Maybe it was taken out of context, but the headline ‘We don’t care about professional coders anymore’ is misleading and damaging to both non-coders and engineers. For non-coders: AI is incredible and improves daily, but it’s not fully independent. Think of today’s AI agents as

There is probably no more controversial buzzword in software engineering right now than “vibe coding” — trusting AI to write the code for you. People love it, people hate it, they debate it on podcasts, and even teach online courses in it. Parents are questioning whether their

After a decade in collaboration SaaS, I've seen firsthand how much time knowledge workers waste on reviews, approvals, and miscommunications. In fast-paced environments, deliverables spend most of their time "in between." AI can dramatically accelerate this process and flatten

We have the next generational shift happening in agentic coding right in front of us: techradar.com/pro/the-three-… PS I wrote it about 6 weeks ago, and so far, everything has continued to accelerate in that direction.

CEO of Zencoder, Andrew Filev, on Claude Sonnet 4.5: "It's very good at context management, which is one of the most important things to get these agents to do sizable tasks.” "They can just throw an idea at the model, and the model will automatically create the

Had a great conversation on The Information TV about what makes Sonnet 4.5 different. TL;DR - This model automates part of the work that expert AI engineers do today. It breaks down big tasks, writes specs, and manages context. It's similar to how reasoning models took

I remember the days when spam filters were terrible, and our inboxes were flooded with noise. Then Gmail came up with a decent filter and cleaned a massive chunk of that. Now, with AI SDRs in place, my inbox is total trash again. Unfortunately, the Gmail spam filtering team isn't

Haiku 4.5 is out. The model is remarkably capable — just six months ago, this level of performance would have been state-of-the-art on our internal benchmarks. Now it runs 4 times faster than Sonnet 4.5 at one third of the cost. This leap in performance and efficiency unlocks an

Andrew Ng has a point on evals that resonates with my current thinking: for complex agents, it's hard to build a 360-degree eval from scratch, but it is possible and easy to start capturing failure modes and build "regression evals" deeplearning.ai/the-batch/impr…
