The premise
An agent that takes 8 seconds to boot will lose users no matter how smart it is.
What AI does well here
- Hydrate tool registries and embeddings on instance boot
- Pre-warm prompt caches with system prompts
What AI cannot do
- Predict which user will arrive next
- Eliminate cold-start entirely on serverless
