AI Assisted Coding: From Deterministic to AI-Driven—The New Paradigm of Software Development, With Markus Hjort In this BONUS episode, we dive deep into the emerging world of AI-assisted coding with Markus Hjort, CTO of Bitmagic. Markus shares his hands-on experience with what's being called "vibe coding" - a paradigm shift where developers work more like technical product owners, guiding AI agents to produce code while focusing on architecture, design patterns, and overall system quality. This conversation explores not just the tools, but the fundamental changes in how we approach software engineering as a team sport. Defining Vibecoding: More Than Just Autocomplete "I'm specifying the features by prompting, using different kinds of agentic tools. And the agent is producing the code. I will check how it works and glance at the code, but I'm a really technical product owner." Vibecoding represents a spectrum of AI-assisted development approaches. Markus positions himself between pure "vibecoding" (where developers don't look at code at all) and traditional coding. He produces about 90% of his code using AI tools, but maintains technical oversight by reviewing architectural patterns and design decisions. The key difference from traditional autocomplete tools is the shift from deterministic programming languages to non-deterministic natural language prompting, which requires an entirely different way of thinking about software development. The Paradigm Shift: When AI Changed Everything "It's a different paradigm! Looking back, it started with autocomplete where Copilot could implement simple functions. But the real change came with agentic coding tools like Cursor and Claude Code." Markus traces his journey through three distinct phases. First came GitHub Copilot's autocomplete features for simple functions - helpful but limited. Next, ChatGPT enabled discussing architectural problems and getting code suggestions for unfamiliar technologies. The breakthrough arrived with agentic tools like Cursor and Claude Code that can autonomously implement entire features. This progression mirrors the historical shift from assembly to high-level languages, but with a crucial difference: the move from deterministic to non-deterministic communication with machines. Where Vibecoding Works Best: Knowing Your Risks "I move between different levels as I go through different tasks. In areas like CSS styling where I'm not very professional, I trust the AI more. But in core architecture where quality matters most, I look more thoroughly." Vibecoding effectiveness varies dramatically by context. Markus applies different levels of scrutiny based on his expertise and the criticality of the code. For frontend work and styling where he has less expertise, he relies more heavily on AI output and visual verification. For backend architecture and core system components, he maintains closer oversight. This risk-aware approach is essential for startup environments where developers must wear multiple hats. The beauty of this flexibility is that AI enables developers to contribute meaningfully across domains while maintaining appropriate caution in critical areas. Teaching Your Tools: Making AI-Assisted Coding Work "You first teach your tool to do the things you value. Setting system prompts with information about patterns you want, testing approaches you prefer, and integration methods you use." Success with AI-assisted coding requires intentional configuration and practice. Key strategies include: System prompts: Configure tools with your preferred patterns, testing approaches, and architectural decisions Context management: Watch context length carefully; when the AI starts making mistakes, reset the conversation Checkpoint discipline: Commit working code frequently to Git - at least every 30 minutes, ideally after every small working feature Dual AI strategy: Use ChatGPT or Claude for architectural discussions, then bring those ideas to coding tools for implementation Iteration limits: Stop and reassess after roughly 5 failed iterations rather than letting AI continue indefinitely Small steps: Split features into minimal increments and commit each piece separately In this segment we refer to the episode with Alan Cyment on AI Assisted Coding, and the Pachinko coding anti-pattern. Team Dynamics: Bigger Chunks and Faster Coordination "The speed changes a lot of things. If everything goes well, you can produce so much more stuff. So you have to have bigger tasks. Coordination changes - we need bigger chunks because of how much faster coding is." AI-assisted coding fundamentally reshapes team workflows. The dramatic increase in coding speed means developers need larger, more substantial tasks to maintain flow and maximize productivity. Traditional approaches of splitting stories into tiny tasks become counterproductive when implementation speed increases 5-10x. This shift impacts planning, requiring teams to think in terms of complete features rather than granular technical tasks. The coordination challenge becomes managing handoffs and integration points when individuals can ship significant functionality in hours rather than