is the best part here imo, if you don't have time to watch all 48 mins.
Exactly how my digital life has evolved in the last ~ 6 months. Worth a listen.
Supabase has become one of the default backends for the AI coding era. The open source Postgres platform now has 13 million users, spins up more than a million databases every week, and roughly 70% of its new activity is coming from agents.
As coding shifts from developers writing software by hand to agents building on their behalf, Supabase has been rebuilding itself around that new user.
Supabase co-founder and CEO Paul Copplestone joins Garry, Harj, and Jared on the Lightcone to talk about what happens when everyone can become a builder. They dive into why personal software may become as common as personal documents, how to design products that agents actually want to use, and why knowing what to build may matter more than knowing how to build it.
