In this episode, we're joined by Youssef Hounat, product leader, ex-auditor, and (unexpectedly) freestyle-rap-ready builder of tools for accountants. He went from training at Ernst & Young to helping scale DataSnipper into one of the Netherlands' unicorns, and now he's building again as Head of Product at ComplianceWise. We unpack what's actually changing inside product teams: AI stops being a rewrite/search tool and becomes a teammate that takes real work off your plate. Youssef shares how the best teams reduce context switching, turn customer research into a habit, and use agentic workflows + MCPs to connect tools like email, Jira, Figma, and docs without becoming a “fleshy meat puppet” copy-pasting between 10 tabs. Here are some of the key questions we address: Why do 99% of teams still use AI wrong, and what mindset shift fixes it? How do you turn customer research into a continuous habit using transcripts + automated pipelines? What's a real example of AI helping product push back on “build this to close the deal” and finding the true request underneath? How do top teams use MCP + coding agents to move from idea → PRD → Jira tickets without leaving the terminal? What's the difference between a prototype you build to learn vs a product you build to earn — and why vibe-coded output can't go straight to production? How do you avoid reinventing the wheel and start with small weekly automations that compound? What's the real risk behind shadow AI usage and how do you get IT onside instead of blocked?
Who's going to win the Super Bowl? What about the latest season of Survivor? Or the race to be the next chair of the Federal Reserve? Who will be Portugal's next president? How many times will Elon Musk tweet in the next week? On Polymarket, and other prediction markets, you can bet on all these things and more. Are we entering a world in which everything is gambling and gambling is everything? Bloomberg's Joe Weisenthal joins the show to explain the rise of prediction markets, what's betting and what's investing, and more. Then, The Verge's Hayden Field teaches us about Model Context Protocol, a wonky bit of AI infrastructure that might be key to making AI agents work. MCP is barely a year old, and practically all of tech is ready to embrace it. Finally, Hayden helps David answer a question on the Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com!) about why every AI company seems to want you to go shopping.

Eric Bowman (CTO @ King.com, previously CTO at TomTom and VP Engineering at Zalando) returns to the alphalist podcast to unpack what “agentic engineering” really means in practice—and how to introduce it to teams without turning it into a mandate. We talk about the uncomfortable trade-offs behind “YOLO mode” tooling, why adoption should feel voluntary even when you set explicit goals (like “five AI-assisted commits” as a company-level key result), and why the real opportunity isn't just faster coding—it's building a learning system that relentlessly reduces time-to-learning and time-to-value. The conversation spans practical rollout patterns, DORA/value-stream thinking, Toyota's Andon-cord mindset applied to software, multi-agent decision support with MCP, and why the CTO role may keep converging with product as AI pushes organizations to optimize for iteration speed over output volume.

Les géants de l'intelligence artificielle préparent un protocole universel pour permettre aux IA d'interagir avec tous les services numériques sans intégration spécifique.Un langage commun pour les agents intelligentsLes intelligences artificielles peinent aujourd'hui à agir efficacement dans un monde numérique fragmenté. Chaque outil ou service utilise sa propre API, ses propres règles d'interaction. Pour qu'un agent IA exécute une tâche concrète, il doit apprendre à dialoguer avec une multitude de systèmes hétérogènes. C'est à ce problème que répond MCP, le Model Context Protocol, conçu comme un langage universel entre IA et outils numériques.Une initiative d'Anthropic, soutenue par la Linux FoundationCréé en 2024 par deux ingénieurs d'Anthropic, David Soriapara et Justin Sparsomers, MCP vient de franchir une étape décisive : son passage sous l'égide de la Linux Foundation, via une nouvelle entité baptisée Agentic AI Foundation. L'objectif est clair : faire de MCP un standard ouvert, neutre et interopérable, comme l'a été Linux pour les systèmes d'exploitation. Cette fondation assurera la gouvernance, la