Creating checkpoints by gaslighting a Postgres database

Ryan welcomes Bryan Clark, director of product for Lakebase at Databricks, to discuss what happens when AI agents become the primary creators and users of databases; why agents are “sloppy” about cleaning up infrastructure; and how database branching, scale-to-zero, and centralized access control can help teams keep up with agent-driven development. Episode notes: Databricks Lakebase [https://www.databricks.com/product/lakebase] is a Postgres-compatible operational database built around fast branching, separated compute and storage, and tight integration with the Databricks lakehouse.

Making the OWASP top ten in the vibe code era

Ryan welcomes back Tanya Janca, now part of the OWASP Top 10 team, to discuss what changed in the latest OWASP Top 10 release, how the list shifted from “outdated components” to a broader software supply chain focus, and why they added memory safety and vibe-coding as awareness items.  Episode notes: The OWASP Top 10 for 2025 [https://owasp.org/Top10/2025/] is the latest standard awareness document for developers and web application security that represents a broad consensus about the most critical security risks to web applications.

From the floor of HumanX, Ryan welcomes Songyee Yoon, managing partner at Principal Venture Partners (PVP), to chat about AI development outside the US, from the need to adapt models to local languages and culture to the challenges of the global supply-chain for things like semiconductors to how venture capital is looking at international AI companies.  Episode notes:  PVP [https://www.principalvc.com/] supports early stage, AI-native companies shaping the future of how we live and work.

The find out stage of AI is just supply chain and password protection

In this two-for-one special recorded at HumanX, Ryan is joined by Dataiku’s Florian Douetteau to chat about the governance, orchestration, and data requirements for serious agentic systems and 1Password’s Nancy Wang for a conversation on making agent swarms secure. Ryan first catches up with Dataiku co-founder and CEO Florian Douettea to chat serious agentic systems and why they require intentional frameworks, orchestration, governance, and reusable, documented data products. Then, 1Password’s CTO Nancy Wang returns to the show to discuss why current identity standards don’t fit the new world of agents, especially when ephemeral agent swarms make attribution to a single user difficult.  Episode notes: Dataiku [https://www.dataiku.com/] orchestrates data stacks and lets you create analytics, models, and agents.  Florian previously appeared [https://stackoverflow.blog/2025/04/22/visually-orchestrating-data-diagnostics-but-platform-agnostic/] on this program in an episode recorded at the last HumanX conference.  1Password [https://1password.com] keeps your credentials secure through end-to-end encryption, zero-knowledge architecture, and more. You can learn more about building secure agent swarms at their blog [https://1password.com/blog/how-to-build-secure-agent-swarms-that-power-autonomous-systems].  Nancy Wang previously appeared [https://stackoverflow.blog/2026/03/27/prevent-agentic-identity-theft/] on the pod in March 2026.  Connect with Florian on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/fdouetteau/].

Do you have what it takes to run AI in production?

From the floor of HumanX, Ryan Donovan is joined by Peter Salanki, CTO and co-founder of CoreWeave, to chat about what it really takes to run AI in production; the growing importance of observability, utilization, and scheduling; and Peter’s advice for avoiding the trap of over-architecting too early.  Episode note: CoreWeave [https://www.coreweave.com/] is the AI-native platform cloud that’s purpose-built for AI, combining next-generation infrastructure and intelligent tools to power the world’s most complex AI workloads.
