Ryan welcomes back the mighty Scott Hanselman, VP of Developer Community at Microsoft, for a crossover episode about all things vibe coding.

In the age of AI, being able to make applications and create code has never been easier. But is it any good? Here's what vibe coding is like for someone without technical skills.

Ryan is joined by David Hsu, CEO and founder of Retool, to explore how AI is transforming the role of a software developer into a software architect, the increasing accessibility of coding for non-engineers, and the importance of placing guardrails and higher-level programming primitives on AI coding assistants.

Ryan talks with Deepak Singh, VP of Developer Agents and Experiences at AWS and lead at Kiro, about spec-driven development in a vibe coding world. They explore how AI tools have evolved from autocomplete to sophisticated agents that can write code based off of just specs, and how AWS has pioneered spec-driven development through their Kiro agent.

Quinn Slack, CEO and co-founder of Sourcegraph, joins the show to dive into the implications of AI coding tools on the software engineering lifecycle. They explore how AI tools are transforming the work of developers from syntax-focused tasks to higher-level design and management roles and how AI will integrate into enterprise environments.

On this episode, Ryan chats with Vish Abrams, chief architect at Heroku, about all the work that needs to be done after you’ve vibe coded your dream app.
