Brief

Edsuh argues that the moment code becomes truly agentic is the early warning for a new agentic era, noting improvements arrive as sudden, step‑function switches. He cites Elad Gil’s May 2026 claim that the past six months have produced tools enabling recursive self‑improvement of models and agents, signaling an early, exponential lift‑off largely unnoticed outside tech.

Key details

edsuh quotes Elad Gil saying the events of the last six months (around May 2026) are among the most important in human history and that tools now increasingly exist for recursive self‑improvement of models and agents.

Both tweets imply we are in the very early phase of exponential ‘lift‑off’ for agentic systems, with these developments largely unnoticed outside the tech community.

💯 coding becoming truly agentic is the canary in the coal mine for the agentic era. It’s hard for most to grasp because the improvements are step functions, not linear.

It feels more like a switch turning on. Everything suddenly works, seemingly out of nowhere

The events of the last 6 months in technology are arguable amongst the most important in human history

The tools now increasingly exist for recursive self improvement of models & agents

We are likely in very early lift off & exponential

Largely unnoticed outside of tech
