My Jev Pi Durable Agent CURATES News: HYPE, FACT, or SIGNAL — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00What's up, engineers? Indie Dev Dan
- 0:01here. In the age of AI, there's already
- 0:04exponentially more noise than there is
- 0:07signal. Lots of clickbait,
- 0:07[clears throat] overhyped technology,
- 0:09and attention theft. You've likely
- 0:11already experienced this. I know I have.
- 0:13As an engineer, your time and attention
- 0:16are your most important resources. In
- 0:18this video, I want to show you how I
- 0:20shift through hype, facts, and signal
- 0:23with one ultra-important emerging piece
- 0:26of technology, proactive agents. But the
- 0:29meta lesson of what you'll see in this
- 0:31video is more important than the tools
- 0:34we'll use. The best engineers are
- 0:36transitioning from human in the loop to
- 0:38human near the loop to human out the
- 0:40loop. In, near, out. Why is this
- 0:42transition so important? It's because
- 0:45your agents can do 80% or more of
- 0:48everything you're doing right now
- 0:50autonomously [music]
- 0:51if you have the right tech in place. The
- 0:54problem is jumping from in loop straight
- 0:56to [music] out loop is a big challenge.
- 0:59That's where proactive agents come in.
- 1:01Proactive agents don't wait for you
- 1:03[music] to work. They work for you, then
- 1:05wait. And when you're ready, you step
- 1:07in, extract value, [music] give
- 1:09feedback, and move on. If you want to
- 1:11understand how you can up-level your
- 1:13agentic engineering by moving from
- 1:15[music] in, near, and out the loop,
- 1:17stick around and let's filter out the
- 1:19noise with the durable news agent.
- 1:27What if your agents never stop?
- 1:34So, let's pull up the application, and
- 1:36what you'll see here is a typical agent
- 1:38on the right, generative UI on the left.
- 1:41You can see here, our news agent has
- 1:43just caught the recent full announcement
- 1:46of Gemini for Argon getting released via
- 1:49their APIs. So, this is very powerful,
- 1:51but at first glance, you might think
- 1:53this isn't super special. Might just
- 1:54recreating ChatGPT here. Not so fast. We
- 1:57can access this agent in two ways. You
- 1:59could see here I'm not actually
- 2:00operating on my device. I'm actually
- 2:03looking at a URL on my M4 Mac mini
- 2:06device here. That means that the browser
- 2:08we're looking at is a detached client.
- 2:10Let's push this further. This is what a
- 2:12proactive agent really is. It's not
- 2:14waiting for me to work. If you open up
- 2:16my terminal, you can see something
- 2:17really amazing here. My agent in the
- 2:19terminal and in the browser, they are
- 2:21synced. Why are they synced? It's
- 2:23because these are both only clients. My
- 2:25real agent is operating on my M4 Mac
- 2:28mini. The browser and my terminal user
- 2:30interface here, they can see are both
- 2:32running GPT-6 Luna, are operating and
- 2:35connected to my durable agent running
- 2:38directly on the M4. So that's the power
- 2:41of what we have here. And you can see,
- 2:43you know, my hands are off the keyboard.
- 2:44Every minute here, every cron interval,
- 2:47work is just going to happen. It's not
- 2:49waiting for me to work. It's working for
- 2:51me and then waiting for the next
- 2:53execution to kick off. This agent is
- 2:55proactive. It's built into a system.
- 2:58It's more like a product that's
- 3:00operating without me, for me. It really
- 3:02is that simple. A proactive agent is a
- 3:05durable agent plus a trigger inside of a
- 3:07sandbox. We can quickly just spam
- 3:09refresh here and get all the latest
- 3:11information. This agent is durable. It's
- 3:13backed by SQLite databases. It's backed
- 3:15by any database you really want to. What
- 3:17we're operating now is just a client.