documentation et la diffusion du protocole.Une architecture en trois couches pour un fonctionnement transparentLe fonctionnement de MCP repose sur une structure en trois éléments : l'agent IA qui formule une demande, le serveur MCP qui traduit cette demande en actions possibles, et l'outil compatible qui exécute l'action. Chaque service numérique déclare ses fonctions, permissions et formats, tandis que l'utilisateur garde la main sur les autorisations. Le protocole agit comme une API universelle, une « grammaire » commune pour permettre aux IA de manipuler n'importe quel outil numérique.Vers une nouvelle ère d'interopérabilité pour l'IALe développement de MCP s'accélère. OpenAI l'intègre dans ChatGPT, Google déploie ses propres serveurs compatibles, et une communauté de développeurs se constitue autour du standard. MCP n'est plus un simple prototype : il amorce son industrialisation. À terme, chaque service numérique pourrait devenir plug and play pour les IA. Une révolution silencieuse, mais potentiellement majeure, dans l'architecture du web intelligent.Site officiel MCP-----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don
How do you make sense of an industry that is changing at a pace few predicted, especially with SIGNAL London still fresh in our minds and Twilio unveiling the next stage of its vision for customer engagement? That question sits at the heart of today's conversation with Peter Bell, VP of Marketing for EMEA at Twilio, who joined me to unpack what the past year has taught both companies and consumers about AI's role in shaping modern experiences. Peter begins by grounding everything in a single, striking shift. Only a year ago, AI-powered search barely registered in global traffic. Today it accounts for around a fifth of all searches. That leap signals a broader behavioral shift as consumers move instinctively toward conversational interfaces, which, in turn, leaves brands with a clear message. The clock has moved on. AI is no longer a nice-to-have. It is a direct response to how people now choose to discover, question, and buy. Our conversation turns to the gap between customer expectations and the experiences they receive. Peter discusses why brands often struggle to integrate channels, data, and AI coherently. He explains how first party data has become the anchor for any serious AI strategy, why generic public models cannot solve brand-specific tasks, and why the most successful teams start with simple, tightly scoped problems. A password reset may not sound glamorous, yet it is the kind of focused use case that teaches teams how to govern data, automate safely, and build confidence in the process. We also spend time on branded calling, RCS, and the evolution of voice. Peter breaks down what modern messaging now looks like and why trust sits at the center of every interaction. His explanation of Conversational Relay shows why natural voice exchanges finally feel within reach after years of frustration with rigid IVR systems. The thread running through all of this is clear. Consumers want speed and clarity, but they want reassurance too, and brands need to honor both sides of that equation. Later in the conversation, Peter makes one of the episode's most compelling points. Brand visibility has become harder, not easier, because much of the early research now occurs within AI tools. Buyers form opinions long before they speak with a sales rep. That shift explains why so many B2B companies are returning to high-impact brand channels, whether that is F1 sponsorships or other standout moments that keep them in the initial consideration set. We close with the topic that Peter believes will define the next stage of enterprise AI. Model Context Protocol. MCP has emerged as a quiet breakthrough, enabling LLMs to access data across CRM systems, files, and other software through a standard protocol. This removes one of the biggest blockers in AI projects: the practical challenge of connecting disparate data to a model built for a specific purpose. As Peter puts it, MCP gives companies a realistic way to make the special-purpose models that deliver reliable ROI. It is a wide-ranging conversation shaped by SIGNAL London's announcements, the evolving customer journey, and a year in which AI moved from curiosity to expectation. I would love to know what part stood out most to you. Are you seeing the same shifts Peter describes in your own business, and how are you preparing for the year ahead?

