    S1E7 | Putting Local LLMs to Work: Real-World Use Cases with Rainer Hahnekamp & Murat Sari

    Rainer Hahnekamp and Murat Sari join The Ai Dev Craft Show to talk about what it really takes to run AI locally—and why more teams may start looking beyond frontier models for everyday development work. The conversation covers local models, privacy, cost control, hardware requirements, quantization, model selection, and where open-weight models are already good enough for real software development. They also dig into autonomous agent loops, review agents, security, testing, and how developers can build workflows that keep running without burning through a mountain of tokens. Rainer and Murat also explore the shift from prompt engineering to loop engineering—and why the developer’s role may increasingly be about designing, securing, monitoring, and reviewing the systems that do the implementation work.

    S1E6 | How to Keep Up with AI Without Losing Your Mind with Marina Wyss

    Marina Wyss joins The Ai Dev Craft Show to talk about what it really means to become an AI engineer—and how developers can keep learning without trying to chase every new model, tool, and trend. The conversation covers the difference between AI engineering and machine learning, why evaluation is becoming such an important skill, how software engineers can transition into AI-focused roles, and why strong fundamentals still matter more than knowing every new framework. Marina also shares practical advice for choosing what to learn, building useful side projects, navigating AI careers, and staying current without burning yourself out. You can also hear Marina at Ai Dev Craft in Las Vegas, where she’ll speak on Staying Current with AI Without Losing Your Mind and lead a workshop on Evaluating AI Systems. https://www.youtube.com/@MarinaWyssAI https://www.instagram.com/marina.wyss/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/marina-wyss/ www.marinawyss.com Join us weekly on The Ai Dev Craft Showas we discuss the rapidly changing AI-scape and how developers can adapt and excel.

    S1E5 | Are Software Factories the Future of AI Development? | Juri Strumpflohner

    Juri Strumpflohner joins The Ai Dev Craft Show to dig into the idea of AI-powered software factories—what they are, what they aren’t, and how close developers really are to building reliable agent-driven workflows. The conversation explores why code generation is no longer the biggest bottleneck, how verification and feedback loops are becoming more important, and what teams need in place before handing more work over to agents. They also cover context engineering, automation, agent memory, security, orchestration, and how tools like Nx and Polygraph can help agents work more effectively across complex codebases. Most importantly, the team looks at how developers can automate more of the repetitive work without removing human judgment from the process. https://juri.dev https://trypolygraph.com https://nx.dev https://metaharness.tools https://nx.dev/blog/software-factory-workflow-not-product https://herdr.dev https://x.com/juristr https://www.linkedin.com/in/juristr/ Join us weekly on The Ai Dev Craft Showas we discuss the rapidly changing AI-scape and how developers can adapt and excel.

    S1E4 | Still in the Loop: Developers in the Age of AI with Mike Hartington

    Mike Hartington is usually one of the people asking the questions on The Ai Dev Craft Show. This time, we put him in the hot seat. Mike joins the team to talk about how AI is changing software development—from better context and agent workflows to smarter IDEs, stronger guardrails, and more capable developer tools. The conversation digs into developer trust, code review, open standards, when agents are ready to take on more responsibility, and why experienced engineers still matter as AI becomes part of everyday development. Plus, a few hot takes on TypeScript, artisanal code, and whether you should scold your AI. https://upstash.com/blog/context7-llmtxt-cursor Join us weekly on The Ai Dev Craft Showas we discuss the rapidly changing AI-scape and how developers can adapt and excel.

    S1E3 | Agents, Guardrails, and AI That Works with Angie Jones

    Angie Jones joins The Ai Dev Craft Show to talk about what it really takes to move AI from experimentation into everyday engineering work. She shares lessons from helping thousands of developers adopt AI, why tools alone aren’t enough, and how teams can use agents, guardrails, open standards, and better context to build AI systems they can actually trust. The conversation also dives into MCP, WebMCP, agentic commerce, AI-powered workflows, and why developers need to think far beyond coding assistants as agents become a bigger part of how we work and interact with the web. You can also hear Angie live at Ai Dev Craft, October 27–28 in Las Vegas, where she’ll be joining other leaders shaping the future of AI development. https://x.com/techgirl1908 https://www.linkedin.com/in/angiejones/ https://chatgpt.com/work/ https://angiejones.tech/ leading AI enablement https://angiejones.tech/tools-arent-enough-scaling-ai-adoption-for-engineering-teams/ the agentic web https://aaif.io/blog/designing-websites-for-ai-agents-with-webmcp https://aaif.io/blog/how-does-agentic-commerce-work any and all things agents: https://aaif.io/author/angie-jones Join us weekly on The Ai Dev Craft Showas we discuss the rapidly changing AI-scape and how developers can adapt and excel.

    S1E2 | Building Smarter AI Interfaces with Manfred Steyer

    In this episode of The Ai Dev Craft Show, Manfred Steyer joins Jay Bell and Mike Hartington to explore the next evolution of AI-powered applications: interfaces that do more than return walls of text. They dig into generative and agentic UI, A2UI, AG-UI, MCP Apps, CopilotKit, and how developers can build AI experiences that dynamically generate useful, interactive interfaces while still maintaining control, consistency, and guardrails. Manfred also demonstrates real-world examples and discusses why emerging standards and protocols could be key to building AI applications that can evolve without constant rewrites.
