20Product: Replit CEO on Why Coding Models Are Plateauing | Why the SaaS Apocalypse is Justified: Will Incumbents Be Replaced? | Why IDEs Are Dead and Do PMs Survive the Next 3-5 Years with Amjad Masad

We're approaching a certain plateau in how good coding models could get. Cost question is secondary to the performance question. When you focus on cost is when you reach a certain asymptotic plateau in the S curve. I think I think for all intents and purposes, IDAs are dead. The name of the game is just staying one, two, three, four, ten steps ahead.

This is 20 Product, the monthly show where we sit down with the best product minds to unpack the future of product, how the best product managers work, and what that looks like in a world of AI. We could not have a more relevant guest than Amjad Masad, co-founder and CEO at Replit, joining us in the hot seat. The man is reshaping what it means to be a great product manager. what it means to be a great product leader and Raplet is one of the leading vibe coding tools alongside the likes of Lovable. This was an incredible discussion with Amjad and I'm really excited for you to hear it.