AI agents are moving fast, and security teams are scrambling to keep up.Join us as Heather Ceylan, SVP & Chief Information Security Officer at Box, who has spent the last several years leading security teams through rapid change from the explosive growth years at Zoom to her current work shaping Box's AI posture.Heather shares what it actually feels like to run security at a time when agents can be created in minutes, permissions matter more than ever, and governance committees are struggling to keep pace. She explains why treating agents as identities fundamentally changes the model, how MCP servers introduce new exposure points, and why her team is embedding AI directly into SOC work, design reviews, and vulnerability remediation.It's a grounded look at how a CISO makes sense of AI while everything around the role continues to shift.In this episode, you'll learn:Why agents need their own identities and permissions rather than inheriting access from the people who create themHow SOC teams can shift from constant alert triage to real threat hunting with the help of AI agentsHow AI can speed up vulnerability remediation by creating pull requests that engineers only need to review and mergeThings to listen for: (00:00) Meet Heather Ceylan(00:58) Career path from healthcare to Zoom to Box(03:58) Risks of AI agents accessing unstructured content(05:18) Why agent identity and permissions are the new priority(06:50) The challenge of discovering and governing ephemeral agents(08:16) How sandboxes and policies support safe experimentation(09:20) AI governance gaps and the need for dedicated ownership(13:10) Defining AI governance across technical and legal domains(16:17) The rise of MCP servers and new exposure points(18:05) Four AI bets transforming Box's SOC and security workflows(23:31) KPIs and measuring AI's impact on security teams(25:27) Resource trade-offs when adopting AI in security(27:58) Managing the complexity of model selection and trust(29:58) Should companies form dedicated AI security teams?

Comment rester maître de son e-commerce à l'ère de l'IA ?Dans un monde où les cycles technologiques se compressent, où l'IA générative bouleverse nos façons de créer, d'analyser et de décider, les e-commerçants doivent évoluer plus vite que jamais. Comment piloter un business dans un environnement où les outils, les usages et les modèles économiques changent plus vite que les cycles d'investissement ? Comment faire les bons choix lorsque le risque de se tromper n'a jamais été aussi élevé ?Pour répondre à ces questions, je reçois Olivier Binet, CEO de Prestashop.Avec plus de 25 ans d'expérience dans l'e-commerce, les paiements et l'innovation, il observe la transformation de la chaîne de valeur sous toutes ses coutures : front, back-office, acquisition, logistique, data, plateformes et désormais IA.Dans cet épisode, nous abordons les enjeux qui structurent les décisions des e-commerçants en 2026. Olivier explique pourquoi l'accélération technologique crée une véritable anxiété chez les marchands, comment l'usage de l'IA, plus que la technologie elle-même, marque une rupture comparable à l'arrivée d'Internet ou de l'iPhone, et pourquoi les futurs parcours d'achat pourraient être largement délégués à des agents intelligents.Nous parlons également de la montée du GEO, ce « nouveau SEO » destiné aux LLM, de la souveraineté des données, du rôle déterminant de la plateforme technique, des risques de dépendance aux intermédiaires, et de la nécessité, pour les dirigeants, de garder des portes ouvertes plutôt que de chercher une solution définitive.Enfin, Olivier partage sa vision pour Prestashop : une plateforme flexible, ouverte, conçue pour absorber toutes les ruptures à venir et permettre aux marchands de décider vite, mais surtout de décider juste.Un épisode clé pour tous ceux qui pilotent un business e-commerce et qui cherchent à comprendre comment prendre les bonnes décisions dans un monde où tout s'accélère.Bonne écoute, toujours sans coupure !Hébergé par Ausha.

Key TakeawaysAgents take center stage: Bensch says last year's event was focused on Copilot basics and early-stage AI adoption, but 2025 is the year of agents. Organizations are asking how to make agents work securely, how to tap into data through offerings like Work IQ and MCP servers, and how to build governance that actually holds up. Attendees can expect deep dives into security, data extraction, Dataverse, Finance & Operations, and all the new features unveiled at Microsoft Ignite. “Everyone's hearing agents, agents, agents,” he notes. “So, how do I get them to work?”Sessions designed for real adoption—not marketing fluff: This year's call for speakers exploded from ~160 last year to over 500 submissions, giving planners a far stronger pool of practical, hands-on sessions. The programming committee prioritizes real-world implementations, lessons learned, and “the good, the bad, and the ugly” of AI projects. He stresses that this event is not a product-pitch environment. Instead, sessions will help attendees understand how to build, deploy, and scale agents across modern work, business apps, and development workflows. “We're looking for empowering people,” Bensch says.Where strategy meets execution: Bensch explains that most attendees will fall somewhere between the starting line of AI adoption and mid-stage Copilot integration—but everyone is looking to connect the dots between strategy and execution. From governance to Dataverse to legacy-system integration via computer-use capabilities, sessions will show how companies can extend agent intelligence far beyond Q&A. The setting, including intimate sessions, world-class speakers, and networking events like golf and pickleball at Torrey Pines, creates space for candid, high-impact conversations attendees won't find at massive trade shows.

