Mark Ericksen, creator of the Elixir LangChain framework, joins the Elixir Wizards to talk about LLM integration in Elixir apps. He explains how LangChain abstracts away the quirks of different AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini) so you can work with any LLM in one more consistent API. We dig into core features like conversation chaining, tool execution, automatic retries, and production-grade fallback strategies. Mark shares his experiences maintaining LangChain in a fast-moving AI world: how it shields developers from API drift, manages token budgets, and handles rate limits and outages. He also reveals testing tactics for non-deterministic AI outputs, configuration tips for custom authentication, and the highlights of the new v0.4 release, including “content parts” support for thinking-style models. Key topics discussed in this episode: • Abstracting LLM APIs behind a unified Elixir interface • Building and managing conversation chains across multiple models • Exposing application functionality to LLMs through tool integrations • Automatic retries and fallback chains for production resilience • Supporting a variety of LLM providers • Tracking and optimizing token usage for cost control • Configuring API keys, authentication, and provider-specific settings • Handling rate limits and service outages with degradation • Processing multimodal inputs (text, images) in Langchain workflows • Extracting structured data from unstructured LLM responses • Leveraging “content parts” in v0.4 for advanced thinking-model support • Debugging LLM interactions using verbose logging and telemetry • Kickstarting experiments in LiveBook notebooks and demos • Comparing Elixir LangChain to the original Python implementation • Crafting human-in-the-loop workflows for interactive AI features • Integrating Langchain with the Ash framework for chat-driven interfaces • Contributing to open-source LLM adapters and staying ahead of API changes • Building fallback chains (e.g., OpenAI → Azure) for seamless continuity • Embedding business logic decisions directly into AI-powered tools • Summarization techniques for token efficiency in ongoing conversations • Batch processing tactics to leverage lower-cost API rate tiers • Real-world lessons on maintaining uptime amid LLM service disruptions Links mentioned: https://rubyonrails.org/ https://fly.io/ https://zionnationalpark.com/ https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/ https://github.com/brainlid/langchain https://openai.com/ https://claude.ai/ https://gemini.google.com/ https://www.anthropic.com/ Vertex AI Studio https://cloud.google.com/generative-ai-studio https://www.perplexity.ai/ https://azure.microsoft.com/ https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.html https://oban.pro/ Chris McCord's ElixirConf EU 2025 Talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojL_VHc4gLk Getting started: https://hexdocs.pm/langchain/gettingstarted.html https://ash-hq.org/ https://hex.pm/packages/langchain https://hexdocs.pm/igniter/readme.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM9iQlQSFg @brainlid on Twitter and BlueSky Special Guest: Mark Ericksen.

The future of AI needs a new internet. Coinbase is laying the foundation. In this episode of The Index, host Alex Kehaya talks with Nemil Dalal, Head of Coinbase's Developer Program, about how Coinbase is building crypto-native infrastructure to power the next generation of applications, starting with autonomous AI agents.Nemil shares his background in crypto, from meeting Brian Armstrong at Y Combinator to helping scale USDC from $10 million to $1 billion in market cap. Today, he's focused on making blockchain development more accessible by reducing friction around payments, APIs, and onboarding.A key part of that effort is X402—Coinbase's implementation of the long-dormant HTTP 402 "Payment Required" status code. X402 allows AI agents and applications to autonomously pay for API access using cryptocurrency, without the need for API keys, credit cards, or manual account setup.We break down how X402 works under the hood:API requests return a 402 response when payment is requiredAgents can immediately respond with a signed crypto transaction to unlock accessJust one line of JavaScript is needed to enable itThis simple standard opens the door to a wide range of use cases—from AI agents accessing paid services to developers integrating crypto-powered paywalls with minimal overhead.If you're building in Web3, working with AI, or developing APIs, this episode offers a practical look at how Coinbase is creating tools that make decentralized development more seamless and scalable.

