The AI development landscape has shifted dramatically, with coding agents now capable of sustained, long-horizon tasks, a change noted by Andrej Karpathy since December 2025. This has led to new products like Perplexity Computer, an orchestration-first agent system, and advancements in tools like OpenAI's GPT-5.3-Codex and GitHub Copilot CLI. However, this rapid progress has also fueled a "productivity panic" and a form of "AI psychosis" among executives and VCs, who are investing heavily in agentic workflows and tools that may not yield measurable value. AI
