Podcasts about prompting

In this episode, Alexandra Sunderland (VP of Engineering at Fellow) pulls back the curtain on how she runs engineering with agentic workflows that actually move the needle: background coding agents in Cursor that fix bugs while she's in meetings, Claude + MCPs to query Linear and auto-generate reports in seconds, and Zapier pipelines that turn meeting transcripts into daily briefs, real-time project risk pings, sales insights, and even 1:1 growth trackers. The theme: make conversations computable, specialize agents narrowly, and wire every tool together so ops happen while you sleep.Timestamps1:11 — Background: 13+ yrs with Aydin; author of Remote Engineering Management.2:13 — What is an “agent”? Alexandra's practical definition (automation + LLM).3:39 — Why specialized agents beat general ones (Sept 2025 reality check).5:25 — Cursor background agents via Slack VIP notifications—coding while she's away.8:00 — Hackathon: hand-built dev productivity dashboard vs. Claude + Linear MCP.10:38 — Why use Claude here instead of Cursor: downloadable PDFs & exploratory insights.13:03 — Interface shift: logging into Linear/GitHub less; notify via Slack instead.14:21 — Plan: live workflows that leaders can copy.15:31 — Workflow #1: Daily Brief in Zapier (9:00 a.m. trigger → transcripts → CoS-style digest).18:00 — Slack example of the generated daily brief.20:22 — Workflow #2: Project Meeting Insights—real-time blockers & cross-team risks.22:00 — Prompting style (“best VP of Eng in the world”) and why it helps.26:40 — Idea: an “Alexandra agent” that drafts her responses.27:59 — Workflow #3: Sales call mining → bug/feature requests for Eng.29:14 — Next step: Cursor agents created via API—fixes ready for human review minutes after calls.30:23 — Rolling Cursor to product & success; non-engineers leverage code context.31:16 — Auto-drafting help center docs with Cursor that can browse.32:34 — Future: docs auto-update—or vanish into on-demand LLM answers.34:52 — Workflow #4 (WIP): 1:1 growth tracker—extract coaching, strengths, feedback into a living doc.37:41 — Sales coaching automation: enforce key phrases/objection handling.38:10 — Playbook: start with simple “yesterday's conversations → insights,” then stack.39:24 — Next 12 months: tools connecting to each other, patterns across datasets.Tools & Technologies Mentioned (with quick notes)Cursor — AI-powered code editor with background agents (cloud-run) and Slack integration for async coding and fixes.Cursor Background Agents API — Programmatically spin up agents to implement bug fixes/features for later human review.Slack (VIP Notifications) — Marking the Cursor app as VIP ensures agent updates punch through Do Not Disturb.Claude — LLM used with MCPs to query data sources (e.g., Linear), generate PDFs, surface trends, and build ad-hoc reports.MCP (Model Context Protocol) — Standard to connect LLMs to tools/data (e.g., Linear) for live, permissioned operations.Linear — Issue/project tracker; source for ticket analytics (resolution rates, triage time, stage durations).Zapier — No-code automations; schedules, filters, formats, makes API calls, and runs AI by Zapier LLM steps.Fellow.ai — AI meeting assistant capturing summaries, actions, decisions; acts as an “AI chief of staff” across meetings.GitHub — Code hosting referenced as a UI Alexandra now visits less thanks to agentic workflows.Google Docs / Notion / Wiki — Destinations for auto-appending 1:1 growth notes and team principles.APIs (custom + vendor) — Zapier “Webhooks by Zapier”/custom API calls used to fetch transcripts and trigger agents.Subscribe at⁠ thisnewway.com⁠ to get the step-by-step playbooks, tools, and workflows.

AI is transforming education, but I believe strong prompts are the key to unlocking its potential. In this episode, I share the REFINE acronym I developed to give educators a structured approach to writing effective AI prompts. I walk through each step—assigning AI a role, setting clear expectations, framing the context, specifying inclusions, defining nuance, and evaluating outputs—to show how this process keeps teachers in the driver's seat. Whether you're designing lessons, assessments, or scaffolds, REFINE can help you create more effective, inclusive, and responsive learning experiences with AI.

