Podcasts about building software

In this technical deep-dive episode, Generation AI hosts Ardis Kadiu and Dr. JC Bonilla unpack Andre Karpathy's groundbreaking keynote on "Software 3.0" - the third revolution in how we tell computers what to do. They explore how we've moved from writing explicit code (Software 1.0) through neural networks (Software 2.0) to programming in plain English with LLMs (Software 3.0). The discussion reveals why LLMs represent a new computing paradigm comparable to the shift from mainframes to personal computers, and why Karpathy believes we're still in the "1960s era" of this revolution. Most importantly, they examine the massive opportunities this creates - from rebuilding infrastructure to creating agent-first applications - and why every software company needs to adapt or risk disruption. Whether you're a developer, entrepreneur, or education professional, this episode provides essential insights into the decade-long transformation ahead.Introduction and Context Setting (00:00:07)Decision to do a "geeky episode" after last week's personal discussionIntroduction to Andre Karpathy's Y Combinator keynote "Software is Evolving Again"Karpathy's background: Tesla self-driving, OpenAI co-founderSetting up the framework for understanding software evolutionSoftware 1.0: The Era of Explicit Instructions (00:03:55)Timeline: 1950s to 2010sProgramming with explicit instructions in languages like Python, C, COBOLDeterministic and predictable behaviorExample: Writing functions to classify spam emails with specific keywordsHow traditional developers were trained in this paradigmSoftware 2.0: Neural Networks as Programs (00:04:59)Timeline: 2010s to 2020sPrograms written as neural network weights instead of codeHumans become data curators rather than code writersTraining as the new form of "compiling" programsExample: Training neural networks on billions of emails for spam detectionThe shift from deterministic to probabilistic programmingSoftware 3.0: Natural Language Programming (00:07:00)Timeline: 2020s onwardProgramming in English through promptingLLMs as programmable computersEveryone becomes a programmerExample: Simply asking an LLM to "classify this email as spam or not"The democratization of programmingLLMs as the New Operating System (00:10:26)Three perspectives: utilities, fabrication plants, and operating systemsLLMs as utilities: like electricity, metered access, high reliabilityLLMs as fabs: enormous capital requirements, deep technical secretsLLMs as OS: new computing platform with CPU (LLM) and RAM (context window)Comparison to 1960s mainframe era - centralized, expensive computingThe Missing GUI for Intelligence (00:15:35)Current state: still in the "terminal phase" of AI computingNo graphical user interface for intelligence yetDiscussion on whether we'll skip to voice or need visual interfacesImportance of visual bandwidth for human information processingThe need for discoverability in interfacesDigital Spirits and AI Limitations (00:20:58)Karpathy's concept of LLMs as "people spirits"Superhuman abilities: perfect memory, instant processingCritical limitations: hallucinations, no long-term memoryThe "50 First Dates" problem - digital amnesiaJagged intelligence: superhuman at some tasks, terrible at othersExample: LLMs struggling with simple number comparisons (9.11 vs 9.9)Building Software 3.0 Applications (00:24:01)Four key features: context management, multi-LLM orchestration, application-specific GUIs, autonomy sliderThe cursor model as an exampleManaging complexity while making it simple for usersThe importance of the autonomy slider for user controlAI Agents and the Decade-Long Transition (00:27:42)"Agents are overrated" -

What happens when four decades of hands-on engineering experience meet today's fast-moving AI and open-source ecosystem? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Paula Paul, Founder and Distinguished Engineer at Greyshore, to explore that intersection. Paula began her tech career in the early 1980s writing code for IBM mainframes and has since become a trusted voice in enterprise modernization, cloud adoption, and open-source governance. Today, she advises organizations on how to build with confidence in an era defined by complex software supply chains, generative AI, and evolving SaaS models. We recorded this conversation during a time when many organizations are feeling the pressure to adopt AI and modernize legacy systems, but struggle with where to begin. Paula offers grounded insights on how to break down replatforming into value-driven streams and why a “big bang” transformation approach is often more risk than reward. She also talks about the critical role of open source in business today—not just from a tooling standpoint, but in terms of responsibility, transparency, and community. Paula's perspective is refreshingly practical. She believes AI is a natural evolution of decades of computing and storage expansion but urges companies to start with targeted experiments and thoughtful team collaboration. She also shares her experiences as a woman in tech since the 1980s, reflecting on what's changed and what hasn't and how leadership dynamics continue to shape opportunities for women in the industry. Beyond the code, Paula draws a fascinating parallel between music and technology. As a board member of the Brookline Music School and an oboe and English horn student, she explores how musical thinking can enhance software development's rhythm, structure, and leadership. If you're navigating modernization, curious about AI's role in development, or wondering how to make open source work for your organization—technically and strategically—this episode has something for you. How are you balancing technical ambition with long-term value? Let's continue the conversation.

