In their words

The transcript segments this claim was taken from

“I, I think there's a lot of really cool stuff you can do, you know, kind of decoupling the agent and, and the harness, decoupling it from sandboxes, having agents control many sandboxes, forking sandboxes, you know, snapshotting things. Like, you know, like, running basically, like, very short-lived, may-maybe one per command, like things like that. So I, I think there's a lot of cool stuff there.”
“We've already spent a lot of time doing that, you know, around snapshots. Uh, but, but I think there's a lot of cool stuff, uh, to be, to be built there as well. You brought up snapshotting a couple times.”