As AI models grow larger and more powerful, they promise incredible capabilities — but at what cost? Karen Hao is an AI journalist and her new book, Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI, is a New York Times bestseller. We discuss whether the largest AI models are worth their hefty footprint: They consume massive amounts of electricity and water and Karen argues that smaller models better balance cost vs. benefit. Karen, who has reported for The Atlantic, MIT Technology Review, and the Wall Street Journal, will also provide a view of AI from outside — far outside — Silicon Valley. She's reported on AI from across the Global South and says many there feel that AI is a new form of colonialism.We'll hear about the fight over data centers in Chile, how New Zealand's Maori people are using AI to preserve their indigenous language, and why it's a problem that AI can speak any language, but can only really be policed in a few.(Our interview was first broadcast in October, while Karen was still writing the book, so we do not discuss her deeply sourced reporting from inside OpenAI.)—CRAFTED. is produced by Modern Product Minds, where CRAFTED. host Dan Blumberg and team can help you take a new product from zero to one... and beyond.

Kevin Smith is building a totally new kind of podcast app. Snipd is an AI-native podcast app and building it required a few mindset shifts. First, what even is a podcast? The way Kevin sees it, podcasts are knowledge. So where most podcast players are, as Kevin calls them, "repurposed music players", Snipd is designed to help you learn. As people listen to episodes, they, or an AI, can save “snips” or interesting moments that they want to remember or share. And the app will also help you review what you've heard, so it reinforces what you've learned.A second mindset shift is how Kevin had to retrain his engineering brain to build with generative AI. He no longer thinks in if-then-else statements. Rather, he asks himself: How would an intern do it? And not just one intern, but infinite interns…I learned a ton from the way Kevin thinks and builds, and you will too. Plus, we discuss the future of podcasting, which looks pretty… weird. You'll talk back to your podcasts, hosts may be synthetic, and shows may not even be designed (at least initially) for human ears.Chapters:(01:30) - Introducing Snipd (03:50) - What led Kevin to found Snipd (06:10) - How AI changes what's possible with podcasts (08:45) - Building with Gen AI requires a mindset shift (11:40) - How would an intern solve this?

More info: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/overview The AI coding wars have now split across four battlegrounds: 1. AI IDEs: with two leading startups in Windsurf ($3B acq. by OpenAI) and Cursor ($9B valuation) and a sea of competition behind them (like Cline, Github Copilot, etc). 2. Vibe coding platforms: Bolt.new, Lovable, v0, etc. all experiencing fast growth and getting to the tens of millions of revenue in months. 3. The teammate agents: Devin, Cosine, etc. Simply give them a task, and they will get back to you with a full PR (with mixed results) 4. The cli-based agents: after Aider's initial success, we are now seeing many other alternatives including two from the main labs: OpenAI Codex and Claude Code. The main draw is that 1) they are composable 2) they are pay as you go based on tokens used. Since we covered all three of the first categories, today's guests are Boris and Cat, the lead engineer and PM for Claude Code. If you only take one thing away from this episode, it's this piece from Boris: Claude Code is not a product as much as it's a Unix utility. This fits very well with Anthropic's product principle: “do the simple thing first.” Whether it's the memory implementation (a markdown file that gets auto-loaded) or the approach to prompt summarization (just ask Claude to summarize), they always pick the smallest building blocks that are useful, understandable, and extensible. Even major features like planning (“/think”) and memory (#tags in markdown) fit the same idea of having text I/O as the core interface. This is very similar to the original UNIX design philosophy: Claude Code is also the most direct way to consume Sonnet for coding, rather than going through all the hidden prompting and optimization than the other products do. You will feel that right away, as the average spend per user is $6/day on Claude Code compared to $20/mo for Cursor, for example. Apparently, there are some engineers inside of Anthropic that have spent >$1,000 in one day! If you're building AI developer tools, there's also a lot of alpha on how to design a cli tool, interactive vs non-interactive modes, and how to balance feature creation. Enjoy!

