Instacart's CTO says AI made the company stop worrying about tech debt
Instacart is posing the provocative question: What if most of the work your engineers do today should, in fact, be done by machines?At VB Transform 2026, CTO Anirban Kundu argued that dev teams continue to waste their time on draining, repetitive, high-volume work; this should be absorbed by AI agents so that humans can focus on problems that require judgment, intent, and exception handling.
