AI agents are creating more software—and that changes what a backend needs to do. Supabase co-founders Paul Copplestone and Ant Wilson join swyx to discuss running long-lived workloads alongside the database, making schemas easier for agents to understand, and designing infrastructure for a world with many more applications.
The conversation also covers Postgres reliability and scaling, Turso, open source, community-led distribution, and how Supabase uses AI internally. Recorded ahead of Supabase Select 2026.
