Agentic AI workflows – from “one-person armies” to AI-native organizations – are reshaping the way products are imagined, built, tested and delivered to market.

In this July 2026 episode of the AMD podcast “Advanced Insights,” Mark Papermaster, chief technology officer and executive vice president at AMD, and Boris Cherny, creator and head of Claude Code at Anthropic, explore how agentic AI is transforming software development and the broader engineering organization.

Papermaster and Cherny discuss the evolution from autocomplete to autonomous, multiagent workflows; how engineers are becoming orchestrators of increasingly capable agents; and the value of curiosity, adaptability and the ability to generate strong ideas. The wide-ranging conversation also examines leadership and culture changes, the importance of trust and verification, and the compute required to support long-term agents.