- 3:20It's a thin interface to an API which
- 3:23has the actual agent that's durable
- 3:25inside of it. This was the topic of last
- 3:27week's video where we looked at an
- 3:29on-call durable agent that was also
- 3:31proactive. And guess what? We're focused
- 3:33on it here again because this is a
- 3:35high-signal agentic piece of technology
- 3:38that's critical for advancing from in
- 3:40the loop, which is what this is, to near
- 3:41the loop, which is what this is, to
- 3:43fully out the loop. Thanks to
- 3:45intelligence going up and cost going
- 3:47down. I've had this running for over a
- 3:49day now. Just non-stop gathering news,
- 3:52filtering it out, using Jev as a key
- 3:55part of the pipeline for gating the more
- 3:57expensive language model calls. Even
- 4:00though this is a very cheap Luna model,
- 4:02it's still a language model call that's
- 4:04chewing up tokens, compute, and
- 4:06therefore cash. So, we put Jev in front
- 4:08to gate, to filter, to look for the
- 4:10right pieces of information. And this
- 4:12allows us to smoothly transition from in
- 4:15loop to out loop. The system is working
- 4:17for me without me. So, pretty standard
- 4:19UI. This is a standard modern user
- 4:21interface that you're probably used to.
- 4:22We have agent on the right or on the
- 4:24left, and then we have the generative UI
- 4:26in the other portion. You can see we
- 4:27have a nice timeline here. We'll break
- 4:29down the actual feature set here because
- 4:31how something is built matters more than
- 4:33what you're building. Because as you
- 4:35know, code is now infinitely cheap,
- 4:37infinitely copyable. The reverse
- 4:38engineer anything trend is showing that.
- 4:41Mathematicians losing their mind over
- 4:43OpenAI's huge math proof dump is also
- 4:46showing that. What matters now is your
- 4:48taste, your judgment, and your ability
- 4:50to architect unique systems with unique
- 4:52properties. So, before we get to the
- 4:54architecture of this durable news agent,
- 4:56which looks for news that's actually
- 4:58worth your attention. You can see we're
- 5:00getting a lot of news on the Gemini 4
- 5:02Argon release. That's the fresh new hot
- 5:04thing coming in right now. And my agent
- 5:06pulled this to me. I didn't have to go
- 5:08find it. But before we dive into the
- 5:09architecture, I just want to talk about
- 5:10like, how did I apply my taste, my
- 5:12expertise to drive what I built here?
- 5:19Mentally, I separate new information
- 5:21into three buckets: hype, facts, and
- 5:24signal. Hype usually means there's too
- 5:26much attention and topic growth is
- 5:28driven by unfounded excitement because
- 5:30the topic itself is arousing or
- 5:32attention-grabbing by nature. So, this
- 5:34is hype. We then have facts. And facts
- 5:37are objectively true. This is much
- 5:39closer to what I call signal, but it's
- 5:41important to differentiate signal from
- 5:43fact because not all facts are useful
- 5:45information you can actually act on. For
- 5:48instance, OpenAI dropped that huge set
- 5:50of math proofs. Can you, an engineer,
- 5:52actually act on that? Not really, but it
- 5:54is still awesome. It is still a fact of
- 5:56the matter. There's a new wave of
- 5:58mathematics coming that will likely
- 6:00unlock things in the future for you and
- 6:02I and for the world. This is a fact
- 6:04though. It's not really signal right
- 6:06now. And then there's signal. Signal is
- 6:08something you can actually act on. For
- 6:10instance, Gemini 4 Argon is a new
- 6:12language model. It's state of the art.
- 6:13You and I can use this right now. It was
- 6:16announced like a week ago or something,
- 6:17but this has just been rolled out at the
- 6:19time of filming. And now this is an
- 6:21actual piece of information you and I
- 6:22can act on. So, this is how I like to
- 6:24separate information in the age of AI to
- 6:26filter out the noise. So, with this
- 6:28applied taste, aka judgment, I can now
- 6:31build an architecture to help me do
- 6:32that. And obviously you're seeing the
- 6:33end result here, but I want to walk you
- 6:35through why software engineering is
- 6:38still so important and having an
- 6:39opinion, having a product vision still
- 6:42matters. In fact, it matters more than
- 6:44ever since everyone is now copying,
- 6:46reverse engineering, and slopping out
- 6:48anything they can think of. What does
- 6:50the architecture of this look like?
- 6:51Because now we have a goal, now we have
- 6:53a concrete opinion about what the result
- 6:55should look like. Now we can dive in and
- 6:56answer like, what's the architecture?
