Production AI doesn’t fail because the prompt was imperfect. It fails when architecture, context management, verification, & engineering discipline are missing. Better engineering > better prompts. #AI #SoftwareEngineering #AIAgents #Golang #ArdanLabs
Why is Go a great language for AI agents? @tebeka.bsky.social explains how Go’s small, well-defined, strongly typed design makes it easier for LLMs to understand code with less context. Plus, the Go ecosystem is actively embracing AI with tools like MCP for Go. 🎥 youtube.com/shorts/VY0CW...

If you haven’t seen it yet, @jespino.bsky.social is writing an excellent series on Understanding Go AI Inference. It explains what actually happens when you run LLMs locally from Go, including the stack behind llama.cpp, Yzma, & Kronk. 🔗: www.kronkai.com/blog/underst...
Understanding Go AI Inference: A New Series Featuring Yzma and Kronk
Jesús Espino's Understanding Go AI Inference series takes Go developers inside the local inference stack, from llama.cpp and Yzma to Kronk. Follow every installment from this living reading list.

AI coding agents don't reason; they predict. @tebeka.bsky.social explains how LLMs work, why they can make unexpected mistakes, & why huge context windows often reduce performance instead of improving it. Context engineering matters. ▶️Watch now: youtu.be/ulKLAl3I934

AI is changing software engineering. The question is whether you'll know how to build AI systems that belong in production. 🤖 Join @goinggo.net : www.gophercon.com/agenda/sessi... ⚙️ Join Florin Pățan: www.gophercon.com/agenda/sessi... See you at @gophercon.com U.S.👋
Should you put code reviews on autopilot? @tebeka.bsky.social explores how AI-powered review tools can provide instant feedback, but also why reviewing every commit may come with a significant cost. 🎥 youtube.com/shorts/VnzGq...

AI coding agents don't fail because they're bad at writing code. They fail when they're given too much context, too many responsibilities, and too little engineering discipline. Our latest article explores practical techniques for building AI workflows 📖 : www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/ai...
AI Coding Agents Don't Need Better Prompts. They Need Better Engineering.
AI agents are non-deterministic software components, not magicians. Production reliability comes from context engineering, verification, and strict engineering …

Is your AI coding agent getting confused by too much context? Too much context leads to inaccurate responses. @tebeka.bsky.social shares practical ways to keep AI agents focused using agents.md, targeted file references, /new, and /compact for better performance. ▶️: youtu.be/m-sBvP4VYk0

Python, Java, and Node.js often require runtimes and dependencies before your code can run. Go? Just ship a single executable. @tebeka.bsky.social discusses why that's one of Go's biggest advantages for building and sharing utilities. 🎥 youtube.com/shorts/rtqJP...

Better software starts with building stronger engineering communities. It's the conversations between sessions, the hallway discussions, & engineers sharing real production experience. That's why we believe better communities build better software. www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/bu...
Building Better Software Starts with Stronger Communities
Ardan Labs invests in conferences, meetups, workshops, and developer organizations that help engineers connect, share production lessons, and build better software.

Have We Overcomplicated the Web?
YouTube video by Ardan Labs

The best part of a conference isn't always on stage. The conversations in the hallway, over coffee, or after a session are often where ideas get challenged, partnerships begin, & real engineering happens. Sometimes the most valuable "talk" isn't on the schedule.
Don't ask your Agent to write code immediately. Ask it to design the solution. @tebeka.bsky.social explains why planning mode & spec-driven development produce better code before implementation even begins. 🎥 : youtube.com/shorts/TxAwH...

The question isn't "Can AI agents write code?" It's "Can they operate safely, reliably, & at scale in production?" The teams getting real value from AI are moving beyond demos and focusing on engineering discipline. Want to learn more? Read our latest article: www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/wh...
What Engineers Think About AI Agents: Production Reality vs. Hype
Modern AI agents can generate code and run multi-step workflows, but production reliability depends on verification, observability, and engineering judgment not model capability alone.

Everyone wants fully autonomous AI agents. The teams succeeding in production want something else: predictable systems. The real challenge isn't generating more code. It's building AI workflows you can trust.
Your AI can write code. Can it audit it? LLMs often miss exposed secrets, missing timeouts, & other security risks. @tebeka.bsky.social shows how to prompt AI to review its own code & why you should never deploy AI-generated code without a security audit. ▶️: youtu.be/OAD7lylNNKo

Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸💻🎆 May your code compile, your deployments stay green, & your celebrations filled with fun. From all of us at #ArdanLabs, have a safe & happy Independence Day! #4thofJuly #golang
AI agents can plan. They can also think. Planning looks at the big picture. Thinking goes deep before the next step. @tebeka.bsky.social explains why that difference matters. 🎥 : youtube.com/shorts/OzzaH...
