Turning Agent Chaos into a Command Center with Pedram Amini

Text threads made AI feel personal, then agents made it productive, and suddenly “success” turns into chaos you can’t even track.

In this episode, Ron sits down with Pedram Amini, creator of Maestro, to show what agent work looks like when you stop babysitting and start orchestrating. Pedram lays out why context windows are the limiter, why harnessing beats model-chasing right now, and how Auto Run executes task-docs with fresh context every iteration so agents can run for hours (or days) without melting down.