In this interview, our Moore's Lobby host, Daniel Bogdanoff, chats with Rodger Richey, Vice President of Development Tools and Academic Programs at Microchip Technology. Rodger shares how his passion for engineering began with childhood curiosity, dismantling and repairing devices like a microwave. Those early hands-on experiences laid the foundation for his electrical engineering career, which started with designing underwater electronics for the U.S. Navy. Rodger discusses the evolution of development tools and the growing complexity of embedded systems over his 30-year tenure at Microchip. He emphasizes the importance of creating accessible and user-friendly tools, such as IDEs and development boards, to help developers tackle increasingly sophisticated projects. The integration of AI into development workflows is a major milestone, enabling enhanced productivity and better debugging. Rodger also highlights his involvement in academia, spearheading initiatives like virtual internships and hands-on learning programs to better prepare students for industry roles. By providing real-world tools and fostering collaboration, these programs aim to bridge the gap between theoretical education and practical application. Rodger attributes his longevity at Microchip to its strong values, collaborative culture, and dedication to innovation, which have remained consistent even as the company has grown significantly.

In this episode, I, Stewart Alsop III, sat down with AJ Beckner to walk through how non-technical founders can build a deeper understanding of their codebase using AI tools like Cursor and Claude. We explored the reality of navigating an IDE as a beginner, demystified Git and GitHub version control, and walked through practical ways to clone a repo, open it safely in Cursor, and start asking questions about your app's structure and functionality without breaking anything. AJ shared his curiosity about finding specific text in his app and how to track that down across branches. We also looked at using AI-powered tools for tasks like dependency analysis and visualizing app architecture, with a focus on empowering non-devs to gain confidence and clarity in their product's code. You can connect with AJ through Twitter at @thisistheaj.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 – Stewart introduces Cursor as a fork of Visual Studio Code and explains the concept of an IDE to AJ, who has zero prior experience. They talk about the complexity of coding and the importance of developer curiosity.05:00 – They walk through cloning a GitHub repository using the git clone command. Stewart highlights that AJ won't break anything and introduces the idea of a local playground for exploration.10:00 – Stewart explains Git vs GitHub, the purpose of version control, and how to use the terminal for navigation. They begin setting up the project in Cursor using the terminal rather than GUI options.15:00 – They realize only a README was cloned, leading to a discussion about branches—specifically the difference between main and development branches—and how to clone the right one.20:00 – Using git fetch, they get access to the development branch. Stewart explains how to disconnect from Git safely to avoid pushing changes.25:00 – AJ and Stewart begin exploring Cursor's AI features, including the chat interface. Stewart encourages AJ to start asking natural-language questions about the app structure.30:00 – Stewart demonstrates how to ask for a dependency analysis and create mermaid diagrams for visualizing how app modules are connected.35:00 – They begin identifying specific UI components, including finding and editing the home screen title. AJ uploads a screenshot to use as reference in Cursor.40:00 – They successfully trace the UI text to an index.tsx file and discuss the layout's dependency structure. AJ learns how to use search and command-F effectively.45:00 – They begin troubleshooting issues with Claude's GitHub integration, exploring Claude MCP servers and configuration files to fix broken tools.50:00 – Stewart guides AJ through using npm to install missing packages, explains what Node Package Manager is, and reflects on the interconnected nature of modern development.55:00 – Final troubleshooting steps and next steps. Stewart suggests bringing in Phil for deeper debugging. AJ reflects on how empowered he now feels navigating the codebase.Key InsightsYou don't need to be a developer to understand your app's codebase: AJ Beckner starts the session with zero familiarity with IDEs, but through Stewart's guidance, he begins navigating Cursor and GitHub confidently. The key idea is that non-technical founders can develop real intuition about their code—enough to communicate better with developers, find what they need, and build trust with the systems behind their product.Cursor makes AI-native development accessible to beginners: One of the biggest unlocks in this episode is seeing how Cursor, a VS Code fork with AI baked in, can answer questions about your codebase in plain English. By cloning the GitHub repo and indexing it, AJ is able to ask, “Where do I change this text in the app?” and get direct, actionable guidance. Stewart points out that this shifts the role of a founder from passively waiting on answers to actively exploring and editing.Version control doesn't have to be scary—with the right framing: Git and GitHub come across as overwhelming to many non-engineers, but Stewart breaks it down simply: Git is the local system that helps keep changes organized and non-destructive, and GitHub is the cloud-based sharing tool layered on top. Together, they allow safe experimentation, like cloning a development branch and disconnecting it from the main repo to create a playground environment.Branching strategies reflect how work gets done behind the scenes: The episode includes a moment of discovery: AJ cloned the main branch and only got a README. Stewart explains that the real work often lives in a “development” branch, while “main” is kept stable for production. Understanding this distinction helps AJ (and listeners) know where to look when trying to understand how features are actually being built and tested.Command line basics give you superpowers: Rather than relying solely on visual tools, Stewart introduces AJ to the terminal—explaining simple commands like cd, git clone, and git fetch—and emphasizes that the terminal has been the backbone of developer work for decades. It's empowering to learn that you can use just a few lines of text to download and explore an entire app.Modern coding is less about code and more about managing complexity: A recurring theme in the conversation is the sheer number of dependencies, frameworks, and configuration files that make up any modern app. Stewart compares this to a reflection of modern life—interconnected and layered. Understanding this complexity (rather than being defeated by it) becomes a mindset that AJ embraces as part of becoming technically fluent.AI will keep lowering the bar to entry, but learning fundamentals still matters: Stewart shares how internal OpenAI coding models went from being some of the worst performers two years ago to now ranking among the top 50 in the world. While this progress promises an easier future for non-devs, Stewart emphasizes the value of understanding what's happening under the hood.

