s1
00:00:07.839 --> 00:00:10.080
I need

s2
00:00:13.100 --> 00:00:15.100
[music]

s3
00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:31.440
I need I need baby I baby I

s4
00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:31.519
[music]

s5
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:37.280
feel I feel

s6
00:00:45.195 --> 00:00:47.195
[music]

s7
00:00:58.295 --> 00:01:00.295
[music]

s8
00:01:05.119 --> 00:01:08.560
In the beginning, there was the token.

s9
00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:13.040
Then there was the chat.

s10
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:16.720
Then we learned to use tools.

s11
00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:18.960
Then we learned to set goals.

s12
00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:21.840
I'm skipping a few steps.

s13
00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:24.640
And these days, we're all about automations.

s14
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:31.520
We're all about cron jobs and the loops and the rest of today on this live stream.

s15
00:01:31.520 --> 00:01:38.640
Uh the uh those of you watching at home, uh we're going to be talking about software factories as well.

s16
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:41.280
So there's a lot of loop stacking.

s17
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:43.680
Uh I wrote this essay called Loopcraft.

s18
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:47.040
Uh I think Joel in the audience did a workshop on it yesterday.

s19
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:47.840
Can you still hear me?

s20
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:48.560
Are we good?

s21
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:51.280
Sorry, I I um had a mic slip.

s22
00:01:51.280 --> 00:02:11.760
Um and I think this is something that is basically a core skill of AI engineer uh is defining what loops you're working in and figuring out whether that's the right level of extraction and when you're ready going up a loop in order to figure out the next level in productivity and scaling your inference

s23
00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:21.840
and when you're finding issues going down a loop and going lower level in order to figure out reliability and fixing whatever bugs you you mind.

s24
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:27.840
If you want to simplify it, uh I have a I have a better analogy that will be less complicated.

s25
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:31.520
Uh it's literally just a stack of wild loops, right?

s26
00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:35.760
I think all of you in in the audience and programmers will understand this.

s27
00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:38.879
Uh and effectively, this is what we're here to do today.

s28
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:55.280
Um I expect our engineers, our leaders, our researchers, our founders um to all be understanding and recursing as a as a as a sort of human general intelligence all these loops that you guys are capable of of um going up and down.

s29
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.472
And that is why there's so much content.

s30
00:02:59.472 --> 00:03:00.239
[laughter]

s31
00:03:00.239 --> 00:03:05.920
Um I often tell people who who complain about uh the tracks, I'm not going to apologize for good content.

s32
00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:13.040
uh it's up to you to decide and route yourself uh as to which level you currently working at and which level you're currently blocked on.

s33
00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:24.800
Um so the thing that's occupying most of my time um recently and what I what I make the human analogy for is what is the human loop?

s34
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:33.120
Um and in the beginning there's the heartbeat when you when you're sort of in the womb you you sort of get that heartbeat that is the proof of life.

s35
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.560
Um then you learn to talk.

s36
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.120
Then we learn to use tools.

s37
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:40.319
Then we start to work.

s38
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:44.319
We eat, sleep, code, repeat or prompt.

s39
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:47.280
Um and then we start working in teams.

s40
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:49.680
We start working in small groups and families.

s41
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:56.640
We we've uh promoted the concept of tiny teams before and I think that is increasingly important with uh everybody.

s42
00:03:56.640 --> 00:04:03.680
Um, and I think the interesting thing to think about is like the broader human projects as a whole.

s43
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:04.959
Like where are we all going?

s44
00:04:04.959 --> 00:04:12.000
You know, extend out from your personal context, your family, your country, your company, whatever.

s45
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:17.840
Um, to the broader project of the human civilization and what we're building uh with collective intelligence.

s46
00:04:17.840 --> 00:04:21.519
Uh, I think it's very interesting to uh consider that.

s47
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:25.520
So, um, I I think that's a little bit what I want to leave you with today.

s48
00:04:25.520 --> 00:04:29.840
like the things that you're doing with coding are definitely crossing over to human life.

s49
00:04:29.840 --> 00:04:39.680
Um the message of my last keynote at AI engineer was that the you know it's very much like agents that you see are working in one domain are definitely generalizing this year.

s50
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:52.080
Um this is the year that we are adding vertical tracks like you know AI in healthcare, AI in finance, AI in GTM uh we have a four deployed engineering track this uh today which I'm very excited about.

s51
00:04:52.080 --> 00:04:58.479
Um all of this is meant to see how AI is just diffusing finally beyond coding.

s52
00:04:58.479 --> 00:04:59.280
Okay.

s53
00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:06.000
Um last world fair I gave you all an update on the stress curves uh of the of the organizers.

s54
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:11.919
Uh just to give you an idea this is um the first world uh first AI engineer in 2023.

s55
00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:15.120
Uh this is sort of the the sales curves basically of like how people bought.

s56
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:17.039
Basically it was kind of linear.

s57
00:05:17.039 --> 00:05:20.240
Then we had the first world fair 2024.

s58
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.479
uh about 2,000 people.

s59
00:05:22.479 --> 00:05:30.080
2025 uh was uh I think I maybe skipped uh skipped a few lines, but we're we're basically at 6,000.

s60
00:05:30.080 --> 00:05:34.160
Um and if you sort of calculate uh sorry, we we we we aimed for 6,000.

s61
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:37.120
We actually crossed and going went to 7,000 today.

s62
00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:40.880
Um and uh basically I asked you all to buy your tickets earlier.

s63
00:05:40.880 --> 00:05:42.320
You did not.

s64
00:05:42.320 --> 00:05:47.600
Um uh if you measure the Jenny coefficient, uh it has gone up and not down.

s65
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:48.880
That's the wrong direction.

s66
00:05:48.880 --> 00:05:49.773
Um so if you

s67
00:05:49.773 --> 00:05:49.840
[laughter]

s68
00:05:49.840 --> 00:05:56.639
all if you all can just gather uh you know your yourselves and um you know join us earlier I think that would be great.

s69
00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:06.160
Anyway um why we want to work at a conference why we why I work on a conference why you all come to a conference is basically the concept of the highest loop.

s70
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:11.600
Um I I will submit to you that the highest loop of all is to uh if I can make this slide work.

s71
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:15.600
Oh my god I'm gonna refresh.

s72
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:16.800
Okay.

s73
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:22.400
um uh that the highest loop is where humans come together to figure out what the next loop is, right?

s74
00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:24.000
The loop that makes loops.

s75
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:27.360
Um so we organize a engineer summits all around the world.

s76
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:32.400
Uh this year we have summits in New York, summits in Paris, summits in Singapore.

s77
00:06:32.400 --> 00:06:38.400
Um and you know again Melbourne and I'm forgetting one already Miami.

s78
00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:41.440
Um and uh we organized this as a partners.

s79
00:06:41.440 --> 00:06:43.680
We want you to organize it at in your home countries.

s80
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:51.360
We're we're hiring a partnerships team uh to do this and this is the highest loop of all which is the world's fair which is the summit of summits.

s81
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.759
So you're I'm very excited to welcome all of you today.

s82
00:06:53.759 --> 00:07:02.080
Um I hope that you figure out your generative process for generating loops and propagate it down to your teams to your personal workflows to your lives.

s83
00:07:02.080 --> 00:07:05.280
Thank you very much and enjoy the show.
