AI Agents and the Fight for Customer Data

I think coding agents are going to write tons of DBT models.

The a16z Show
AI Agents and the Fight for Customer Data

Yeah, and it's going to be a great beneficiary.

And coding agents are great for CEOs who want to write code on the side because they work sort of asynchronously.

The a16z Show
AI Agents and the Fight for Customer Data

So you can have a lot of things spinning in the background.

The a16z Show
AI Agents and the Fight for Customer Data

I have a lot of projects going right now.

The a16z Show

Can you name them?

The a16z Show
AI Agents and the Fight for Customer Data

I mean... I mean, I have things I am just doing as hobbies, like the system for managing my tennis team.

The a16z Show
