Inside Google AI Studio – Ammaar Reshi on Vibe Coding, Agent Swarms, and the Future of Building

What does it really take to put AI-powered building into the hands of millions and even billions – and what happens when everyone becomes a builder? How to do impossible things? Ammaar Reshi leads Product and Design at Google AI Studio (DeepMind). His path is unusual: from writing iPhone app reviews as a teenager, to Palantir, Brex, and ElevenLabs, to now designing how millions of people build apps with AI in Google. His philosophy is simple – nothing is impossible, it's just time and iteration, and you learn by making and showing your work openly. Ammaar has a great energy and insights into how to stay relevant with AI. *In this episode of Inference, we get into:* How "tap, tap, tap" prompting helps anyone write rich specs without knowing what an NPM package is Why the chat interface is evolving into something more like Slack – with daily standups with your agents The case for abstraction: hiding Firebase, OAuth, and the messy parts from people who just want to build Why speed (not intelligence) is now the real bottleneck for AI building The gap between a stunning demo and a product that serves billions How Ammaar is retraining Google itself – PMs across the company learning to vibe code and come up with amazing ideas Why Ammaar open-sources almost every demo he builds – and how that inspires the next wave of builders Ammaar's definition of AGI and lessons from Steve Jobs and Aurelius A conversation about building, designing, and the new relationship between humans and intelligent tools.

Eric Ries on Building Incorruptible Companies, AI Disruption, and the Future of Capitalism

Eric Ries, author of The Lean Startup, on why success corrupts companies faster than failure — and how AI will accelerate that collapse if builders don't protect their mission from day one. Eric Ries, entrepreneur and author of The Lean Startup and Incorruptible, argues that the more valuable a company becomes, the more pressure it faces to make money without creating real value. In other words: corruption in business doesn’t begin at the margins. It begins when builders stop protecting what made their company worth building in the first place. *In this episode of Inference, we get into:* - Why every successful company eventually becomes a target - What “corruption” really means in business - Why it’s always too early to protect your mission – until it’s too late - How trust and love become real competitive advantages, not just soft language - What Eric means by “financial gravity” and how companies get pulled into mediocrity - How mission-driven companies can “bend the light” and shape the economy around them - Why younger generations no longer trust institutions – and what builders must replace - How AI will accelerate institutional collapse if we use it only for cost-cutting - Whether AI could become a “mission guardian” inside companies - What it would mean to redefine capitalism around human flourishing We also talk about private equity, broken incentives, collapsing institutions, the civic consequences of replacing old systems with new technologies, and why the next generation of founders may have to rebuild far more than startups – including the trust infrastructure of society itself. This is a conversation about business, power, values, and what it takes to build something that can survive success without losing its soul. It’s truly a must watch. *Guest:* Eric Ries, entrepreneur, author of The Lean Startup and Incorruptible 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eries 🔗 X / Twitter: https://x.com/ericries 🔗 Incorruptible (new book): https://incorruptible.co 🔗 Lean Startup: https://leanstartup.co #EricRies #Incorruptible #LeanStartup #AI #AGI #Startups #Entrepreneurship #Capitalism #Trust #Innovation *Turing Post* is a newsletter about AI’s past, present, and future.

Will Everyone Become an AI Builder? Clem Delangue on Hugging Face, Agents, Local AI & Robotics

"The numbers of people who are going to be able to become AI builders is going to explode. It's gonna go from maybe a few hundred thousands or low millions… to maybe tens of millions, fifties of millions, maybe a hundred million at some point." Clément Delangue, co-founder and CEO of Hugging Face, believes we are entering a new phase of AI – one where building models, fine-tuning systems, running local AI, and even experimenting with robotics may no longer be limited to a small technical elite. His passion for open source is very contagious! I enjoyed chatting with him about: Why the next wave of AI builders won't be traditional engineers – and how that could push the field beyond slop toward biology, medicine, and climate What open source actually solves in cybersecurity – and why "safety" is often a cover story for business strategy Why lobbying against open source in the US would be a strategic mistake that could cost the country its AI leadership Why comparing open weights to closed APIs is irrelevant and why benchmarks miss what really matters What Hugging Face is learning as agents become a new kind of user How LeRobot and Reachy Mini are turning AI into something people lile Why training, fine-tuning, and post-training on your own data are becoming the real differentiators as building apps gets trivial What three months of paternity leave taught Clem We also talk about fear-based AI marketing, how public perception shifts the moment people build with AI, what's missing in robotics datasets, and why Clem keeps coming back to Camus' Sisyphus as a metaphor for being a founder right now A conversation about agency, openness, and what it means to democratize AI before it gets locked down.

AI Could Change Education Forever – Neeru Khosla Explains Why

Can AI actually help children learn better – or are schools still too slow, too scared, and too locked into the old system? Neeru Khosla, co-founder of CK-12 Foundation, believes this moment could become a turning point for education. After nearly two decades building free learning tools for students and teachers, she argues that AI is our chance to finally understand how students think, where they get stuck, and how to help each child learn in a way that works for them. *In this episode of Inference, we get into:* - Why prompting is not cheating, but a real learning skill - Why textbooks alone were never enough for deep understanding - What C means in CK-12 (it’s important!) - What Neeru learned from launching Flexi, CK-12’s AI tutor, now used by millions of students - Why standardized testing misses the most important part of learning - Why teachers need support, visibility, and confidence – not fear - Why AI literacy may become as fundamental as reading, writing, and math - How curiosity, mentorship, and community shape better learning outcomes - Why “attention is all you need” is no longer enough – and what we need now We also talk about public school inertia, philanthropy, core values when raising kids, and why Neeru believes AI should be used as augmented intelligence – not something to fear, but something to help humans grow. This is a conversation about education, equity, curiosity, and what it would really take to build a learning system that works for every child. Watch it. I’m really passionate about this topic and think that everyone should think and talk more about it. *Did you like the episode?
