.g., NASA won't use GPT-Javascript to run rockets) OR 2. Become a generalist who can go from idea to end product with AI end to end. Amjad and I had a great chat covering: • Why now's the best time to learn to code • A live demo of building a nutrition tracker app • The rise of personal apps and the future of work Some quotes from Amjad: "The return on learning to code doubles every 6 months. AI automates many of the boring parts. What's left is you and your creativity — the most exciting part of coding." "The ultimate test for an AI coding agent is if you can make an app faster than you can Google for it. I think we've done it." "I’ll be honest with you. I think roadmaps are dead. Here's why..." 📌 Watch now:
