    James Arthur from ElectricSQL - agents are data, not compute (Heavybit DevGuild)

    In this episode, James Arthur, cofounder and CEO of ElectricSQL, joins us at Heavybit DevGuild. James explains why Electric has evolved from Postgres sync into data infrastructure for collaborative multi-agent systems. We talk about Durable Streams, Electric Agents, why agents should be modeled as long-lived data rather than compute, and why the future of agent infrastructure may look more like sync than sandboxes.

    Dave Fletcher from LeadDev: what engineering leaders want from AI

    In this episode, Dave Fletcher, cofounder of LeadDev, joins us at LDX3 London. Dave shares what LeadDev is seeing from thousands of engineering leaders, including what tools they are buying, how AI coding tools are changing downstream needs, and why observability, CI/CD, testing, reliability, and security are rising up the priority list. We also talk about how DevTools companies should message AI without triggering engineers’ b******t detectors, why specificity beats hype, and why in-person events are becoming more important as digital channels get crowded.

    Dennis Pilarinos from Unblocked: context for AI coding agents

    In this episode, Dennis Pilarinos, founder and CEO of Unblocked, joins us at LeadDev in London. Dennis explains why AI coding agents are only as good as the context they can access, and why every new agent is like a developer on their first day at a company. We talk about organizational context, token savings, MCP, stale documentation, knowledge graphs, permissions, identity across systems, and why the next big infrastructure layer for AI development may be the context layer.

    Ian Coe from Tonic.ai: synthetic data, AI training, and enterprise fine-tuning

    In this episode, Ian Coe, Co-founder and CEO of Tonic.ai, joins us at Heavybit DevGuild. Ian explains how Tonic started by helping developers create safe, realistic data for testing and development, and how that has expanded into AI model training, de-identification, and synthetic datasets for reinforcement learning. We discuss structured vs. unstructured data, healthcare and financial services use cases, Tonic Fabricate, Tonic Textual, fine-tuning, RL environments, and why enterprises are becoming more interested in training models on their own data.

    AI agents need cheaper sandboxes | Alex Jung from Unikraft (Heavybit DevGuild)

    In this episode, Alex Jung, cofounder and CPO of Unikraft, joins us at Heavybit DevGuild. Alex explains how Unikraft went from an academic unikernel project to a cloud platform for running highly efficient workloads. We talk about why unikernels can make applications faster, cheaper, and more secure, how AI agents are driving demand for sandboxed compute, and why the next wave of software generation may require a much more efficient cloud infrastructure layer.
