An AI agent is only as good as the machine it runs on. In this episode from HumanX 2026, Michael Grinich (CEO & Founder of WorkOS) sits down with Ivan Burazin, CEO and Co-Founder of Daytona, to discuss the critical infrastructure behind the AI revolution.
Ivan introduces the concept of "Composable Computers"—the digital sandboxes that give AI agents the environment they need to actually execute code, not just write it. They discuss the "Human Emulator" concept, the unique infrastructure challenges of non-stop agentic workloads, and why we’re rapidly moving toward a world where 90% of software interactions are driven by machines, not humans.
Key Topics Covered:
• Why every AI agent needs its own dedicated computer/sandbox.
• The "Human Emulator": Giving AI its own phone number, email, and 2FA capabilities.
• How agentic workloads break traditional "follow the sun" infrastructure models.
• Daytona’s explosive growth: From warehouse pizza meetups to the Chase Center.