days. The Non-Deterministic Challenge: A New Grammar "When you're moving from low-level language to higher-level language, they are still deterministic. But now with LLMs, it's not deterministic. This changes how we have to think about coding completely." The shift to natural language prompting introduces fundamental uncertainty absent from traditional programming. Unlike the progression from assembly to C to Python - all deterministic - working with LLMs means accepting probabilistic outputs. This requires developers to adopt new mental models: thinking in terms of guidance rather than precise instructions, maintaining checkpoints for rollback, and developing intuition for when AI is "hallucinating" versus producing valid solutions. Some developers struggle with this loss of control, while others find liberation in focusing on what to build rather than how to build it. Code Reviews and Testing: What Changes? "With AI, I spend more time on the actual product doing exploratory testing. The AI is doing the coding, so I can focus on whether it works as intended rather than syntax and patterns." Traditional code review loses relevance when AI generates syntactically correct, pattern-compliant code. The focus shifts to testing actual functionality and user experience. Markus emphasizes: Manual exploratory testing becomes more important as developers can't rely on having written and understood every line Test discipline is critical - AI can write tests that always pass (assert true), so verification is essential Test-first approach helps ensure tests actually verify behavior rather than just existing Periodic test validation: Randomly modify test outputs to verify they fail when they should Loosening review processes to avoid bottlenecks when code generation accelerates dramatically Anti-Patterns and Pitfalls to Avoid Several common mistakes emerge when developers start with AI-assisted coding: Continuing too long: When AI makes 5+ iterations without progress, stop and reset rather than letting it spiral Skipping commits: Without frequent Git checkpoints, recovery from AI mistakes becomes extremely difficult Over-reliance without verification: Trusting AI-generated tests without confirming they actually test something meaningful Ignoring context limits: Continuing to add context until the AI becomes confused and produces poor results Maintaining traditional task sizes: Splitting work too granularly when AI enables completing larger chunks Forgetting exploration: Reading about tools rather than experimenting hands-on with your own projects The Future: Autonomous Agents and Automatic Testing "I hope that these LLMs will become larger context windows and smarter. Tools like Replit are pushing boundaries - they can potentially do automatic testing and verification for you." Markus sees rapid evolution toward more autonomous development agents. Current trends include: Expanded context windows enabling AI to understand entire codebases without manual context curation Automatic testing generation where AI not only writes code but also creates and runs comprehensive test suites Self-verification loops where agents test their own work and iterate without human intervention Design-to-implementation pipelines where UI mockups directly generate working code Agentic tools that can break down complex features autonomously and implement them incrementally The key insight: we're moving from "AI helps me code" to "AI codes while I guide and verify" - a fundamental shift in the developer's role from implementer to architect and quality assurance. Getting Started: Experiment and Learn by Doing "I haven't found a single resource that covers everything. My recommendation is to try Claude Code or Cursor yourself with your own small projects. You don't know the experience until you try it." Rather than pointing to comprehensive guides (which don't yet exist for this rapidly evolving field), Markus advocates hands-on experimentation. Start with personal projects where stakes are low. Try multiple tools to understand their strengths. Build intuition through practice rather than theory. The field changes so rapidly that reading about tools quickly becomes outdated - but developing the mindset and practices for working with AI assistance provides durable value regardless of which specific tools dominate in the future.

In this episode of JavaScript Jabber, I sit down with AWS's Clare Liguori and Erik Hanchett to talk about Kiro, a brand-new AI-powered IDE that's reimagining the way developers build software. We dive into how Kiro takes “AI-assisted coding” to a new level through spec-driven development — a process that focuses on defining requirements and collaborating with AI to break projects into clear, manageable tasks.We unpack what sets Kiro apart from tools like Cursor and Copilot, explore its supervised vs. autopilot coding modes, and even talk about how it handles UI design, planning, and complex legacy codebases. Clare and Erik share behind-the-scenes insights on how Kiro was built using Kiro itself, what's coming next for the platform, and how developers can join the early-access community to help shape its future.

