[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?