- 7:02So, the architecture for the system
- 7:04looks like this. This is the whole
- 7:05system. We have cron firing off our API
- 7:08and our API is our news desk Pi Durable
- 7:11Agent. We dove into the details of Pi
- 7:14Durable Agent in our last week's video.
- 7:16That one's getting a lot of attention
- 7:17for good reason. I think a lot of
- 7:18engineers are understanding this concept
- 7:20of proactive agents. It's so important.
- 7:22I have to talk about it again
- 7:24back-to-back week after week. This is
- 7:26high signal. Pi Durable lets us create
- 7:29durable tasks. This is all triggered via
- 7:31an API. So, everything is isolated. And
- 7:33again, this is my Mac mini device. I can
- 7:35deploy this anywhere. In fact, I have.
- 7:38If we jump back, you can see this is
- 7:39operating on a local URL, but this one
- 7:42here is operating on a exc.dev agent
- 7:45sandbox. As you can see, this one's
- 7:47focused on muse. These are different
- 7:48sets of information. It's asking me some
- 7:50questions. The system is prompting me.
- 7:53This is what's called a two-way prompt
- 7:54system. I can prompt it, it can prompt
- 7:56me, and it's creating this own unique
- 7:58feed that's completely separate from my
- 8:00feed on my M4, which is more fine-tuned.
- 8:02So, you can see I'm testing on my M4 and
- 8:04on an exc.dev sandbox. So, again,
- 8:06detached clients is the theme here with
- 8:08durable agents. And this thing is just
- 8:10going to keep running, as you can see
- 8:12here. And as you saw, we have the
- 8:14terminal user interface. We can access
- 8:15this via CLI, and we can access it via a
- 8:18browser. So, this is the whole system.
- 8:20It's a client-server application, where
- 8:22we've separated out several of the
- 8:24moving parts. So, what does that look
- 8:26like?
- 8:30This is built in layers. So, we have our
- 8:32SQLite databases. We have Pi Durable.
- 8:35Shoutout Mario and Armin. We then have a
- 8:37durable agent. This is a custom
- 8:38implementation of it, which then is
- 8:40exposed via an API. We also have Jev,
- 8:43which is doing a lot of classification,
- 8:44a lot of filtering, a lot of ranking at
- 8:46dirt-cheap prices. And then we have the
- 8:48actual SDK, which our browser, our TUI,
- 8:50our cron, and our CLI uses. What we're
- 8:53doing here is building an architecture
- 8:55that can be redeployed across many
- 8:57different use cases in a proactive
- 8:59agent-first way. That's the idea.
- 9:01Whenever I sit down to build something,
- 9:02it's not just about the thing. It's
- 9:04about how it's built. It's about the
- 9:06architecture around it. There's more and
- 9:08more fear, uncertainty, and doubt in the
- 9:10age of AI. More than ever now, code
- 9:12generation is solved. People are saying
- 9:14mathematics is solved. People are saying
- 9:16software engineering is solved.
- 9:18>> [laughter]
- 9:18>> I completely disagree with this. We're
- 9:20still going to need great practitioners
- 9:23who put their hands on the keyboard to
- 9:25drive the right results, to use the
- 9:27right architecture, to ask the
- 9:28questions, and to guide the language
- 9:31models. Obviously, there's levels to
- 9:32that. That's what we're always focused
- 9:34on here on the Endy Dev Dan channel, but
- 9:35like, don't lose faith in your
- 9:37engineering skills. You've been doing
- 9:38this for years. Many of you have been
- 9:40engineering like I have. I've been
- 9:42engineering for over 15 years. And
- 9:44agents have now come onto the scene.
- 9:45This is a new tool. That's all it is.
- 9:47Use it as a new tool. Don't let it scare
- 9:49the out of you and prevent you from
- 9:51actually getting things done because you
- 9:53can do more than ever now if you're
- 9:55using the right tools. So, you can see
- 9:56here we're coming in with some dead
- 9:58sweeps. This thing runs every single
- 9:59minute, so there's a lot it's pulling
- 10:01in. But, back to the architecture. It's
- 10:03built in layers and this unlocks this
- 10:05type of system. This is how this works.
