Your AI platform isn't mature — here's what is
Your AI platform isn't mature — here's what is Jul 22, 2026 00:53:02 I keep hearing 'we're building an AI platform' from enterprises. Most are stitching together demos. Thomson Reuters has been doing AI for 30 years. I sat down with Laura Skylaki (VP AI Engineering, Thomson Reuters) at AWS Summit London — and the gap between what they're doing vs. what most companies call 'AI maturity' is striking. In this episode, Laura breaks down how Thomson Reuters built an ent
The Delivery Gap: Why 96% of Your AI Code Is Waste
The Delivery Gap: Why 96% of Your AI Code Is Waste Jul 15, 2026 01:07:45 Brenn reached out via LinkedIn to share his experience with AI-driven software development and his new book, The Delivery Gap. Romain read a copy during a business trip and found it deeply aligned with how he guides customers through their AI transformation — and discovered a few new angles worth exploring, including a convergence on cost tracking that maps directly to Amazon's internal cost to se
What are MCP apps and why should you care?
What are MCP apps and why should you care? Jul 8, 2026 00:50:36 Most MCP tools today return text. But what if your agent could render a chart, a form, or a full dashboard right inside the chat? That's what MCP apps do — and they're already live on ChatGPT, Claude, and Amazon Quick. Romain sits down with Luigi Pederzani, co-founder of Manufact (the company behind mcp-use, 10K+ GitHub stars), to explore MCP apps — the first official extension of the MCP protocol

KiroGraph: How a Local Code Graph Saves 80% of Your AI Tokens
KiroGraph: How a Local Code Graph Saves 80% of Your AI Tokens Jun 17, 2026 01:06:42 Davide de Sio built KiroGraph as a personal side project to stop his AI agent from burning through credits just searching files. It turned into a community-driven, open-source MCP server that gives Kiro (and other AI agents) a semantic map of your codebase — reducing token usage by up to 80%. We dive into the architecture, security, and modules, how everything runs 100% locally, and how the AWS Co
Cutting Through the AI Developer Hype
Cutting Through the AI Developer Hype Jun 10, 2026 01:20:22 An honest, no-filter conversation about where developers actually stand with AI today.

Why Your Agent Evaluations Will Fail You (and How to Fix Them Before Production) Jun 3, 2026 00:44:06 Anthropic deprecated Sonnet 3.5. Some of Xelix's pipelines migrated smoothly. Others broke — and customers noticed within hours. What separated the two? Evaluation. Paul Solomon and James Price Farr have spent 5+ years building AI systems that process millions of invoices for enterprise customers. In this episode, they share the evaluation-first framework that now saves them every time a model cha
5 Quality Gates That Let You Ship 250% Faster with AI Coding Agents

Dark Factories: Why Your AI Coding Setup Is Already Outdated May 20, 2026 00:49:10 You're using Copilot. Maybe you've tried Cursor or Claude Code. But what if that's already the tail end of the AI wave? In this episode, Romain sits down with Christian Weichel, CTO and co-founder of Ona (formerly Gitpod), to explore 'dark factories' — autonomous AI agents that pick up work, write code, open PRs, and ship fixes while you sleep. No laptop required. Chris shares how his team of ~20
