One is our Tech Consultancy side, where we have our highly technical teams working with clients, ensuring they never miss a deadline again!
The other side is our media side, where we have podcasts, a YouTube channel filled with workshops, and more!
What should drive #AI model selection: quality, speed, cost, privacy, or the type of work?
In this State of AI conversation, @robocell explains why the real cost of AI goes far beyond inference and token pricing. Human oversight, rework, and downstream business impact all shape the true ROI of a model choice.
Watch the complete State of AI livestream for the full discussion.
AI model menus are getting crowded.
This State of AI short asks a simple question: should every user pick a model, or should AI systems route work automatically?
The answer may depend on the job. Choice matters for hands-on work. Automation may need a smarter default.
Watch the full conversation.

Enterprise AI gets more useful when the tools people need are connected to the place where they already build.
@_malcolmadams explains how @IBM Bob brings access to IBM's ecosystem into a familiar development environment, helping reduce context switching while keeping enterprise architecture, security, and monitoring close at hand.

Building #AI agents is only part of the equation. Teams also need to understand what those agents change.
In this clip, @_malcolmadams explains how @IBM Bob combines agent-building workflows with analytics that can help teams track delivery impact, adoption, and cost. It is a useful reminder that AI development needs visibility, not just velocity.

The best @reactnative decisions are the ones that still hold up months after launch.
Join us September 30 for the State of #ReactNative panel with @groundcontrol, @ccheever, @mazenchami, @GantLaborde, @BrandonMathis, and Jake Krupski as they dig into architecture, performance, tooling, and long-term maintenance.
Bring your questions. Leave with ideas you can apply to your next build.

AI agents are starting to blur the old boundaries around engineering roles.
In this clip, @GroundControl shares what developers may spend more time doing as agents handle more implementation work: designing systems, supplying context, and validating results.

Part 2 of the Agent Control Plane series focuses on evidence at every handoff.
Before the next action runs, what should be validated, recorded, and surfaced to the team?
#AIQuality#AgentOrchestration#ProductionAI
In Part 1 of this Agent Control Plane series by @jonfontanez, the focus is clear boundaries: what agents can decide, where approvals are required, and how teams keep autonomy useful.
#AIAgents#AgentOrchestration#AI
The question is not whether #AI code beats human code. It is whether the workflow fits the problem.
@GroundControl breaks down why teams still need judgment, clear goals, and real ownership when agents are involved.

The best AI model for a creative task may not be the best one to run your Git commands.
Chris Griffing explains how Git mistakes can create retries, waste tokens, and add up across an engineering org.
