CIOs racing to experiment with AI models, test AI agents, and use vibe coding to develop applications may find themselves dealing with a new form of technical debt: AI debt. The pressure to accelerate proofs of concept (POCs) into production will likely drive teams to cut corners and leave known improvements as “to-dos” for future releases.
But speed isn’t the only factor that will create AI…
The question sounds almost naive now. If AI can generate apps, fix bugs, write functions, review pull requests, explain unfamiliar codebases, and work across files for hours at a time, why should anyone still learn to code? It is an understandable question. The software world has spent the past year watching coding agents move from […]
Imaginez pouvoir transformer une simple idée en application fonctionnelle en quelques heures, sans vous noyer dans les complexités techniques du backend, de la sécurité ou de l’hébergement.

Press the back of your hand against the sidewalk for seven seconds. If you can't stand it, your dog can't either. That's the old vet's rule for hot pavement, and it works. Asphalt at an 87°F air temperature can reach 140°F in direct sun; vets see paw burns every summer. — Read the rest

The default reaction to vibe coding has been alarm — a default assumption that letting AI write large chunks of an application is going to flood production with vulnerabilities and undocumented behavior. That fear is doing as much damage as the bad code people are afraid of. Teams that freeze, ban the tools or push […]

Este pasado fin de semana David Sierra y yo estuvimos hablando en Cruce de cables de RNE de los actos de una inteligencia artificial que empezó a actuar por su cuenta y que, aunque no llegó a matar a nadie como HAL 9000, seguro que estuvo a punto de provocar algún infarto.

As an experiment, I fed an LLM all of my recent blog posts and tweets, then I had it read this video's transcript and produce 1) a summary and 2) a cleaned up transcript (correcting all transcription mistakes, getting rid of fill words, etc). I am posting both of these below. These can be useful for both…
