Engineering & simulationClaude 4 (Sonnet)
The speaker's team integrated the new Claude 4 model into their software platform, which automatically improved the software's performance and defect detection capabilities without requiring code changes from the developers.
“my team, at Bill Pass is already using this in their coding. … we use Claude behind the scenes, all of our customers are actually getting access to this behind the scenes. As soon as we get a new model like this, we can just plug it in and our software that we've built, we don't have to change anything, just gets better overnight.”
Engineering & simulationGoogle Stitch
Google released a tool called Stitch that allows developers to generate user interfaces via prompts, aiming to improve the visual quality of apps built through 'vibe coding' compared to previous methods.
“What Google has dropped is a tool called Stitch. And this is a way to build the UI in a better way. So I think that might actually do the code under the hood as well. But there are so many other apps that were specializing in doing this, and Google just comes out, releases this, and this will probably become the standard.”
Engineering & simulationGoogle Deep Research5 minutes
The host used Google Deep Research to generate a KPI dashboard for tracking podcast growth across multiple platforms in five minutes, demonstrating the capability to build functional software on demand.
“Google jumped straight into fire base and just knocked it up in, in 5 minutes and it was ready to use. Had all the dropdowns, drop your YouTube in here, drop your meta in here. So it's not automated yet. But yeah, I mean, this is starting to get, like you said, exciting and scary.”
Running the companyDen (AI Agents)
The speaker created an AI agent within the Den platform that automatically researches topics, connects to external tools like ChatGPT Deep Research, and prepares a podcast run sheet, reducing manual preparation work.
“I've created an agent, literally with a prompt. And what I've told the agent to do is it should look at the run sheet and look at some of the ideas, it should then go off and connect into ChatGPT deep research and the web scraping tool. … And then it's going to work in the background, as an agent, to prepare our round sheet for us.”
Running the companyGrok
The host used Grok to analyze data on Australia's natural resource reserves and calculate the potential wealth per citizen, demonstrating the use of AI for complex data synthesis and financial modeling.
“So I did all the exercise with Grock and I said, Grock. Based on all the information I've given you, what are the total reserves, we think of the minerals, the energy resources, including renewables and oil and gas, in and around Australia. So within our land and seas, Grot came back to me with a few numbers that I thought were interesting.”
