How AI Coding Agents Will Change Your Job
About this episode
Coding agents are no longer a distant idea—they're already starting to reshape how we work.
YC's Tom Blomfield and David Lieb discuss how AI coding tools are transforming software development, why small, high-agency teams will be able to do what once took armies of engineers, and why there's never been a better time to start something new.
They explore the bigger picture too: a future where there's abundance, knowledge work becomes more accessible, and founders have more leverage than ever before.
If you're thinking about building, there's no better moment than right now.