Send us a textYou know that friend who swears they “didn't pass out, just blacked out,” and then remembers the jet ski at the bottom of the pool? That's the energy we bring as we crash through First Friday, wild party lore, and the kind of confessions only a tight crew can pull out of each other. We bounce from BuzzBalls and Wapatuli fruit bombs to a floating sheep myth that may or may not be real, and somehow it all sets the stage for a surprisingly honest question: is sexting with AI cheating—or just modern loneliness with better UI?The jokes fly fast, but the heart shows. We spar over porn ID laws, privacy paranoia, deleting search histories, and the weird intimacy of voice—why a deep, country drawl can feel like gravity. Then the vibe shifts: we dig into Puff Daddy headlines, consent and age-of-consent laws, and how clout and parenting decisions warp the line between “grown” and “not.” That opens the door to family: who had both parents, who didn't, who became a “good dad” after swearing they wouldn't repeat the past. It's raw, funny, and unfiltered—because real life isn't tidy, and neither are we.We cool it down with movie and series recs (Black Rabbit, Play Dirty, Clickbait, The Revenant, Avatar's elemental saga) and debate what's worth your queue. We swap gym hacks—Sour Patch Kids for quick carbs, honey shots before max lifts—and tell the truth about libido “boosters” and learning to say no even when old scripts say yes. Finally, we geek out on EV torque, autopilot reality checks, and why Waymo still gives us the ick. It's a ride from chaos to clarity, held together by the kind of chemistry you can't fake.Hit play, laugh with us, argue with us, and drop your take: is AI flirting a foul or a loophole? If you vibe with the show, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review—your support keeps the mics hot and the stories rolling.Thanks for listening to the Nobody's Talking Podcast.

This week our hosts Liz and Joe were joined by Nick, our WoW Classic expert. While they waited very impatiently for the next round of news about Midnight, they talked about the new trend in Classic, to use addons to make Hardcore mode even more Hardcore by obscuring certain heads up data in the UI. When is enough enough? But that wasn't all. There was a new Trading Post, the Turbo Boost, and a nice little bonus for Wrath of the Lich King users in China.But it wasn't all WoW. A whole new Hearthstone expansion was announced. Across the Timeways has a fun time travel angle with Chromie, though it feels like there are so many Hearthstone expansions these days (even though there are the same amount).Plus, there were patches for-- wait, let me check my notes again. StarCraft 2 and Heroes of the Storm? And Heroes of the Storm got a brand new adorable mount?

Tema del dia Ni el Joan, ni la Sílvia ni l'Andreu són gent de platja, però resulta que és el tema #72 de la llista de temes del Randy, així que avui repassem el vocabulari sobre la platja i el mar. Som-hi! Vine a parlar a Discord cada setmana! (http://easycatalan.org/membership) Bonus Continuem la conversa sobre els llocs on ens agrada llegir. Transcripció Joan: [0:15] Hola, Andreu! Com estàs? Andreu: [0:17] Hola, Joan! Bé, bé, ja s'ha acabat el Repte… Joan: [0:22] Estàs trist? Andreu: [0:24] Em… No, a veure, siguem sincers, en realitat... és a dir, no dic... Joan: [0:33] Estàs trist, eh? Andreu: [0:36] No! Espera, o sigui, aquest episodi que s'està publicant, si tot va bé, s'està publicant, s'ha publicat el dia 2 d'octubre, l'estem gravant el 5 de setembre, o sigui, gairebé amb un mes d'antelació. Llavors… Joan: [0:49] Jo volia fer aquí la comèdia, eh? Andreu: [0:52] No, no, no farem teatre. Per nosaltres, ara mateix, el Joan i l'Andreu que estan gravant, el Repte tot just ha començat, però clar, el dia 2 ja s'haurà acabat. Llavors, de moment podem dir que està anant molt bé, i esperem que continuï així fins al final. Joan: [1:10] Doncs ara que dius això de que no sabem què haurà passat, tampoc sabrem si ja potser ha nascut la Meritxell, eh? La meva filla i de la Sílvia. Andreu: [1:20] Clar! Ui, crec que acabes de revelar el nom aquí al pòdcast per primer cop. Joan: [1:24] Ah, doncs es dirà Meritxell. Andreu: [1:26] Meritxell. Joan: [1:27] Sí. Andreu: [1:28] I per què Meritxell? Joan: [1:29] Mira, no ho sé. Amb la Sílvia sempre dèiem que no tindríem fills, però teníem claríssim que si mai en teníem, si era una nena seria Meritxell i si era un nen seria Joaquim. Andreu: [1:41] Ah! Molt bé. Joan: [1:42] Sí, mira. Andreu: [1:43] O sigui, ho teníeu claríssim. Fàcil, llavors. Joan: [1:46] Sí, sí, sí, o sigui, no ha sigut ara un debat d'ara, sinó que vam anar al ginecòleg i va dir: "Serà nena". Pam, Meritxell. Andreu: [1:53] Molt bé. Joan: [1:53] Ja està. Sí, sí, sí, sí. Andreu: [1:54] Meritxell. A mi m'agrada molt, també, aquest nom. Molt bé. Bona tria. Joan: [1:57] És maco, és maco. Andreu: [1:58] És bonic, sí. Joan: [1:59] A més, és d'aquests difícils per a estrangers, eh? Perquè amb la ella al final... Andreu: [2:04] Ja, però sempre pots dir Meri, Mary, que és com Maria, però no és Maria, perquè és Meritxell. Bé, en fi, clar, doncs exacte, cap al 2 d'octubre és probable que hagi nascut... Joan: [2:16] O si no estarà a punt a punt a punt. Andreu: [2:17] O si no, estarà super a punt de néixer, la Meritxell. Per tant, bé, qui sap com estarem realment el 2 d'octubre. Estarem molt cansats del Repte, o no, amb ganes de repetir…? Jo sí, jo amb ganes de repetir segur, perquè m'ho vaig passar molt bé al gener. M'ho estic passant molt bé ara. Llavors… no sé, segurament repetirem, no?, Joan? Joan: [2:39] Sí, sí, segur! Tu què creus? Per quines dates podria ser? Andreu: [2:43] Jo crec que el gener és un bon moment per repetir. Clar, aquest any el vam fer al gener i ara el setembre. Han passat molts mesos entremig. Jo crec que podríem tornar-ho a fer al gener, però potser ho podríem fer en un format diferent.

Inspired by the ethos of Silk Road and the lifespans of Agora and Dream Market, a new player emerged from the shadows of Tor in 2020: Archetyp. Built on promises of security, usability, and “ethical” standards, the marketplace steadily grew while rivals rose and fell. By 2025 it served ≈ 600 000 users, ≈ 3 000 vendors, and had moved ≈ €250 million in illicit transactions.We trace the founder—known as “Yoshi” (BigBossChefOfArchetyp)—and his obsessive focus on operational security. Archetyp required Monero‑only payments, leveraged PGP encryption, offered auto‑encryption of shipping data, ran an anti‑phishing sandbox (“jail”), and used rotating Tor mirrors to stay online.Beyond the tech, the market stood out for its sleek UI, step‑by‑step guides, powerful search filters, and even built‑in games—making it the “beauty queen” of darknet markets.Relentless DDoS attacks smothered Archetyp's fifth‑birthday celebration. Shortly afterward, Yoshi vanished from the forums and an ominous “maintenance” screen replaced the home page—blank and static. A few days later a graphic‑novel‑style video surfaced online, announcing that the market had been seized.Operation Deep Sentinel—a coordinated sweep led by Germany's BKA and backed by Europol, Eurojust, Dutch, Spanish, Romanian, Swedish, and U.S. agencies—hit in June 2025. Within days the Dutch data centre was seized, a 30‑year‑old German administrator was arrested in Barcelona, and €7.8 million in cash, crypto and hardware vanished into police evidence lockers.As the front page flickered to a seizure banner, frantic posts flooded the Dread forum. The darknet community, hardened by previous busts, scattered—but the question remains: Can law enforcement ever stay ahead of the ever‑evolving dark‑web trade?Speakers:Sarah Fares, Analyst at the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime.Louise Ferret, Lead Threat Intelligence Analyst at Searchlight Cyber.Article:An Archetypal drug market: Despite the dismantling of dark web drug market Archetyp, illicit marketplaces reassemble faster than they fallAdditional Links:Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized CrimeSearchlight CyberResearch...
Forza bros, rejoice! After plenty of speculation, rumors, and eventual leaks, Forza Horizon 6 has finally been announced at Tokyo Game Show 2025. Joining me is honorary Duke, Sir Bradley Ellis, to discuss all things Forza and more in the world of gaming! It has been long anticipated that Playground would take the franchise to Japan and now that it's finally happening, we have a lot to go over. Landing in 2026, this will be hitting Xbox and PC first, which already lands a little out of the realm of our expectations. When is the inevitable PlayStation port? We dive into just that. Moreover, Playground may end up being the 2026 darling for Xbox if Fable and Forza hit in the same year. Matty and Brad dig into their expectations for 2026 where no doubt there will be a double feature including these two. Beyond that, we dive into the recent State Of Play, the new OD gameplay, more leaked details on Perfect Dark's episodic format, and much more!

