Your AI Agents Don't Need You Anymore
Notas do episódio
This week, Robbie and Adam sip on Oak and Eden Bourbon with Amburana Spiral and dive into building software that actually works, AI code reviews that roast your PRs, and whether engineering is dead or just hiding behind a gauntlet loop. They dig into Doorway, the ADHD task helper app that stops you from forgetting why you walked into a room, dark factory workflows where agents grind while you watch, iterative AI loops that beat the slop out of your code until it's good, Creator Micro unboxing and personal software revolution, Muse Glimmer as the jealous local model that disses Claude, and why coding dopamine is gone but engineering still matters. Along the way, they debate whether taste still matters when everyone has the same LLMs, speech to text versus typing, robotic lawnmowers named Jeff that can't find the street, CSS signals and scroll axis liberation, Oak and Eden custom whiskey builder as the first MCP enabled agentic experience, Big Red cinnamon bear claws with coconut sprinkles, mulled cider vibes and Christmas in a glass, gauntlet loops versus slip and slides, adversarial reviews that always find something, punk ass versus Glimmer in a jealous AI showdown, watermarks on AI images getting stripped the same day, free tokens at cafes instead of free Wi-Fi, personal private software living on your home network, discovering your 3D printer's API and making a dashboard in five minutes, design patterns versus laying bricks, and why the gang of four matters more than ever.
