Original Reddit post

OpenAI’s Astra launch made me think about where the durable value in AI will sit. If models can increasingly operate browsers, write code, and use professional software, do independent agent platforms become less important? Or do they become more important because businesses still need a separate layer for: Context and memory Permissions and approvals Cross-tool workflows Auditability Team collaboration Organizational rules Maybe the model becomes the intelligence layer, while the product becomes the operating environment around it. Where do you think the long-term value will sit as models become capable of performing more end-to-end work? Disclosure: I’m building Vestra, an AI-native office, so I’m biased toward the platform-layer perspective. I’m asking this as a genuine strategic question, not as a product pitch. submitted by /u/NoSpecific64