- 10:07This is the AI developer workflow. On
- 10:09this top-level new sweep, we then have a
- 10:10task that runs. We gather, we gate, we
- 10:12dedupe, and then we rank. And then we
- 10:14have n candidates that come back, and
- 10:16then our durable agent decides what to
- 10:19actually render based on the rankings
- 10:21that come back. So, that's the
- 10:22architecture. That's how it works. And
- 10:24we're pretty much using Jev at every
- 10:25point in this.
- 10:29This is a great way to classify large
- 10:31amounts of text in many, many different
- 10:33ways. And Jev is, of course, as you
- 10:35know, dirt cheap. It's super reliable.
- 10:37It's very fast. Roll your own if you
- 10:39want. I am saving a crap ton of time by
- 10:41just using out of the box Jev. It's a
- 10:44great generic classifier. But, you can
- 10:45see here, this is a very powerful way to
- 10:48process large amounts of information at
- 10:51sub half-second times per call. You can
- 10:54see how we're using this here. Is this
- 10:55news piece relevant? Is it a dupe? Is it
- 10:57the same story? If you can't hash it,
- 10:59this is a great way to fall back from
- 11:01hashes. Of course, you want to do a
- 11:02content hash first. Then, of course, you
- 11:04know, research claim. Is this actually
- 11:06fact? We can put together many sources
- 11:08and determine if there's some overlap.
- 11:10And then we do actual presentation. The
- 11:12big idea here, the meta lesson, the meta
- 11:14idea behind what I'm showing you here is
- 11:16this.
- 11:20We want to move from in loop to near
- 11:22loop to out loop. This is the name of
- 11:24the game for agentic engineers because
- 11:26this is a measure of your skill. It's
- 11:28not about sitting in the terminal
- 11:29prompting back and forth. You've heard
- 11:31me say that a million times now. The
- 11:32real edge now is move from in to near to
- 11:36out. And this is a direct measure of
- 11:39your agentic engineering skill. Because
- 11:40what does it mean? It means that you
- 11:42have more autonomous systems working for
- 11:44you all the time, doing real work for
- 11:45you all the time. Of course, you know,
- 11:47the tokens you use have to be useful.
- 11:49The code you write, the things that run
- 11:51have to be useful. As you do this, as
- 11:53you make this transition, which is what
- 11:54it's really all about, this is what it
- 11:57looks like to increase your agentic
- 11:58engineering skill. It's more threads of
- 12:00work working for you on your behalf all
- 12:03the time, around the clock. This is the
- 12:04new mental model I'm using and
- 12:06recommending to engineers in the loop,
- 12:07near the loop, and then out the loop
- 12:09completely. And I hope you can see how
- 12:11this system is a direct replication of
- 12:13that. First, you're in, then you're
- 12:15near, and then you're out. Let me talk
- 12:17about some of the actual feature sets of
- 12:20the durable news agent. Let's move from
- 12:22engineering and architecture to hands-on
- 12:24[music] product.
- 12:29So, what are the features of this tool?
- 12:30One key thing everyone should be doing
- 12:32in their software now is creating a data
- 12:34flywheel. It's creating a feedback loop
- 12:36between your users' inputs and the way
- 12:38your code plus agents takes that
- 12:40feedback and improves the product. News
- 12:43and gathering information and filtering
- 12:45through the noise is a great example for
- 12:46this. There's a reason I'm targeting
- 12:48this and I'm improving my agentic
- 12:50engineering by using this use case
- 12:51specifically. It's because I can come in
- 12:53now and upvote or downvote something.
- 12:55This is real information. This is real
- 12:57signal and fact that I care about. First
- 12:58off, I can just thumbs it up, and then I
- 13:00can upvote the fact that this model
- 13:03release has happened. Of course, if I
- 13:04click this, it'll open up the full link
- 13:06and we can read it and dive into it. We
- 13:07can see how this is getting trust me,
- 13:08bro, benchmarked right here, and I'm
- 13:10sure the actual post goes a lot further.
