This week I try to keep an open mind and we talk LLMs and AI with Markus Wüstenberg. Markus is a friend of the show and I noticed he was using a lot of LLM lately, I basically learn a lot by doing these podcast interviews, so I was interested to hear about what Markus is using LLM and AI in the systems he ships and also how does he uses AI as a software engineer in the day-to-day.

Personally my experience so far is very mixed, sometimes it's good other it's pretty frustrating with LLMs either integrating functionalities augmented by LLMs or trying to integrate a coding agent in my day-to-day, let's just say that I'm not there yet. But I wanted to hear about someone that do have real production experiences using these things, and Markus gives a solid fundation to demistified some aspects, at least for me ;).
