In this podcast, Michael Stiefel spoke to Scott Hanselman about developing new software engineers when artificial intelligence agents are doing most of the work on which junior developers were trained. Hanselman suggests the software industry should adopt a preceptorship model similar to the nursing profession.

Alex Porcelli discusses the critical gap in enterprise AI: non-deterministic output and lack of accountability in high-stakes decisions. He shares how integrating DMN decision models with LLMs, agent skills, and NeMo guardrails creates auditable, deterministic agentic architectures - allowing business leaders to own decision logic while engineers maintain robust architectural governance.

Cassie Shum discusses why knowledge graphs serve as a critical foundation for agentic systems. Moving beyond basic RAG, she explains 4 practical architectural patterns: context bundling, decision provenance, code as truth, and agent visibility. She demonstrates an engineering harness built on a knowledge graph to streamline feedback loops, optimize token usage, and maintain system reliability.

LinkedIn has published details of the training infrastructure behind its AI-powered job search, describing a multi-teacher distillation pipeline that compresses knowledge from large teacher models into a compact 0.6B-parameter ranking model.

InfoQ expands its online certification portfolio with new AI Engineering and Organizational Architecture cohorts, giving senior practitioners a confidential peer group to pressure-test production AI, platform, team design, and architecture decisions.

In this episode, Thomas Betts and Adi Polak talk about the need for context engineering when interacting with LLMs and designing agentic systems. Prompt engineering techniques work with a stateless approach, while context engineering allows AI systems to be stateful.

Anthropic introduces a three-agent harness separating planning, generation, and evaluation to improve long-running autonomous AI workflows for frontend and full-stack development. Industry commentary highlights structured approaches, iterative evaluation, and practical methods to maintain coherence and quality over multi-hour AI coding sessions.

GitHub has launched a continuous AI-powered workflow to manage accessibility feedback at scale. Using GitHub Actions, Copilot, and Models APIs, the system centralizes reports, analyzes WCAG compliance, and automates triage while maintaining human validation. Teams now resolve feedback faster, improving inclusion and cross-functional collaboration.