- 13:13If we check out the Google DeepMind
- 13:14official release from 35 minutes ago, we
- 13:17can go ahead and dive into this and see
- 13:19the actual news on this release. I'm
- 13:21filming this at the perfect time. Our
- 13:23ProActivation picked this up and is now
- 13:25filling the news feed with this. It's
- 13:26fantastic. We'll see if that model
- 13:28actually gives us anything unique, but
- 13:30this is signal that I care about. You
- 13:31can see that our Jev classifier said,
- 13:34"Yep, this is mostly signal. There's a
- 13:35lot of fact here. It's a new model
- 13:37release."
- 13:38There's nothing to argue there. And then
- 13:40some hype, which is kind of true, 66
- 13:42hype out of 100 because these model labs
- 13:44always have to hype up their release.
- 13:45So, you know, this makes a lot of sense.
- 13:47So, that's one of the key features I can
- 13:48thumbs this up and I can reinforce back
- 13:51into the ranking algorithms that this is
- 13:53important. Let me do this. I'll pass
- 13:55this in and I'll say increase the weight
- 13:58of Gemini. If it doesn't exist as a
- 14:01keyword, add it. So, I'm going to talk
- 14:03directly to my agent. I'm going to queue
- 14:04this message. It's completing its sweep,
- 14:06so my message should pop up here in just
- 14:09a moment. Check. There we go. Good. And
- 14:11there's my message. I can quickly
- 14:13reference that card. Increase the weight
- 14:14of Gemini. If it doesn't exist, add a
- 14:16keyword for it. And so, it looks like
- 14:17there is a task queuing here. There we
- 14:19go. It's reading my taste files. This is
- 14:22all the settings. So, in the settings
- 14:23here, you can see we have all the
- 14:25keywords that I'm focused on and we have
- 14:27the links that our system normally uses.
- 14:30This is all available here to be tuned
- 14:31and customized. Pulling in information
- 14:33is all about weighting it. What do you
- 14:35care about the most? The system lets me
- 14:37weight, increase, decrease the signal
- 14:39for things. You can see here my agent
- 14:41edited that keyword. It raised the
- 14:42existing Gemini keyword topic from 1.2
- 14:45to 1.3. So, in all subsequent runs, it
- 14:47knows that this is an important keyword
- 14:49that I personally care about. So, what
- 14:51is this application really doing here,
- 14:53right? This is a high signal news feed
- 14:55curated to my taste driven by a feedback
- 14:58loop between myself and my durable
- 15:00agents, specifically my durable agent
- 15:02architecture. So, you can see here we
- 15:04got one new piece of news sent in. And
- 15:06we can see this is banking watchdogs
- 15:08ramp up AI scrutiny. This is some
- 15:09signal, some fact. If I want to, I can
- 15:11get rid of this. There's maybe some
- 15:13important information here. I'm just
- 15:14going to go ahead and downvote that, get
- 15:15that out of my stream. But this is a
- 15:16really important feature. I can increase
- 15:18and decrease the signal arbitrarily of
- 15:21what matters. Your signal, what you care
- 15:23about, needs to be fine-tuned. You can
- 15:25see a bunch of things that I mentioned
- 15:27here. All these are, you know, if you've
- 15:28been with the channel, they're all
- 15:29obvious topics and keywords that I focus
- 15:32on a lot on the channel. We also have
- 15:34links, news sources. I'm just starting
- 15:36to to tweak and tune the weights of my
- 15:38actual pages. Shout out Hacker News,
- 15:41Latent Space, Pi, Cloud Code, Anthropic
- 15:43Codex, OpenAI, Simon Willison. And this
- 15:46is all fueled by an agent that has a
- 15:48unique set of tools. So, this is
- 15:50important for a lot of engineers really
- 15:52stuck in the engineering world. You
- 15:53should be building products with agents
- 15:55with unique actions. They should be able
- 15:57to do unique things that differentiate
- 15:59your product. This is a durable news
- 16:01agent. All it does, it's not reading
- 16:03files, it's not changing code. It has
- 16:05specific tools to operate and to filter
- 16:07and to curate news. So, we have run the
- 16:10news sweep, list candidates, read items,
- 16:12search web, scrape URL, research items,
- 16:14Jev classify. Huge shout out to Jev and
- 16:16the Type Safe team. Present news,
- 16:18present timeline, ask taste, so on and
- 16:20so forth. All harness engineered tools
- 16:22that I built with an N loop agent to get
- 16:25the system up and running. I'm building
- 16:27the system that builds a system. That's
- 16:28the reason you go into the loop. You're
- 16:30working on a system that's going to work
- 16:32for you with less of your attention. You
- 16:34want to be near the loop or out the loop
- 16:36and spending less time in the loop.