Whatagraph has evolved from a bootstrap marketing reporting tool to a comprehensive marketing intelligence platform processing data from 12+ sources for marketing teams globally. With over $10 million in funding and a decade of iteration, the Lithuania-based company recently launched "Whatagraph 3.0"—a fundamental shift from pure sales-led to hybrid PLG motion. In this episode of Category Visionaries, Justas Malinauskas shares the technical and strategic decisions behind their transformation from agency tool to enterprise marketing intelligence platform, including their multi-agentic AI implementation and the SEO strategy that generates 500+ MQLs monthly. Topics Discussed: Technical architecture evolution from reporting automation to full-stack marketing intelligence Strategic pivot from sales-led to hybrid PLG/sales-led motion triggered by mission misalignment Advanced SEO methodology using competitor pain point analysis and search behavior reverse engineering AI implementation using multi-agentic systems rather than simple LLM integration Lithuania's bootstrap-first ecosystem and knowledge-sharing networks among unicorn companies Go-to-market evolution across three distinct phases over 10 years GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Engineer time-to-value as your primary PLG enabler, not feature breadth: Whatagraph achieved 5-minute time-to-value from data connection to dashboard generation—versus the industry standard of hours—by rebuilding their onboarding around AI-powered automation rather than manual drag-and-drop configuration. Justas notes this wasn't just UI optimization but fundamental product architecture changes: "It's basically a lot of knowledge from our last 10 years...we're able to build it like really multi-agentic platform which helps to build those things in steps, not just like drop something randomly." For PLG success, optimize your technical stack for immediate value delivery, not comprehensive feature exposure. Weaponize competitor technical limitations through content strategy: Rather than competing on generic "best marketing tool" keywords, Whatagraph dominated by creating authoritative content around specific competitor pain points. Their "Looker Studio being slow" content strategy captured high-volume searches from frustrated users by actually helping solve the problem while positioning their technical advantages. Justas explains: "The biggest problem was it's actually very slow...when we have everything in house we can make things like very quick and speedy compared to there." Target technical pain points your architecture inherently solves rather than fighting brand-to-brand keyword battles. Align your ICP strategy with your actual technical capabilities, not market perception: Whatagraph's shift to hybrid PLG wasn't market-driven but mission-driven. Justas realized their technical product could serve smaller organizations, but their sales-led approach artificially excluded them: "We were not empowering in the first place people, everyone to make those data driven decisions fast...we were not allowing everyone into the product even if our product was allowing to." Audit whether your go-to-market motion matches your product's actual technical capabilities and addressable market, not just your current revenue optimization. Build SEO moats through search behavior psychology, not keyword tools: Whatagraph's SEO dominance came from Justas thinking like customers in problem-solving mode rather than using standard keyword research. He reverse-engineered the complete buyer journey: "People go through a very much regular process...they search for a problem...find a blog post...find a product...competition...pricing...reviews...then actually buy the product." They attempted to own multiple touchpoints in this journey through strategic content placement across different domains. Map your customer's actual research psychology, not just search volumes. Implement freemium with full core functionality, not feature limitations: Whatagraph's new freemium tier includes their complete AI-powered report generation ("Whatagraph IQ") with only data source limitations, not feature restrictions. This approach lets small users experience the full product value while creating natural upgrade triggers as they grow. Justas notes: "All the core functionality...you're able to talk with your data within AI capabilities and ask questions about your data as you would pay a couple of thousands a month." Design freemium around usage scaling, not capability restrictions, to demonstrate full product value. