Everything is changing. Adam is joined by his good friend Beyang Liu from Sourcegraph — this time, talking about Amp (ampcode.com). Amp is one of the many, and one of Adam’s favorite agentic coding tools to use. What makes it different is how they’ve engineered to it to maximize what’s possible with today’s frontier models. Autonomous reasoning, access to the oracle, comprehensive code editing, and complex task execution. That’s nearly verbatim from their homepage, but it’s also exactly what Adam has experienced. They talk through all things agents, how Adam might have been holding Amp wrong, and they even talked through Adam’s idea called “Agent Flow”. If you’re babysitting agents, this episode is for you.
