Booking Overview

This is a technical AI engineering interview podcast focused on foundation models, software development, AI agents, infrastructure, and the people building frontier systems; its external guests are typically founders, senior researchers, and technical executives from leading AI companies. Credible pitches would include AI company founders, principal engineers, research leaders, model builders, and experts with significant technical or commercial achievements, but booking difficulty is very high because the show favors prominent insiders with direct responsibility for important AI products and research.

As code that “just works” becomes easier to generate, this group may be the biggest prize of all — if you can get the agentic interface right.A key trend we have been tracking over at AINews is the absolute explosion in Codex usage this year, with MAU now up >10x from Jan 2026. Less than two weeks after their July 9th launch, OpenAI said ChatGPT Work and Codex had reached 10M users combined (as we cover in the pod, Codex...
