Benioff Backs Anthropic
Speaking on the All-In Podcast, Benioff said coding agents have unlocked capabilities that were previously out of reach, including faster software deployment, AI-driven outbound prospecting and the ability to implement and sell products at the same time.
“I can do things that I just could not do before. I can go faster than ever before. I can implement my software and sell it at the same time. I’ve never been able to do that before.”
Benioff was clear in his praise, saying, “These coding agents are awesome. Anthropic is awesome.”