Ever felt that nudge to reach out to someone, share something, or take a step that seemed a little crazy? Most of us ignore those promptings. But what if you didn't?   In this episode, we sit down with The Heritage—a worship team from a small South Carolina church whose obedience to a simple prompting changed everything. From writing songs in their church basement to getting a text from Chris Tomlin, their story will challenge how you think about divine timing, faithfulness, and what God can do through ordinary obedience.  You'll hear about:  The dog breeder who wouldn't take no for an answer  Why sometimes your lowest moments are when breakthrough comes  How staying connected to your local church opened doors they never imagined  What it's like navigating sudden opportunities while staying grounded  If you've ever wondered whether that prompting you feel is worth following, this conversation will give you the courage to say yes—even when you can't see the outcome.   Listen now and discover what's possible when you stop second-guessing and start stepping out.  Worship Online is your new secret weapon for preparing each week. With detailed song tutorials and resources, you and your team will save hours every single week, and remove the stress from preparing for a set.

 Director Wes Anderson has done something just about every person in his trade dreams to do: establish an instantly recognizable and virtually inimitable visual style.He's reached a point in his career at which a member of the moviegoing public could jump in halfway through a trailer with no prompts whatsoever and go, “Huh, Wes Anderson's got a new film coming out.” On this episode of Cinebuds, we ask the question: Has he reached a point in his career at which that's not necessarily a good thing?Prompting that discussion is Anderson's latest release, The Phoenician Scheme, which plays his greatest hits. Symmetrical shots? Yep. Scenes that could easily double as paintings? Sure. Flat, deadpan delivery? Bingo.As our hosts discuss, that final quality might be starting to catch up with Anderson, at least in this one. The Phoenician Scheme sports the top-notch writing and story beats we've also come to expect from Anderson. Yet, despite a cast with the ability to match that high level of scripting, they don't get a chance to create a character. Perhaps you know the adage, “Show, don't tell.” Based on our hosts' experience, The Phoenician Scheme could've used a little more of that. But was that enough to sink the whole ship or just tip it slightly from side to side?Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Co.

Is JSON prompting a useful technique or just influencer trend? In this episode, we examine the heated debate around structured prompts in Veo 3, test the claims ourselves, and share the results. Plus, we dive into Higgsfield Steal's controversial marketing approach and explore AlphaGo, the AI system designed to build other AI models that could accelerate the path to artificial superintelligence.--The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are the personal views of the hosts and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of their respective employers or organizations.

a16z General Partners Erik Torenberg and Martin Casado sit down with technologist and investor Balaji Srinivasan to explore how the metaphors we use to describe AI—whether as god, swarm, tool, or oracle—reveal as much about us as they do about the technology itself.Balaji, best known for his work in crypto and network states, also brings a deep background in machine learning. Together, the trio unpacks the evolution of AI discourse, from monotheistic visions of a singular AGI to polytheistic interpretations shaped by culture and context. They debate the practical and philosophical: the current limits of AI, why prompts function like high-dimensional programs, and what it really takes to “close the loop” in AI reasoning.This is a systems-level conversation on belief, control, infrastructure, and the architectures that might govern future societies. Timecodes:0:00 Introduction: The Polytheistic AGI Framework1:46 Personal Journeys in AI and Crypto3:18 Monotheistic vs. Polytheistic AGI: Competing Paradigms8:20 The Limits of AI: Chaos, Turbulence, and Predictability9:29 Platonic Ideals and Real-World Systems14:10 Decentralized AI and the End of Fast Takeoff14:34 Surprises in AI Progress: Language, Locomotion, and Double Descent25:45 Prompting, Verification, and the Age of the Phrase29:44 AI, Crypto, and the Grounding Problem34:26 Visual vs. Verbal: Where AI Excels and Struggles37:19 The Challenge of Markets, Politics, and Adversarial Systems40:11 Amplified Intelligence: AI as a Force Multiplier43:37 The Polytheistic Counterargument: Convergence and Specialization48:17 AI's Impact on Jobs: Specialists, Generalists, and the Future of Work57:36 Security, Drones, and Digital Borders1:03:41 AI, Power, and the Balance of Control1:06:33 The Coming Anti-AI Backlash1:09:10 Global Implications: Labor, Politics, and the Future Resources:Find Balaji on X: https://x.com/balajisFind Martin on X: https://x.com/martin_casado Stay Updated: Let us know what you think: https://ratethispodcast.com/a16zFind a16z on Twitter: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zSubscribe on your favorite podcast app: https://a16z.simplecast.com/Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