Microsoft has announced a price increase for its Office productivity software subscriptions, set to take effect on July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Business Basic subscription will rise from $6 to $7 per user per month, while the Business Standard subscription will increase from $12.50 to $14. Additionally, the Microsoft 365 E3 enterprise subscription will see a 13% hike from $23 to $26. This adjustment follows a period of infrequent price changes since the launch of Office 365 in 2011 and reflects Microsoft's significant investment in its platform, which has introduced over 1,100 new features in the past year. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) should prepare for customer pushback regarding these increases, as clients may direct their frustrations toward their service providers rather than Microsoft.In related developments, several companies have announced product updates aimed at simplifying user experiences. Nerdio has enhanced its enterprise platform to support Azure Virtual Desktop in hybrid environments, while Coro has released version 3.7 of its cybersecurity platform, which features a redesigned interface for improved management. Comcast Business has also upgraded its internet services for small businesses, offering faster speeds and enhanced reliability. These updates indicate a broader trend toward simplifying technology solutions, but they also introduce new governance risks that MSPs must address.The episode also highlights a shift in educational trends, with an increasing number of college students opting for artificial intelligence majors over traditional computer science degrees. This change is driven by concerns over job market prospects for computer science graduates. As universities adapt their curricula to meet the demand for AI skills, MSPs may face challenges in finding candidates who possess the necessary infrastructure knowledge to support business operations effectively.For MSPs and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of proactive communication with clients regarding price changes and the value of technology investments. As tools become more automated and user-friendly, the need for robust governance and security measures becomes paramount. MSPs should focus on ensuring that their clients understand the implications of these changes and the necessity of maintaining foundational IT practices, particularly as the talent pipeline shifts toward AI-focused education.

With statistics that say 95% of AI projects are failing and enterprise budgets tightening, 2026 demands production-quality AI—not more proof-of-concepts. This episode explores the critical shift from building agents to deploying them safely at scale.Key ThemesThe Reality Check (2025 Recap)MIT study reveals 95% AI project failure rateMcKinsey and BCG document widespread implementation strugglesBoard-level AI initiatives now demand real ROI, not just innovation theaterThe POC gold rush is over—experimentation budgets are drying upAgentic AI Grows Up The conversation has evolved from "can we build agents?" to "can we trust them in production?" Three critical roadblocks:Security & Orchestration: How agents interact without creating vulnerabilitiesPolicy & Governance: Preventing rogue agents and establishing guardrailsObservability: Real-time monitoring to ensure agents perform as intendedAWS re:Invent 2025 HighlightsAgent Core ImprovementsEnhanced policy frameworks defining agent boundaries and permissionsHuman-in-the-loop controls for high-stakes decisionsBetter cross-stack orchestration for multi-agent workflowsThe Discoverability ProblemAWS Marketplace now features natural language searchUpload requirements documents instead of filling rigid formsAI-suggested prompts help non-technical users navigate complex decisionsSmarter filtering for nuanced needs (performance vs. cost vs. compliance)The Full-Stack MaturityRecognition that AI "takes a village"—no single vendor owns the entire stackGrowing emphasis on open standards (A2A, MCP) for SaaS integrationTools designed for all skill levels, not just data scientistsKey TakeawayEnterprise AI in 2026 isn't about doing more—it's about doing it right. The winners will be organizations that prioritize governance, observability, and practical deployment over flashy demos.Host: Maribel LopezRecorded: AWS re:Invent, Las Vegas, December 2025Follow-up: Stay tuned for next week's deep-dive episode with demos and vendor interviews