What if we could deliver supplies anywhere, no roads or runways needed?Elroy Air has built a really big drone. One that can carry 300 pounds of stuff 300 miles or more. And it takes off like a helicopter, but flies like a plane, meaning it can get in and out of all sorts of hard to reach places. In this episode, we sit down with David Merrill, co-founder, executive chairman, and former CEO of Elroy Air, to explore how these hybrid-electric, vertical takeoff and landing aircraft are set to transform express delivery, humanitarian aid, and military logistics.David shares the lean prototyping and rapid iteration strategies that helped bring Elroy Air's vision to life, the biggest technical challenges they've tackled, and what the future of autonomous aerial logistics could look like. Plus, we dive into the Jetsons-inspired origins of Elroy Air and whether flying taxis are still on the horizon.What You'll Learn in This Episode:

Software is eating the world, right? We've all heard this phrase by now, but inventor and investor Pablos Holman has something important to add: “The world can't eat software.”That's why Pablos focuses on “deep tech”, i.e. how to invent new solutions to real world problems like energy, water, waste, construction, and sanitation. Pablos says we're still mostly using version 1.0 technology for these fundamental systems, but recent advances, including AI and the ability to prototype and test in software, are enabling incredible innovation in hardware.Pablos has worked with Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and more. He's kind of a mad scientist and in this episode we'll discuss things that sound like science fiction, but that Pablos says are coming soon, such as solar panels in outer space that can beam clean energy down to earth, autonomous cargo ships blown by the wind across the ocean, and tiny nuclear reactors buried a mile underground that power the world above.At Deep Future, Pablos is on a mission to solve the world's biggest problems, and he's hoping more people will make the jump that he did from software to hardware and into deep tech, because, as he says, “ all the people who've been building software their entire career, those are the ones who are going to save the world.”—More on Pablos: Deep Future: https://deepfuture.tech/Deep Future podcast: https://deepfuture.tech/podcast-index/ —Support CRAFTED.:Sign up for the CRAFTED. newsletter: https://www.crafted.fmSubscribe to CRAFTED. on your favorite podcast platformShare this episode with a friend or colleague!

