The AI landscape changes too quickly to bet everything on a single model. Today's best model could be unavailable, too expensive, or no longer an option tomorrow. That's why resilient AI strategies prioritize adaptable workflows over model-specific capabilities. In our latest State of AI, Elliott Fouts, Matt Rubens, Thor Schaeff, and Rob Ocel discuss how engineering teams can build #AI systems that stay effective as the technology continues to evolve.

AI hallucinations are one of the biggest challenges in enterprise #AI, and bigger models alone may not solve the problem. Balon is taking a different approach with model fusion, using consensus across multiple AI models to improve accuracy and reduce hallucinations. Learn how this architecture works, where it fits into real production systems, and what it could mean for the future of reliable #AI. Watch the full episode to hear the complete discussion with Andrew Baker and Arif Hosein. Linked below!

Claude Code Workflows are one implementation of a much bigger idea. As #AI engineering evolves, workflow orchestration won't be limited to a single model or platform. Expect to see reusable workflow patterns, agent orchestration, and deterministic systems become core building blocks across the AI ecosystem. Link to the full conversation with Brandon Mathis, Jonathan Fontanez, and Coston Perkins in the comments!

What's the best first job for an #AI agent? According to Matt Rubens (Roomote), it's probably not writing your team's most important code. Start with the repetitive work that nobody wants to do, like monitoring production logs, triaging support requests, improving test coverage, and handling routine maintenance. That's how AI agents earn trust and become valuable teammates. Watch Matt Rubens, Thor Schaeff (Google DeepMind), Elliott Fouts (This Dot Labs), and Rob Ocel (This Dot Labs) discuss practical AI adoption strategies in our latest State of AI.

Proud to be a sponsor of Chain React (July 30–31, 2026)! We’re excited to support a community of developers, architects, and engineering leaders who are shaping the future of React Native and pushing mobile development forward. At This Dot Labs, we’re passionate about helping teams build better software through modern engineering practices, #AI-assisted workflows, and innovative approaches to development. We love supporting incredible builders attending this year’s conference and sharing ideas about what’s next for mobile teams. 📆 July 30–31, 2026 📍 Portland, OR Get your tickets through the link in the comments!

As #AI agents become more aware of context, they'll move beyond prompt and response to proactively surface information, complete work, and help teams move faster without constant direction. We explored this and much more in our latest State of AI with leaders from Google DeepMind, Roomote, and This Dot Labs. Watch the full conversation. 🔗👇

#AI is reshaping software development, but the organizations seeing the greatest results are doing more than adopting new tools. They are building repeatable workflows, strong governance, and practical AI strategies that scale. The Certified AI Strategy & Workflow Architect (CAISWA) program is built for engineering leaders, software architects, and technical professionals who want to lead that transformation. You'll learn how to: ✔ Build effective AI powered development workflows ✔ Create governance that supports quality and consistency ✔ Improve team productivity while reducing risk ✔ Apply practical frameworks you can use immediately Earn an industry recognized certification and gain skills that help your team deliver AI assisted software with confidence. 📅 Upcoming sessions: • September 1–2 • October 6–7 • December 2–3 Registration link is in the comments.

Some of the biggest names in tech are coming to Atlanta Tech Week and we're helping to host them! Join Kelsey Hightower, Sarah Drasner, Angie Jones, and Bree H. for an evening of conversations about the pivots, lessons, and experiences that have shaped their careers, followed by a live panel on where the industry is headed. It's free to attend, but registration is required and space is limited. (About 20 seats left!) 🔗 RSVP: https://luma.com/16nfy3e5

AI is changing how we interact with technology altogether. In our latest State of AI, leaders from Google DeepMind, Roomote, and This Dot Labs explore the future of voice interfaces, #AI agents, developer workflows, and the infrastructure needed to support the next generation of AI systems. Watch the full conversation and see where AI is headed next. Link in the comments. 🔗👇

The way we interact with #AI is changing just as quickly as the models themselves. From voice interfaces and ambient context to AI teammates and the future of software development, our latest State of AI livestream explores where AI interaction is headed and what it means for engineering teams.