Together, they break down the biggest shifts coming to B2B SaaS go-to-market—from the rise of hybrid motions and the evolution of sales roles to the transformative impact of AI-powered demos, agents, and conversational interfaces.Roelof shares actionable, stage-specific insights for founders at every level. You'll hear why PLG is becoming a company-wide strategy instead of a product feature, how onboarding is expanding beyond the UI, why freemium is harder for AI-native products, and what it really takes to build data tracking that supports growth instead of slowing it down.Whether you're moving from sales-led to product-led, building a hybrid GTM, or preparing your SaaS product for an AI-first future, this episode offers a clear roadmap for navigating the changes ahead and meeting buyers where they want to be in 2026.Tune in to learn how to implement PLG effectively, empower your sales team in a consultative model, integrate AI responsibly, and build growth loops that compound over time.Key Timecodes(0:00) – B2B SaaS, PLG, AI onboarding, AI demos, product-qualified pipeline, GTM 2026, SaaS Summit(0:52) – B2B SaaS podcast(0:58) – Roelof Otten, SaaSmeister, PLG(1:07) – GTM 2026, PLG trends(1:42) – Hybrid GTM, PLG, sales-led(2:36) – AI GTM, AI agents, AI demos(3:12) – Interactive demos, AI sales assistant(3:50) – Buyer enablement, AI demo(4:20) – In-product AI, trial support(4:36) – PLG transformation, sales alignment(5:21) – Consultative sales, upsell, PQLs(5:43) – PLG funnel, activation, expansion(6:00) – Conversational UI, AI UX(6:52) – UX transition(7:25) – AI platform, data layer, models(7:37) – MCP, AI integrations, ChatGPT, Claude(8:10) – AI privacy, security, compliance(8:46) – Build vs buy AI, LLMs(9:22) – PLG first, SaaS trial(9:38) – Reditus, SaaS affiliate(10:22) – AI costs, freemium(10:35) – Freemium strategy, CAC, churn(11:39) – Referrals, partnerships, affiliate growth(12:33) – In-app referrals, incentives(13:06) – Onboarding, nurture, reactivation(13:57) – Signup friction, JTBD, ICP(14:57) – Personalized onboarding(15:14) – Founder-led sales, JTBD, messaging(15:45) – ICP focus, activation metrics(16:39) – Product analytics, event tracking(17:01) – Roelof Otten, SaaSmeister(17:15) – Podcast outro, sponsor, Reditus
On this episode I sit down with indie app builder and designer Chris ****Raroque to walk through his real AI coding workflow. Chris explains how he ships a portfolio of productivity apps doing thousands in MRR by pairing Claude Code and Cursor instead of picking just one tool. He live-demos “vibe coding” an iOS animation, then compares how Claude Code and Cursor's plan mode tackle the same task. The episode closes with concrete tips on plan mode, MCP servers, AI code review, dictation, and deep research so solo devs can build bigger apps than they could alone. Timestamps 00:00 – Intro 03:04 – Which Tools & Models to Use 09:16 – Thoughts on the Vibe Coding Mobile App Landscape 11:14 – Live demo: prompting Claude Code to build an iOS “AI searching” animation 18:07 – Live demo: prompting Cursor with same task 21:02 – Chris's Best Tips for Vibe Coders Key Points You don't have to pick one IDE copilot: Chris actively switches between Claude Code and Cursor because they have different strengths. For very complex bug-hunting, he prefers Cursor with plan mode; for big-picture app architecture, he leans on Claude Code with Opus. Non-developers should start on higher-level “vibe coding” platforms like Create Anything for mobile apps before graduating to Claude/Cursor. Plan mode plus detailed, spoken prompts dramatically improves code quality, especially for UI and animation work. MCP servers and AI code review bots let solo developers safely set up infra, enforce security, and catch bugs they'd otherwise miss. Claude's deep research is a powerful way to choose the right patterns and libraries before handing implementation back to Claude Code or Cursor.