In the ever-evolving world of software development, the tools you use can either streamline your workflow or slow you down. Mastering the right developer tools isn't just about efficiency—it's about transforming how you approach challenges and fostering habits that drive smarter, more effective development. The Building Better Developers podcast dives deep into this topic, exploring how thoughtful tool selection and intentional habits can lead to meaningful growth and productivity. Let's explore how developer tools can be a catalyst for transformation in your work. Why Developer Tools Matter The podcast emphasizes that developer tools are not just about improving efficiency—they shape how we think and solve problems. Tools like integrated development environments (IDEs), task management software, and even simple utilities help bridge the gap between idea and execution. Choose tools that enhance, not complicate. When evaluating tools, prioritize simplicity and integration over complexity. As Rob Broadhead explains, “Avoid tools that add work. The app should improve your life, not make it harder.” For instance, while tools like QuickBooks Desktop streamline accounting, their online counterparts may introduce unnecessary complexity. Evaluating Developer Tools: A Framework The podcast introduces a structured approach to evaluating tools. Here's a summarized framework: Define Your Needs: Identify the problems the tool should solve. Is it for task tracking, bug fixing, or customer relationship management? Research: Use online comparisons or customer reviews. Google terms like “alternatives to [tool]” or “tools like [tool name]” to discover your options. Test the Tools: Take advantage of free trials or demos to assess usability and functionality. Measure ROI: Evaluate the time and effort saved versus the cost of the tool. By taking this methodical approach, you avoid the common trap of jumping into tools without a clear purpose. Common Pitfalls with Developer Tools Michael Meloche warns against several pitfalls, including: Over-complicating workflows: Switching between multiple tools can lead to inefficiency. Find one that meets most of your needs and stick with it. Time sinks: Developers often spend hours experimenting with tools that don't provide meaningful value. Set clear time limits for evaluating new software. Redundancy: Avoid using multiple tools for the same task. For example, don't use three bug trackers when one robust option like Jira will suffice. Remember, the goal isn't to try every tool but to find those that integrate seamlessly into your existing processes. Top Developer Tools Mentioned The podcast lists several essential categories of tools every developer should explore: Task Management: Tools like Jira, Asana, and Monday.com streamline task organization and collaboration. Version Control: Git remains the gold standard, with platforms like GitHub and GitLab offering enhanced collaboration features. Time Tracking: Tools like Toggl help track productivity and billable hours effectively. Communication: Slack and Microsoft Teams are ideal for keeping remote teams connected. The Seasonal Approach to Tool Mastery Rob proposes a seasonal approach to tool evaluation. Instead of randomly testing tools throughout the year, dedicate specific periods to exploring certain categories. For example, focus on marketing automation tools one season and customer relationship management tools the next. This method ensures you gain deep knowledge of tools relevant to your work without overwhelming yourself. Tips for Implementing New Tools Start Small: Test one feature at a time. For instance, if trying a new IDE, begin by configuring it for a small project. Involve the Team: Gather input from colleagues to ensure the tool works across the board. Track Impact: Use metrics to evaluate the tool's impact, like reduced project delays or improved code quality. Challenge for Developers The podcast ends with a challenge: spend seven days exploring a new category of tools. Here's how to get started: Day 1: Research tools in a specific category (e.g., bug tracking or time management). Days 2-6: Spend 10-15 minutes each day testing different tools. Day 7: Evaluate your findings and pick the one that fits best. This simple exercise sharpens your evaluation skills and helps you discover tools that genuinely improve your workflow. Final Thoughts Building better habits and mastering tools isn't about chasing every shiny new app. It's about intentional choices that align with your goals. As Rob Broadhead wisely concludes, “It's not about doing more; it's about doing what matters.” Take the time to evaluate your toolset, and you'll find yourself not just working harder but working smarter.