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KAnalytic Dreamz dives into Borderlands 4's chaotic September 12, 2025, release by Gearbox Software and 2K Games on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam/Epic—Switch 2 port hits October 3. Set on dystopian Kairos, this darker "soft reboot" trades Borderlands 3's memes for grounded resistance vibes, boasting 20-25 hour main story, 50-60 with sides, and 120-170 completionist runs. Sales exploded: 1M+ on Steam in days, another 1M+ consoles pre-Switch, 5M units in 48 hours (franchise-fastest), pushing lifetime totals past 100M ($150M+ revenue). Peak concurrents hit 304,398 (#46 Steam all-time), outpacing Hollow Knight: Silksong's 587,150 but at $70 vs. $20.Critics laud Metacritic 84/PC and OpenCritic 85 ("Mighty" top 7%) for exhilarating gunplay, loot depth, seamless open world (no loading zones), and co-op—IGN 8/10, GameSpot 7/10 praise mobility like double-jumps, grappling, and hybrid "Licensed Parts" weapons blending 8 manufacturers. Bosses demand 10+ minute multi-phase mechanics, not sponges. But "Stutterlands 4" memes rage over Unreal Engine 5 woes: PC stuttering, RTX 4090 FPS drops, crashes, memory leaks; consoles locked at 70° FOV, no motion blur toggle. Day 1 patch helped, but corrupted saves, UI glitches persist—Steam reviews "Mixed."Controversies fuel toxicity: Pre-launch EULA "spyware" rumors (debunked), Pitchford's "$80 real fans" tweet sparking piracy threats, $130 Super Deluxe skimping DLC vs. BL3's $100 Ultimate. Post-launch, Pitchford's "build your own engine" clapback ignited review-bombs. Community splits on Reddit/X: Co-op bliss and Easter eggs (Noisy Cricket, bobbleheads) vs. bland villain, pricing gripes. Analytic Dreamz unpacks if patches salvage this loot-shooter gem amid franchise highs and dev drama—tune in for the full fallout.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this podcast, Thomas Domville walks through Safari's new Tabs layout options in iOS 26, explains the default Compact view, and shows how to switch between Compact, Bottom, and Top tab layouts. The demo is VoiceOver-centric, with practical navigation tips (rotor use, headings, and screen-edge gestures) to make changing this setting quick and repeatable.SummaryWhat changed: Safari now defaults to a Compact UI along the bottom: a single row with More, Tabs, the Address Bar, and a Page Menu. Traditional back/forward controls aren't where long-time users expect.Why it matters: If Compact disrupts your muscle memory (or your VoiceOver workflow), iOS 26 lets you pick an alternate layout—Bottom (classic iOS) or Top (very old Safari style).Key Points & TakeawaysThree layouts available: Compact (default), Bottom (classic), Top (legacy-style).Settings location: You change this in Settings → Apps → Safari → Tabs.VoiceOver navigation pattern: Use headings to jump quickly through long Settings screens; the Apps button sits just left of the Search field at the bottom of Settings.Customization is back: Apple now lets you choose the tab bar placement instead of enforcing a single layout.Step-by-Step GuideFast PathOpen Settings.Go to Apps → Safari.Find the Tabs section.Choose one: Compact, Bottom, or Top.Detailed Instructions with VoiceOverOpen Settings.Four-finger single tap near the bottom to reach the footer controls.Navigate to Apps.You'll encounter the Search field and a Dictate button; Apps is just to the left of Search. Double-tap Apps.Jump by Headings to the letter sections and flick to S; move right to Safari and double-tap.In Safari settings, use Headings to reach Tabs.Swipe right to the layout choices and double-tap your preference:Compact (default)Bottom (classic bottom bar)Top (tab controls at the top) VoiceOver will announce Selected: —you're done.TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by AI Note Taker – VoicePen, an AI-powered transcription app. It is not edited or formatted, and it may not accurately capture the speakers' names, voices, or content.Thomas: Hello and welcome.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with Sweetman, the developer behind on-chain music and co-founder of Recoup. We talk about how musicians in 2025 are coining their content on Base and Zora, earning through Farcaster collectibles, Sound drops, and live shows, while AI agents are reshaping management, discovery, and creative workflows across music and art. The conversation also stretches into Spotify's AI push, the “dead internet theory,” synthetic hierarchies, and how creators can avoid future shock by experimenting with new tools. You can follow Sweetman on Twitter, Farcaster, Instagram, and try Recoup at chat.recoupable.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop introduces Sweetman to talk about on-chain music in 2025.05:00 Coins, Base, Zora, Farcaster, collectibles, Sound, and live shows emerge as key revenue streams for musicians.10:00 Streaming shifts into marketing while AI music quietly fills shops and feeds, sparking talk of the dead internet theory.15:00 Sweetman ties IoT growth and shrinking human birthrates to synthetic consumption, urging builders to plug into AI agents.20:00 Conversation turns to synthetic hierarchies, biological analogies, and defining what an AI agent truly is.25:00 Sweetman demos Recoup: model switching with Vercel AI SDK, Spotify API integration, and building artist knowledge bases.30:00 Tool chains, knowledge storage on Base and Arweave, and expanding into YouTube and TikTok management for labels.35:00 AI elements streamline UI, Sam Altman's philosophy on building with evolving models sparks a strategy discussion.40:00 Stewart reflects on the return of Renaissance humans, orchestration of machine intelligence, and prediction markets.45:00 Sweetman weighs orchestration trade-offs, cost of