AI and Agent Engineering in Elixir. Linking processes and people.
Python and JavaScript/TypeScript AI frameworks are reinventing what telecom solved in 1986. What 40 years of production-grade concurrency teaches us about building AI agents.
Or why I really hate this shit...
The classic system design interview opener: design a URL shortener. Each follow-up is supposed to be harder than the last. On the BEAM, they're boring.
My talk at the San Francisco Global Elixir Meetup on building full-stack AI solutions in Elixir: multiple chains, in-memory RAG, MCP clients, and neural networks in your supervision tree.
I joined the Elixir Mentor podcast to talk about Soothsayer, why the BEAM is the best runtime for AI workflows, and agentic commerce.
Building an AI assistant that knows when to ask for permission versus acting autonomously is trickier than it sounds.
Looking at what some frameworks are doing, I feel they are replicating in Python what we already have in the
