Tesla’s biggest problem may no longer be Chinese competitors, slowing demand for its EVs or the still-theoretical payoff from robotaxis and humanoid robots. 

It might be SpaceX.

If Elon Musk’s rocket and satellite-internet company goes public at anything close to the rumored $1.75 trillion valuation, it will not just be one of the biggest IPOs in history. It will give Tesla investors tired of waiting for the CEO’s promises to materialize something they haven’t had in a while: a potentially bigger, more exciting way to invest in the Musk myth. Certainly, SpaceX, with its reliable and steady leadership under long-time president Gwynne Shotwell, is shaping up to be a shinier proxy — with fewer close competitors or awkward quarterly questions about exactly when Tesla can take on Waymo in self-driving tech or actually deliver its C-3PO-style robot.

Two years ago, Replit CEO Amjad Masad invited Paul Graham, the legendary cofounder of the startup incubator Y Combinator, to his home office near Palo Alto, California, to give Graham a sneak peek of Replit’s new and novel product: an AI agent that could write its own code. It was the first time Graham had seen what would become known as vibe coding. “The name hadn’t even been invented,” Graham recalls. 

As the agent got to work building apps, Graham, a lifelong computer programmer, instinctively looked at the code. Masad scolded him, saying there was no need, arguing that the source code would only be an unimportant byproduct, and programming would now be done in English — a radical change for software engineers. “It was mind-bending,” Graham, one of Replit’s earliest investors, tells Forbes. “He’s bald with that beard, and I think he was actually wearing a black turtleneck. I felt like he was a Bond villain: ‘Hahaha! Don’t look at that code!’”

Now vibe coding, of course, is everywhere, and Replit is looking to take it a step further. On Wednesday, the startup announced its new agent, simply called Agent 4, which aims to deliver a new type of interface for vibe coding. Like last time, Masad demoed the new agent to Graham at his home office in early March. After the meeting, Graham gushed about the product on X. “Amjad showed me Replit's latest stuff,” he posted. “They're about to redefine vibe coding in a way that will seem obvious in retrospect. A lot of the biggest ideas have that quality.”