Claude vs GPT-5, and boutique services over winner-take-all markets.50:00 Parasocial relationships with models, GPT psychosis, and the emotional shock of AI's rapid changes.55:00 Future shock explored through Sweetman's reaction to Cursor, ending with resilience and leaning into experimentation.Key InsightsOn-chain music monetization is diversifying. Sweetman describes how musicians in 2025 use coins, collectibles, and platforms like Base, Zora, Farcaster, and Sound to directly earn from their audiences. Streaming has become more about visibility and marketing, while real revenue comes from tokenized content, auctions, and live shows.AI agents are replacing traditional managers. By consuming data from APIs like Spotify, Instagram, and TikTok, agents can segment audiences, recommend collaborations, and plan tours. What once cost thousands in management fees is now automated, providing musicians with powerful tools at a fraction of the price.Platforms are moving to replace artists. Spotify and other major players are experimenting with AI-generated music, effectively cutting human musicians further out of the revenue loop. This shift reinforces the importance of artists leaning into blockchain monetization and building direct relationships with fans.The “dead internet theory” reframes the future. Sweetman connects IoT expansion and declining birth rates to a world where AI, not humans, will make most online purchases and content. The lesson: build products that are easy for AI agents to buy, consume, and amplify, since they may soon outnumber human users.Synthetic hierarchies mirror biological ones. Stewart introduces the idea that just as cells operate autonomously within the body, billions of AI agents will increasingly act as intermediaries in human creativity and commerce. This frames AI as part of a broader continuity of hierarchical systems in nature and society.Recoup showcases orchestration in practice. Sweetman explains how Recoup integrates Vercel AI SDK, Spotify APIs, and multi-model tool chains to build knowledge bases for artists. By storing profiles on Base and Arweave, Recoup not only manages social media but also automates content optimization, giving musicians leverage once reserved for labels.Future shock is both risk and opportunity. Sweetman shares his initial rejection of AI coding tools as a threat to his identity, only to later embrace them as collaborators. The conversation closes with a call for resilience: experiment with new systems, adapt quickly, and avoid becoming a Luddite in an accelerating digital age.
In this episode of Pixelated Playgrounds, Bryan and Josh dive into Cipher Zero, the minimalist logic puzzler developed by Boston-based indie studio Zapdot and released in July 2025. Beginning life as a Ludum Dare entrant, Cipher Zero has evolved into a sprawling collection of nearly 400 handcrafted puzzles, each one teaching players through experimentation rather than exposition. With its sleek UI, geometric art, and reactive industrial soundtrack, the game communicates ideas wordlessly, then layers and recombines them to expand what's possible within its puzzle language. The guys explore its satisfying rule discovery, linear progression, and the elegance of its design choices while also considering where its lack of hints or philosophical pretension set it apart from genre peers. Spoilers abound after the first 29 minutes, so join us as we pick apart how Cipher Zero turns tile toggling into a gamified learning curve full of gratifying “aha” moments.Three Word Reviews:Bryan - Gamified Learning CurveJosh - Start with SilenceShow Notes:Composer - Will SeegersChris RemoJosh's Talk for Roguelike Celebration 2023 A Monster's Expedition: Through Puzzling Exhibitions & Snakebird

The next generation of analytics is here. In this episode of The Data Chief, ThoughtSpot CEO Ketan Karkhanis explains why AI is the new BI, and the future of analytics is autonomous. Karkhanis shares his vision for the autonomous enterprise, where AI agents act on insights and automate workflows. He also explains why a culture of trust and experimentation is crucial for unlocking AI's full potential. Don't miss this discussion on how to fundamentally rethink how organizations interact with data to drive better business outcomes and build an autonomous enterprise.Key Moments:AI is the New BI (08:35): Ketan explains that AI represents a “foundational rewiring” of the entire technology stack, a shift he calls Cloud 2.0. He predicts the BI market is on the verge of an “upgrade super cycle,” leaving legacy players behind.AI Becomes the Only UI (20:45): Ketan shares his vision that in the future, AI will become "the only UI you will need". He explains that ThoughtSpot's MCP host can bring together structured data, unstructured data, and world knowledge to provide better context for a user's question.Progress over Perfection (25:56): Leaders are reminded not to let “perfection be the enemy of progress.” For Ketan, a culture of trust and openness to experimentation is more important than having perfectly defined KPIs or flawless dashboards.Training Comes First (29:02): One of the biggest lessons learned was the importance