- 16:38That's the big meta theme. So, we have a
- 16:40nice set of tools here and we've got two
- 16:41new news blocks that just came in. Two
- 16:43nice new Hacker News drops. And you can
- 16:46see the keyword on the left. We've got
- 16:47coding agents and agentic engineering.
- 16:49This looks great. And the agent is just
- 16:50going to keep running. This tick is on
- 16:52every minute. It's going to look for a
- 16:53maximum seven cards. It's going to Jev
- 16:55rank them. So, you can see, you know,
- 16:57this system is very very powerful. It's
- 16:58a great application. The durable agent,
- 17:01specifically I'm using Pi Durable as
- 17:03mentioned in last week's video. If you
- 17:04want to learn more about their specific
- 17:06implementation, which is what I'm using
- 17:07under the hood. Big shout out to the Pi
- 17:09agent, my favorite open source agentic
- 17:11coding tool. Because guess what? I'm in
- 17:13control. I can customize it and I can
- 17:15extend it however I want. It's the same
- 17:16with their durable agent implementation.
- 17:19And this is the new mental shift that I
- 17:20think durable agents unlock. They allow
- 17:22proactive agents that really create this
- 17:25middle step for you. It makes it easier
- 17:27to transition from in loop to out loop,
- 17:30which is the central idea behind the
- 17:32phase three [music] agentic engineering
- 17:34product I'm building right now for
- 17:36advanced engineers using agents every
- 17:38single [music] day. Link in the
- 17:39description for that. Early sign up is
- 17:41available. Don't miss that because this
- 17:43next leap moving to out loop is truly a
- 17:46compounding, dare I say exponential
- 17:48opportunity, an exponential leap in your
- 17:50engineering capability. As you can kind
- 17:52of see, there's hints of it already by
- 17:54just understanding and internalizing
- 17:56near the loop agentic engineering.
- 17:57First, you're in the loop, then you're
- 17:59near the loop, so you're spending less
- 18:00time, and then you're completely out the
- 18:02loop. And at every level, your ability
- 18:04to engineer, this is not vibing, this is
- 18:07not vibe slapping, your ability to
- 18:08agentic engineer the system becomes a
- 18:10higher and higher requirement to
- 18:12actually build something useful here
- 18:14that can work without you. Same for near
- 18:16the loop. So, this is a new mental
- 18:17framework, the new mental model I'm
- 18:19recommending to engineers, and you know,
- 18:20this is the way forward because this is
- 18:22going to offer you the most leverage,
- 18:24but you have to make the transition in,
- 18:26near, out.
- 18:30The lower level core theme here is
- 18:33durable agents are powerful. This
- 18:35durable news agent and last week's on
- 18:37call incident response agent, they're
- 18:38both really concrete examples of what it
- 18:41looks like to build an agentic system in
- 18:43a really concrete way with a concrete
- 18:45outcomes that operate for you without
- 18:48you. And so, you can see the system will
- 18:49just continue. We've got all the
- 18:50executions and all the traces mapped out
- 18:53that we can dive into at any point in
- 18:54time. We've got a nice set of settings
- 18:57with weighted keywords that we can up
- 19:00and down vote. The durable agent is on
- 19:02my m4, it's on my exe.dev cloud sandbox.
- 19:05Great, we've got a nice jab hit here.
