The marketing was about agents. The interesting part is the compute model underneath it, and almost nobody is talking about that.</p> <p>The argument they are making is actually sound, which is rare. The cloud we have was built for the smartphone era. One app serves many users. You provision a fleet, you put it behind a load balancer, you scale horizontally, and the whole shape assumes a many-to-one relationship between users and processes. Agents break that shape. An agent is one-to-one: one user, one agent, one task, often for minutes at a stretch, holding state the whole time. That is a genuinely different compute problem, and pretending it is just &ldquo;more web traffic&rdquo; is how you end up with a bill that does not make sense.</p>
