The first moment I specifically remember was writing a test of a new RPC protocol back in 2021. There were no agents yet, only "AI autocomplete" in the form of GitHub Copilot. I wrote the "server" half of the test, which received a name and responded with "Hello, <name>". Then I wrote the client code to send "world", and Codex suggested `if response == "Hello, world"`.

I was floored by this. How could it have known?!

We have come so far in such a short time.