Simone Sloan, Executive strategist, Founder of Your Choice Coach, hosts a discussion with Paul Jackson, Founder and CEO of Method. Paul is a two-time entrepreneur who believes in building software for small businesses that work just like they do. He describes himself as having optimism, grit, and pessimism all at the same time. Through his journey in business, he has created an automation tool for QuickBooks and Xero users that allows small businesses to make their own custom apps to automate any of their business processes. Paul shares the challenges he experiences introducing his product to companies or transitioning them from one CRM to another.  Method helps small businesses that have grown to this point by providing a CRM with industry-specific templates that can be customized to fit their needs, allowing them to automate processes that don't require critical thinking, are often repeated, and take up a lot of time. Method has about 100 employees and works in a hybrid company environment.  Paul believes in the value of both face-to-face and flexible working. To ensure their distributed teams are inclusive, they focus on automating key processes and slowly easing employees into automation to relieve pressure on the business. They understand the importance of having different personalities on teams. They focus on building grit and navigating those different personalities to help them achieve their goals.   Resources Mentioned: Simone Sloan: Website | LinkedIn | Twitter | Facebook | YouTube @methodCRM @PaulAlexJackson

Dr. Vega Shah was was like a gold miner during her undergraduate and graduate school studies, except instead of panning for gold, she was searching the metagenomes of ocean samples for new life and new metabolic functions. What she found was a new species of ocean bacteria, but she also realized that the software tools she relied on and the databases she used to answer her research questions were anything but solid. After grad school, she shifted her career to building software for biologists at Dotmatics, integrating tools such as Prism into electronic lab notebooks. Today she's a program manager at Benchling working to integrate new functions and communicate these resources to scientists everywhere. It's a thoughtful conversation you won't want to miss.

Michael Johnson is the CEO of Metrc, a company that makes supply chain software for the cannabis industry.

Today we discuss the cannabis industry boom and maturation of the “green rush” as what was once an emerging field becomes more commonplace. Metrc has over 250,000 users for their “track and trace” software program, and they're trying to bring safety and oversight to the wild west of the cannabis space.  ➡️ https://www.metrc.com/ ➡️ Highlights: https://rosspalmer.com/michael-johnson  ➡️ Follow me on Instagram: @therosspalmer  ➡️ Subscribe on YouTube: @therosspalmer

(0:00:00) - Non-Technical Course Creator (13 Minutes) This week's episode features Alyssa Marshall, the cofounder of Owwlish, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) that helps non-technical creators embed online courses into their websites without the help of a developer. Alyssa shares the story of how she went from being a dentist to becoming an entrepreneur. She explains that while studying dentistry; she was exposed to Tim Ferriss' audiobook, which opened her eyes to the world of entrepreneurship and started her dreaming of alternative paths for her future. Alisa and her husband then brainstormed ways to make the process of managing an online course easier for her, which led to the creation of Owwlish. (0:12:40) - Building Software for Nontechnical People (7 Minutes) Owwlish, a learning management platform, was created to give nontechnical people an easier way to create and set up online courses without the need for a developer. It allows users to embed courses into their website with a snippet of code, without having to manage a second website experience for their course learners. Amish is the only platform that integrates with all nontechnical platforms, like Wix, Squarespace and Webflow, to help people to get their courses online without a lot of technical hassle. (0:19:36) - Seamless Software Experiences (6 Minutes) This conversation discusses the amount of development effort and thought that goes into creating software, and how that's often taken for granted. The speaker brings in their background as a former dentist to explain how this experience has influenced their approach to developing an educational platform - namely, their awareness of the user experience and their understanding of the needs of course creators. They also discuss how the 'reality distortion field' of Steve Jobs enabled him to create the Apple products we know and love. (0:25:18) - Creating an Online Course (11 Minutes) This conversation covers two main topics: attention to detail and working with people. Attention to detail is essential in dentistry, as a millimetre can be the difference between successful treatment and failure. The speaker also talks about perfectionism and how to shift it to 80% good enough. Working with people involves reading between the lines to understand their hopes, dreams, needs, and fears. Finally, advice is given to those wanting to create an online course but have limited technical knowledge: start simple, give yourself a tight deadline and don't be afraid to make mistakes.

When a recruiter from Till first reached out to Johnny Ray Austin, he didn't hesitate: “The answer was no. Flat out”. But it turns out Johnny Ray couldn't have been more wrong about the startup, and what he'd interpreted as a potentially exploitative loan scheme is actually a life-changing new platform that helps renters stay in their homes. On this episode of Crafted, Till's Chief Technology Officer, Johnny Ray Austin talks about his initial hesitation and what motivated him to jump on board. You'll also hear how Till iterated on its lending product to give renters confidence that Till would in fact pay their rent for them after offering them a line of credit, as well as where Till is similar to and different from buy-now-pay-later services like Affirm, Klarna, and Afterpay.
