Interesting idea! Question:

> It is highly unlikely that an AI agent startup becomes wealthy by creating the best harness for a particular use case.

If it's not the harness, what do you think is the thing that will differentiate AI agent startups? Is it mainly data, or something else?

The most valuable pieces of information an AI agent startup can gather is access to their customer's proprietary data and knowledge of their customers preferences (memory + self-learning).

Even as the cost of writing code goes to zero, those two pieces of information are non-commodities.
