The New Primitives: Building AI-Native Software

In the future, every piece of software with a human-facing surface will be built from new, LLM-centric primitives. (Just like every piece of software today has networking, threads/async routines, UI on top of some flavor of Model/View/Controller abstractions, etc.) We're just starting to invent these new primitives. The list, though, will definitely include: 1. Subagents - multiple inference loops, multiple models, async tool calls 2. Very long context - memory + episodic human interactions over a long period of time, structured data input (not just output), progressive skills/context loading, graceful compaction & summarization 3. dynamic user interface generation / user interfaces driven by LLM inference 4. conversational voice input
