Guess who's finally back from an epic honeymoon adventure through Japan and Korea?! Bradley rejoins Bennett, and after a two-and-a-half-week AI news whirlwind, we've got A LOT to unpack. We're kicking things off by calling out the "Propaganda We're Not Falling For," tackling everything from overhyped agent overload and why some popular frameworks aren't cutting it for us, to whether every new AI feature is truly a revolution or just good PR. Plus, we'll catch you up on the flurry of announcements from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google that dropped while Brad was offline – think new coding assistants, intriguing hardware partnerships, and the ever-evolving landscape of AI models.
But the real deep dive this episode? Bradley's been putting Anthropic's Claude Code through its paces, and folks, the experience has been nothing short of mind-blowing. We're talking about taking a $200/month AI coding partner and unleashing it on a seriously complex part of a real-world app – thousands of lines of code, major refactoring, and even building custom MCP servers for AI-driven testing! Is this the future of solo development? Can an AI truly become your most productive (and surprisingly insightful) coding intern? We're sharing the nitty-gritty, the jaw-dropping successes, and what this level of AI capability means for anyone building software today. Buckle up, because the AI tools are evolving faster than ever!
