[0:00] I certainly don't read any code. I don't
[0:02] even know how to read any code.
[0:03] >> I thought you were actually an engineer.
[0:05] >> I'm not an engineer. I don't know what
[0:07] you call me. Biggest hack, like if you
[0:09] do one thing is my favorite tool for
[0:11] building anything is compound
[0:13] engineering. Somehow I'm able to ship
[0:15] things of value, which is crazy and
[0:17] weird and still blowing my mind.
[0:19] >> What if anyone could print their own CLI
[0:22] about anything? It found all the secret
[0:25] APIs by sniffing and it worked.
[0:30] Hey everyone, my guest today is Matt,
[0:32] who is arguably one of the best and most
[0:34] prolific AI builders that I know. And
[0:36] today he's going to walk us through his
[0:37] complete agentic AI, well, I guess
[0:40] agentic engineering system that went
[0:41] viral on X. And I think you know, from
[0:44] what I've seen from Matt, I think this
[0:45] interview is going to blow your mind.
[0:46] So, welcome Matt.
[0:47] >> Thank you. Excited to be here.
[0:49] >> Let's let's talk about your like you
[0:50] posted this article, right? That had
[0:52] like I think 20 tips or something about
[0:54] building with AI agents. Do you want to
[0:55] share an overview of it?
[0:56] >> Sure. Yeah, I'll I'll share the screen
[0:58] you made.
[0:59] >> All right.
[0:59] >> I didn't make the slide, you did. This
[1:01] is Matt's agentic engineering system. I
[1:02] think you should present this, Peter,
[1:04] since you made [laughter] this.
[1:05] >> No, no, I I I made this based on your
[1:07] article. So,
[1:08] I mean there's a lot of tips on here. A
[1:10] lot of tips on here, but like what what
[1:12] are some high-level themes, you know?
[1:13] Like maybe one high-level theme, like
[1:14] like