- 19:08I'm going to be tuning and tweaking this
- 19:09algorithm. Linked in the description for
- 19:11you is going to be this durable news
- 19:13agent system. And the whole point here
- 19:15is to really help you fast-track that
- 19:17movement between in the loop, near the
- 19:19loop, and out the loop. So, take this,
- 19:21tweak it, make it your own. I'm not
- 19:22going to give you
- 19:23>> [laughter]
- 19:24>> my settings. You're going to have to
- 19:25choose your own settings. Feel free to,
- 19:26you know, take a snapshot, try to get it
- 19:28into the system as much as you want here
- 19:29with some of the settings I'm playing
- 19:30with, but there are a lot of
- 19:31improvements we made here. I'm really
- 19:33happy with the early implementations of
- 19:34this. I'm going to be continuing to
- 19:36build on this. Again, link in the
- 19:37description. You want to be thinking
- 19:39about how you can build agents that work
- 19:41for you without you. Proactive agents
- 19:43don't wait for you to work. They work
- 19:44for you, then wait. On the channel,
- 19:46we're constantly pushing toward out-loop
- 19:49agentic engineering. If you haven't
- 19:50already, definitely sign up for the
- 19:52phase three agentic engineering product
- 19:55I'm building right now. Hands-on, this
- 19:57is for the mid to senior correct agentic
- 20:00engineer that's on the edge. Here, we're
- 20:02focused purely on out-loop phase three
- 20:05agentic engineering. All phase two
- 20:07tactical agentic coding members will
- 20:09receive a discount. So, if you're
- 20:11interested in that, check it out. That's
- 20:12phase two agentic coding. Here, we're
- 20:14going to be focused purely on the next
- 20:16phase, the next massive leap. Pre-email
- 20:19sign-up is available now. In a couple
- 20:21weeks, it'll be pre-sell. And at the end
- 20:23of November, it'll be launch time. It'll
- 20:25be go time. I can't wait to share more
- 20:27of this with you. Link in the
- 20:28description. Get signed up. The next
- 20:30leap is going to be massive because once
- 20:32your out-loop system starts compounding
- 20:34for you, starts working for you, it's
- 20:36not going to stop. And durable agents
- 20:38are a key step in that direction. In AI
- 20:403, we're going to take that much
- 20:42further. I've got the durable news agent
- 20:44linked for you in the description. Check
- 20:46this out, make it your own, tweak it,
- 20:47add more API providers, add more links
- 20:50so that you're filtering out all the
- 20:52junk coming toward you in the age of AI
- 20:55to just the most important pieces. You
- 20:57can see here, I've got a decent set of
- 20:58information coming my way, but lots to
- 21:00improve, lots to tweak here. Costs have
- 21:02barely moved. I'm paying close attention
- 21:04to the tokenomics of the system so that
- 21:06I don't go broke in generating the
- 21:08value. Jev and cheap language models
- 21:10like Luna and Haiku 5.5 are going to be
- 21:13key in that, as well as other models
- 21:14like Deep Seek V4.1 Flash. I highly
- 21:17recommend you start transitioning from
- 21:19in-loop to near-loop to out-loop. You
- 21:21can see my terminal client still
- 21:23completely synced up. We can say what
- 21:25was the last entry you added, and it's
- 21:27going to be completely synced with the
- 21:29browser. It's currently queued till
- 21:31after the sweep runs. There we go. What
- 21:33was the last entry you added? We got a
- 21:35new post from Anthropic saying code
- 21:37merges have rose nearly tenfold since
- 21:40May. It got correctly categorized as
- 21:42hype. Also some fact, some signal, but
- 21:44mostly hype. I completely agree with
- 21:46that. Thumbs up on that. The models
- 21:47continue. If you want to learn more
- 21:49about productive agents, check out the
- 21:50link in the description to check out
- 21:52last week's video where we use Py
- 21:54Durable to build an on-call incident
- 21:57response agent. Productive agents are
- 21:59the future of engineering. You want
- 22:00agents that are working for you [music]
- 22:01in the background and waiting for your
- 22:03feedback, creating a data flywheel for
- 22:05both you and your users of [music] your
- 22:07products. I'm building out more and more
- 22:09of these all over my stacks, all over my
- 22:11devices, in the cloud, in [music]
- 22:12products, because the signal here is
- 22:15high. The signal here is rich. I
- 22:17recommend you do the same. Definitely
- 22:18sign up for the phase three product if
- 22:20you haven't, and keep your eye on the
- 22:21signal. [music] If you made it to the
- 22:23end, let the YouTube algorithm know this
- 22:25is signal you care about. [music] You
- 22:26know where to find me every single
- 22:28Monday. Stay focused and keep building.
