    Crown Jewels In, Crown Jewels Out – The Hidden Risk of AI with Devan Shah (IBM)

    How do you secure data in the age of Agentic AI? 🤖🔐 In this episode of ShipTalk, Dewan Ahmed sits down with Devan Shah, Chief Architect of Data Security at IBM, to explore the massive shift from traditional DevOps to AI-infused software delivery. Devan shares his journey from being a chef to leading an "army" of 450+ developers at IBM. They dive deep into the technical bedrock of IBM’s "OnePipeline" (built on Tekton and Argo CD), the rise of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), and the architectural principles required to ship AI features without compromising security or compliance. If you are an architect, SRE, or developer advocate trying to navigate the "Crown Jewels In, Crown Jewels Out" risk of LLMs, this episode is for you.

    CTO Predictions for 2026: How AI Will Change Software Development (with Harness Field CTO Nick Durkin)

    In this special predictions episode of ShipTalk, host Dewan Ahmed (Principal Developer Advocate, Harness) sits down with Nick Durkin, Field CTO at Harness, to unpack what’s actually coming in 2026—beyond the hype. They explore whether we’re heading toward the first AI-caused production meltdown, how much trust we should place in AI "confidence," and why many teams may face a wave of AI-driven tech debt before they find balance. Nick shares why the future isn’t about more tools or more gates, but about policy in the pipeline, guardrails instead of roadblocks, and teams finally operating with a shared rulebook. The conversation also dives into: Why DevSecOps may finally go mainstream in 2026How MLOps, agents, and prompts become first-class delivery artifactsThe real risks behind prompt injection, model tampering, and shadow AIWhether AI agents become coworkers—or chaosWhat developer experience looks like when IDEs start to feel like chat windowsHow engineers and teams can stay employable and relevant in an AI-native worldThis episode is pragmatic, optimistic, and grounded in real-world delivery experience—perfect for engineers, tech leads, architects, and executives navigating the next phase of AI-driven software delivery. Listen in for a CTO’s clear-eyed predictions on AI, DevSecOps, and what it really takes to ship safely at speed in 2026.

    Beyond the Magic Box: Solving AI Hallucinations with Precision RAG (with Evgeny Ilinykh)

    In this episode of the ShipTalk Podcast, host Dewan Ahmed (Principal Developer Advocate at Harness) sits down with Evgeny Ilinykh (Founder of GuidedMind.ai and former Tesla Engineering Manager) to move past the AI hype and get into the engineering reality of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). If your AI agents are hallucinating, the problem probably isn't your model—it’s your retrieval layer. Evgeny breaks down how to turn the "black box" of LLMs into a transparent, production-ready system that developers can actually trust. What we cover: - The Death of Deterministic Software: Moving from hardcoded paths to agentic AI logic. - The "Dark Spots" of Vector Space: Why hallucinations are actually retrieval failures. - Contextual Retrieval: Insights into how system-level context changes the game for accuracy. - Scaling to Production: Solving the "dirty work" of messy PDFs, table parsing, and chunking. - Standardizing AI Delivery: Will RAG become as common as CI/CD in the modern dev stack?

    Shipping Practical AI: How to Build Real-World ML for 2D Drawings (with Marina Petzel)

    In this episode of Ship Talk, host Dewan Ahmed (Principal Developer Advocate, Harness) sits down with Marina Petzel, Senior ML Engineer and AI Productivity Lead at Autodesk, to unpack what it actually looks like to ship AI into long-lived, production software. Marina shares her journey from classic predictive analytics to computer vision and LLMs, and how her team brings intelligent features like Smart Blocks in AutoCAD from ideation to prototype to production on a tight yearly release cadence. She breaks down the often ignored parts of ML work: data pipelines, infrastructure, UX fit, and safety testing, and explains why “garbage in, garbage out” is a law of nature, not just a cliché. They also dive into AI for developer productivity, multi-agent workflows, red-teaming and prompt safety, and how every engineer, regardless of seniority, can start using AI as a genuine skill multiplier. Marina closes with concrete advice for aspiring ML engineers: build more, read less, follow your curiosity, and share your work publicly so your visibility compounds over time.

    Beyond Dashboards: How AI Is Redefining Developer Productivity with Adeeb Valiulla

    In this episode of ShipTalk, host Dewan Ahmed sits down with Adeeb Valiulla, a leader in developer productivity and engineering excellence at Harness, to explore how AI is transforming the very definition of software productivity. Adeeb shares his journey from building early engineering metrics systems at Sensormatic to leading developer efficiency initiatives for Fortune 500 companies. Together, they unpack how AI is changing what it means to be “productive” — from measuring outcomes instead of outputs, to ensuring governance, trust, and quality at AI scale. If you’ve ever wondered how frameworks like DORA, SPACE, and Flow adapt in an AI-driven world, or how to separate “AI-powered” hype from truly “AI-driven” value, this conversation is for you. If you'd like to appear on one of our episodes, connect with Dewan. --- Adeeb's Work: 1. Comparative Analysis of Engineering Performance and Experience Frameworks: DORA, SPACE, HEART, and Beyond. 2.

    AI for Security vs Security for AI: From IBM Master Inventor to Microsoft AI Architect

    Dewan Ahmed sits down with Fatih Bulut, AI Architect at Microsoft and former IBM Research Master Inventor, to separate hype from reality in AI for software delivery and cybersecurity.  Fatih clarifies AI for security vs security for AI, walks through detection engineering as real software engineering, and explains proactive defense across an attack’s phases. He digs into the hard part of shipping: execution, product alignment, and tight feedback loops with customers. On code generation, he calls out failure modes like plausible but wrong outputs and hard coded shortcuts, and raises open questions about responsibility and auditability when AI writes code.  The pair map AI across the SDLC, from pipeline generation and troubleshooting to vulnerability triage, then explore transformer limits with huge telemetry and why verifiable tasks such as code and math are near term wins. Fatih remains bullish on AI where outputs are testable and where context usage actually works at scale.  Connect with Fatih on LinkedIn.
