Lou Bichard on Agent Swarms and the Missing Primitive

General News

Summary

Lou Bichard, Field CTO at Ona, presented "The Missing Primitive for Agent Swarms" at AI Engineer Europe and examined challenges in building software factories powered by AI agents. He argued teams need stronger coordination primitives to manage complex agent interactions and workflows across the software development lifecycle. Bichard framed software factories as a push to incrementally remove humans from routine SDLC tasks so work can proceed autonomously when people are not directly engaged. He emphasized that firms must focus on orchestrating multiple coding agents to realize this vision.
