The chief executive of the cloud-based content management platform Box believes that humans will take a backseat in software use.
In a new CNBC interview, Box CEO Aaron Levie believes that software firms should now focus on designing their platforms for AI agents.
According to Levie, the incoming massive shift to software infrastructure is critical as investors begin to ask questions about the future of the sector.
“I think things are settling a little bit where people can open up and say, ‘OK, what parts of the stack are disrupted in different ways? What use cases are agents going to fully be able to subsume?’
The position that we’ve had from the beginning is actually agents are going to be the biggest users of software in the future. That doesn’t mean they’re going to use all software. So you have to figure out what software actually is going to be kind of core to kind of agentic use cases versus which ones won’t.”
Levie’s position mirrors Jensen Huang’s view that the market has gotten it wrong about software. According to the Nvidia CEO, AI agents are intelligent enough to use software as a tool on behalf of people to boost productivity.
Huang said software use will likely increase instead of decrease as people deploy AI agents into the wild.