As immigration arrests skyrocket in Northern Virginia, legal aid groups are scrambling to provide communities support and preparation for possible arrests.

This week, President Donald Trump issued many angry threats against Zohran Mamdani, the underdog winner of New York Democratic mayoral primary. Trump has been attacking Mamdani, a state Assemblyman, as a “Communist,”  threatening to arrest him along with other foes, and questioning Mamdani's U.S. citizenship, hinting at a possible effort to try to strip his citizenship.  What caught our eye is Mamdani's response: It was sharply worded, illuminated the real stakes in this battle in a novel way, and effectively declared that the threat posed by Trump's secret police to immigrants actually threatens us all. Democrats can learn from this, because Trump's threats to denaturalize foes may soon become real. We talked to David Bier, director of immigration studies at the Cato Institute. He explains what Trump would need to do to denaturalize Mamdani and other political opponents, what liberals and Democrats be preparing for right now, and why basic freedoms are hanging in the balance—for all of us.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

We have an unusual episode today. One, because of its length (1 hour 40 minutes), and two, because I'm the guest. Joined by Aidan Morrison as acting host, I talk about a topic of intense interest to me: the Darlington SMR project in Ontario, Canada. I've been critical of this SMR project, which recently received its final investment decision, by calling for a pivot to CANDU reactors at the site.I use this episode to break down all my reasons for being critical, and to concede ground to this bold SMR project where earned. This is not the first place I've shared my reasoning (media interview here, LinkedIn post there), but it is the most in-depth.If you have time to listen to the full thing, I promise you will leave quite knowledgeable about the ambitious and capable Ontario nuclear sector, which I've studied and engaged with for years.Prompting this episode was the OPG's final investment decision on the SMR and the revelation of its eye-watering cost estimates. I break down the $4.5 billion price tag for the first unit, the expected learning that will take place, and share why this represents not just a technical and economic challenge, but a strategic mistake that could undermine Canada's competitive advantage in nuclear power. From the massive excavation challenges of burying a reactor ten stories underground to the national security risks of abandoning proven CANDU technology for American designs, I hope to share some of the hard truths behind the SMR hype.Read extended shownotes on Substack.Watch now on YouTube.

Sander Schulhoff is the OG prompt engineer. He created the very first prompt engineering guide on the internet (two months before ChatGPT's release) and recently wrote the most comprehensive study of prompt engineering ever conducted (co-authored with OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, Princeton, and Stanford), analyzing over 1,500 academic papers and covering more than 200 prompting techniques. He also partners with OpenAI to run what was the first and is the largest AI red teaming competition, HackAPrompt, which helps discover the most state-of-the-art prompt injection techniques (i.e. ways to get LLMS to do things it shouldn't). Sander teaches AI red teaming on Maven, advises AI companies on security, and has educated millions of people on the most state-of-the-art prompt engineering techniques.In this episode, you'll learn:1. The 5 most effective prompt engineering techniques2. Why “role prompting” and threatening the AI no longer works—and what to do instead3. The two types of prompt engineering: conversational and product/system prompts4. A primer on prompt injection and AI red teaming—including real jailbreak tactics that are still fooling top models5.
