Software Factory Becomes The Product With AI Agents

Guillermo Rauch, Vercel CEO and creator of Next.js, posted that the software factory is now the product itself, with quality determined by autonomous AI agents set up to maintain it, mirroring Elon Musk's approach at Tesla. Matan Grinberg of Factory AI responded by calling his platform the machine that builds the machine. The discussion frames AI agents as the core system behind modern software development rather than the end applications alone.