of investing in people before chasing the promise of AI outcomes. After rolling out mandatory generative AI training, new use cases began emerging organically from across the business—proof that education fuels innovation.Outcomes Over Tech (38:47): Despite mountains of legacy technology, many organizations remain starved for actionable insights. Ketan points to EasyJet as an example of getting it right: rather than focusing on systems and infrastructure, they designed their AI initiative around a tangible outcome—avoiding flight cancellations.The Rise of the Autonomous Enterprise (42:56): The next frontier is the autonomous enterprise, where AI agents don't just surface insights but also act on them. Ketan envisions a future where humans are freed from mundane tasks to focus on higher-value work like relationships and judgment calls.Key Quotes:"AI becomes the only UI you will need." - Ketan Karkhanis"It's not about AI. It's about ROI." - Ketan Karkhanis"This is no longer just about BI. This is about agents that are driving workflows in your organizations." - Ketan KarkhanisMentions:Go Boundaryless Product SpotlightThoughtSpot Agentic MCP Server Lex Fridman PodcastTeam of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham LincolnThe Path Between the Seas: The Creation of the Panama CanalGuest Bio: Ketan Karkhanis is the CEO of ThoughtSpot.

The litany of Midnight updates and information continues with things ranging from UI updates to dual wielding baguettes. Of course, we pore over every tiny crumb of Player Housing info, as the upcoming truest true end game. Our staff Druid Cory joined us, with an appeal for more Druid forms -- there are a few from the teasers we've seen that he is specifically writing to Santa Metzen about. There's another new Hearthstone miniset to discuss, and to go with it another achingly adorable little pet you can only get by gatcha.Plus, the Heroes of the Storm team gave Cory his regularly scheduled hopium in the form of a relatively sweeping update just before the crew went live. And right before the end of the podcast, Blizzard dropped a whole bunch of blog posts about Midnight, so at least we'll have something to talk about next week!If you have a few minutes, please fill out our survey to tell us what you think about the podcast.

Here's the thing. Generative AI for visuals has shifted from a party trick to everyday craftwork, and few people sit closer to that shift than Ofir Bibi, VP of Research at Lightricks. In this conversation, I wanted to understand how a company famous for Facetune, Photoleap, and Videoleap is building for a future where creators expect speed, control, and choice without a headache. What I found was a story about building core technology that serves real creative workflows, not the other way around. Ofir traces Lightricks' journey from clever on-device tricks that made small screens feel powerful to today's foundation models running in the cloud. The constant thread is usability. Making complex editing feel simple requires smart decisions in the background, and that mindset has shaped everything from their early mobile apps to LTX Studio, the company's multi-model creative platform. Across the last three years, generative features moved from novelty to necessity, and that reality forced a bigger question: when do you stop stitching together other people's models and start crafting your own? That question led to LTXV, an open-source video generation model designed for speed, efficiency, and control. Ofir explains why Lightricks built it from scratch and why they shared the weights and trainer with the community. The result is a fast feedback loop where researchers, developers, and even competitors try ideas on a model that runs on consumer-grade hardware and can generate clips faster than they can be watched. The new LTXV 2B Distilled build continues that push toward quicker iteration and creator-friendly control, including arbitrary frame conditioning that suits animation and keyframe-driven workflows. We also talk about the changing data diet for training. Quantity is out. Quality and preparation matter. Licensed, high-aesthetic datasets and tighter curation produce models that understand prompts, motion, and physics with fewer weird edges. That discipline shows up in the product too. LTX Studio blends Lightricks tech with options from partners like Google's Veo and Black Forest Labs' Flux, then steers users toward the right model for the job through thoughtful UI. If you want the sharpest single shot, you can choose it. If you want fast, iterative tweaks for storytelling, LTXV is front and center. Looking ahead, Ofir sees a near future where models become broader and more multimodal, while creators and enterprises ask for local and on-prem options that keep data closer to home. That makes efficiency a feature, not a footnote. If you care about the craft of making, not just the spectacle, this episode offers a grounded view of how AI can actually serve creators. It left me convinced that speed and control are the real differentiators, and that open source can be a very practical way to get both. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA
