  1. Why AI Agents Won’t Replace Engineers

    Why AI Agents Won’t Replace Engineers

    The narrative is setting in: software engineering is dead. According to the leadership at Anthropic, the profession has less than a year before AI agents take the wheel completely. But for the applied polymaths actually doing the work, the reality is far more complex. In this deep dive, we dismantle the hype to find the signal. We analyze the historical parallels of the printing press and the compiler—tools that didn't destroy jobs, but radically shifted the barrier to entry. The code itself is becoming a commodity, but the "Why" and the "How" have never been more valuable. We explore why "vibe coding" fails at scale, why the cost of maintenance is the hidden killer of AI-generated software, and why the industry is pivoting from "writing syntax" to "context engineering." If you are an artist, scientist, or technologist, this is your blueprint for survival. The future won't be built by those who can write the fastest boilerplate; it will be owned by those with the taste to curate it and the architectural vision to scale it. Join us as we explore the "Application Layer"—the final frontier where human judgment reigns supreme. Chapters: (00:00) Hello! (01:55) Why software engineering evolves rather than dies. (02:50) Cyclical nature of centralized versus distributed computing. (03:55) AI builds fast, but humans must maintain. (11:00) How compilers went from impossible to trivial. (14:20) Solving solved problems versus creating novel value. (15:40) Bold claims often mask incremental model improvements. (20:30) The application layer is the next frontier. (23:40) Future engineers need taste, judgment, and experience.

    Clawdbot? Moltbot? OpenClaw? Stop Outsourcing Your Judgment to AI!

    The digital landscape is shifting from chat windows to direct execution. In this episode, we dismantle the hype surrounding "OpenClaw" and the new wave of autonomous agents that run locally on your machine. While the ability to self-execute tasks sounds revolutionary, the reality involves exposed API keys, zero guardrails, and a "Wild West" security environment that most users aren't ready for. We then pivot to the bizarre phenomenon of "MoltBook"—a Reddit clone populated entirely by AI bots conversing with one another. Is this the "Boltzmann Brain" of the digital age, or just a massive waste of electricity? We explore the friction between innovation and utility, debating whether these infinite loops of generative mimicry actually produce value or just noise. Finally, we tackle the core competency of the future creative: Judgment. AI can execute, but it cannot discern. We discuss why you must never outsource your decision-making, how to experiment without breaking your bank (or your OS), and why the "Spectator" mindset is the death of true craft. Stop watching the algorithm; start mastering the tool. Chapters: (00:00) Hello! (01:36) OpenClaw: Autonomous AI agents explained. (04:54) The security risks of unprotected API keys. (09:08) Why you must not outsource judgment to AI. (15:34) How agents "hack" memory using context windows. (20:06) MoltBook: The futility of AI-only social networks. (25:31) The neurological filter: Human brain vs. AI inference. (34:39) The Spectator Problem: Passive entertainment vs. active innovation.

    Stop Coding, Start Managing Abstraction (How I Built and Shipped an App in 6 hrs)

    Stop writing lines of code, start AI Coding. Andrew shipped a fully functional, international app in just six hours—not by typing syntax, but by managing a "murder" of AI agents, AI Coding. In this episode, we dismantle the "Vibe Coding" trend and replace it with the "Abstraction Workflow," a new method where creativity and judgment replace technical rote memory. Learn how to stop coding and start architecting. The era of "Vibe Coding" is already over. If you are still trying to tab-complete your way through scripts, you are working too slow. We are witnessing the shift from the "Creator Economy" to the "Practitioner Economy," where the barrier to building software has collapsed—if you know how to manage the machine. Andrew breaks down exactly how he built and shipped "Your Pods"—a complex podcast player with Apple Watch and CarPlay support—in a single afternoon. This isn't a discussion about prompts; it is a technical blueprint for a new way of working. We explore the Abstraction Workflow, a method of splitting codebases by context rather than feature to keep AI agents from hallucinating. We discuss why you should treat LLMs not as text editors, but as a "murder of agents" with specific roles, and why "Judgment" has replaced "Syntax" as the most valuable skill in engineering. Whether you are a senior engineer looking to accelerate or a creative with zero coding experience, this episode equips you with the mental models to build software at the speed of thought. Tune in to deconstruct the future of development. Time Stamps: (00:51) Shipping a functional app in six hours. (09:06) Why "Vibe Coding" is already obsolete. (15:55) Breaking code into context-based abstractions. (20:23) Managing a "murder" of AI agents. (25:22) When AI suggests creating race conditions.

    Idea to App Store in 6 Hours

    Andrew built a fully functional iOS app in six hours using AI—and got it approved by Apple on the first try. This isn't just about coding; it's a fundamental shift in how we build. We explore why the era of the "Individual Contributor" is ending and why the future belongs to those who can manage AI agents like a human team. Stop writing syntax. Start directing the machine. The barrier to software creation has officially collapsed. In this episode, Andrew breaks down how he built, polished, and published a paid iOS app to the Apple App Store in under six hours of active work. He didn’t write the code line-by-line; he managed the AI that did. We deconstruct the specific mental shift required to move from a "Coder" to an "AI Manager." We analyze how the traditional product cycle—prototyping, testing, and ticket grooming—has been rendered obsolete by "Vibe Coding," a workflow that allows for real-time feature building during user feedback sessions. Andrew reveals the specific management techniques that allowed him to bypass weeks of development hell and how he got AI-generated code past Apple’s notorious review process on the first attempt. The technical moat is gone. The new advantage is your ability to direct synthetic intelligence with creative precision. If you are still obsessing over syntax, you are already behind. Join us as we blueprint the future of the engineering workflow. Time Stamps: (00:00:55) Human creativity is now the number one skill. (00:03:00) Shifting from coding to managing AI agents. (00:05:30) Building a working prototype in three sentences. (00:08:45) Developing an iOS app in four hours. (00:11:56) Treating AI chatbots like employee delegates. (00:19:40) Rapid prototyping is now instant implementation. (00:23:23) Getting AI code App Store approved immediately. (00:28:17) Why non-creative workers will get left behind.

    We’re Over Calling it AI Slop

    Is using an LLM to write documentation "cheating," or is it just the modern version of using Spellcheck? We cover: The Linux Controversy: Why open-source communities are rejecting AI, and why they might be fighting gravity. (https://www.theregister.com/2026/01/08/linus_versus_llms_ai_slop_docs) The Liability Trap: Using the Waymo "Trolley Problem" to explain why humans must remain the "Architects of Liability," even if they aren't the architects of the code. The Medical Test: A thought experiment on trust—would you care if a robot saved your life, or only if it made a mistake? Vibe Coding: The rise of non-technical programming and the security nightmares hiding inside "easy" code. The Bottom Line: Creativity is your ultimate advantage, but clinging to "manual labor" as a badge of honor is a survival strategy for the past. We strip away the drama to give you the mental models needed to navigate the age of synthetic media. Time Stamps: (00:00) Linus Torvalds bans AI documentation from Linux. (01:03) Why the tool matters less than the output. (02:22) Photoshop, Art, and the "Fake" debate. (06:05) Thought Experiment: AI vs. Human Medical Diagnosis.

  6. Building in the Void: From Zero-G Manufacturing to AI Agents

    Building in the Void: From Zero-G Manufacturing to AI Agents

    Gravity is a constraint—both for manufacturing and for your mindset. In this episode, we dismantle the physics of innovation, exploring why the next generation of computer chips must be built in space to survive. We also ground this futuristic vision in the practical tools you need today, breaking down Google’s Antigravity IDE and why the shift from “coder” to “architect” is the only way to survive the AI boom. Stop planning your year; start engineering your workflow. Most New Year’s resolutions fail because they focus on the vision rather than the execution. As we enter 2026, the gap between having an idea and building it has never been smaller—but the environment where we build is changing radically. In this episode, we explore two frontiers that are redefining what it means to be a "maker." First, we look up at the emerging "Space Forge" economy. We deconstruct why manufacturing in microgravity isn't just sci-fi vanity—it’s a logistical necessity for creating the atomic precision required for next-gen computing. We analyze how removing gravity solves defects that are physically impossible to fix on Earth. Then, we bring that concept back down to the code editor. We go hands-on with Google’s Antigravity environment for Gemini. Is it a gimmick, or does it finally offer the "Architect" workflow that developers have been waiting for? We compare the user experience directly against Claude Code, analyzing where the "Chat vs. IDE" war is heading and which tool gives the polymath practitioner the ultimate leverage. Topics Deconstructed: The Execution Trap: Why "Vision" is cheap and "Milestones" are the currency of 2026. Zero-G Fabrication: How microgravity unlocks higher yields for semiconductor manufacturing. The "Architect" Workflow: Moving from writing syntax to directing multi-agent AI systems. Gemini vs. Claude: A forensic look at context management and UI friction in the latest IDEs. The future belongs to those who can build in any environment—whether that's low earth orbit or a high-latency code base. Join us as we blueprint the tools you need to build the future. Time Stamps: (00:00) Committing to weekly live stream experiments. (01:42) Why annual resolutions fail without milestones. (05:22) Fabricating computer chips in microgravity. (09:17) Solving logistics with hyper-local space manufacturing. (12:00) Reviewing Google’s Antigravity coding environment. (15:34) Comparing Claude Code versus Gemini workflows.

    2026 Predictions for Art, Science, and Tech | EP 51 | 3reate

    The digital landscape of 2025 was defined by a paradox: vanishing barriers to entry but exponential barriers to attention. As we enter 2026, the era of edutainment and variety shows is over, replaced by a demand for deep, specific expertise? This episode is designed for the applied polymath—the practitioner who operates at the high-stakes intersection of vision, method, and scale . Andrew and Nathan to explore why the Practitioner Economy will dominate the next twelve months. We dive deep into three critical shifts: Artistic Individualism: Why the "AI slop" wave is triggering a retreat into "smart niches" and original IP. Scientific Friction: The widening gap between breakthrough research, such as Alzheimer’s reversal, and a public psyche defined by mistrust. The Tech ROI Reckoning: Why we predict a major Fortune 100 player will finally call bullsh-t on massive AI investments that lack clear returns. 3reate is your field guide to this volatile intersection. We don't just spark curiosity; we equip you with the mental models to build the future. Stop consuming the noise and join our community of hidden operators today.

    3reate Podcast Turns 2 | EP 50 | 3reate

    Two years ago, 3reate began with a bold hypothesis: that creativity is the universal solvent for the world's most complex problems. As we celebrate our second anniversary, host Andrew steps into a rare solo cast to peel back the curtain on the journey so far. This isn't just a celebration; it’s a manifesto for the "doers"—the practitioners who build the future while others merely describe it. In this episode, we explore the evolution of the show from a small audio stream to a visual-first platform with five-digit monthly engagement. Andrew dives deep into the core philosophy that creativity is a trainable skill, comparable to physical training, and explains why the podcast is shifting toward a "Practitioner Economy" model. By focusing on the "Secret Masters" of innovation—those too busy doing the work to seek the spotlight—3reate provides a unique blueprint for navigating a volatile technical landscape. Looking ahead to 2026, the strategy is sharpening. We are increasing our interview cadence and moving toward live, interactive YouTube sessions where you, the audience, can participate in the synthesis. We’re also previewing our 2025-2026 transition, including upcoming predictions across the pillars of Art, Science, and Tech.
