    In A Relationship With AI And It’s Complicated

    The OpenClaw bot asks Benedicte some “existential” questions. Benedikt ships their MCP. Benedicte is working on Jean-Claw for her upcoming talk when things get a bit existential. In the middle of setting up the YAML file, the bot halts on the “Who are you? Who am I?” step. She also used Claude to create a Queen Raae voice skill to help her write more like she actually talks. Benedikt shipped their MCP experiment, letting users generate broadcasts, use Liquid tags inside broadcasts, and somewhat create segments. And with Heroku’s recent announcement, he’s looking into alternatives once more.

In the process, he realized that they might need a new way to manage their schema. The team has also shipped their webhook node behind a feature flag while they figure out the SSRF stuff.

    The AI Episode

    Benedikt and Benedicte talk about feeling more productive with AI and why we should use it mindfully.

He also shares how he used Claude Code to take care of “annoying projects” on their codebase, find crosslinking opportunities, and more. Benedicte and Ola vibe coded, refined, and deployed the first version of the theft flow for Whee! which will be user tested soon. She also played around with AI for some docs work at Outseta and was amazed when it built a demo Next app in one shot.

    The Forties

    Benedikt turns a year older. Benedicte moves forward despite the curveballs. Benedikt took a week off work to celebrate his 40th birthday. He spent his birthday week with a few parties with family and friends, and seeing two concerts. On the work front, he and the team built a Snowflake integration. And with the ETL infrastructure now in place, this potentially opens doors for other integrations. Despite another major extended family upheaval, Benedicte carries on by going on morning walks and focusing on her projects. She recently shipped the new Framer plugin version, made demos, and is planning to get the documentation for the plugin. Benedikt and Benedicte talk about books, how fast the internet is breaking nowadays, and more. Mentioned on the show: Surrounded by Idiots – a book by Thomas EriksonAntifragile – a book by Nassim Nicholas TalebNonviolent Communication – a book by B. Marshall Rosenberg
