If you aren't the one educating your users on the fundamentals of AI, your competitors will happily do it for you. This week on Dev Interrupted, Andrew sits down with Philip Kiely, Head of AI Education at Baseten and author of Inference Engineering, to discuss why the secret to winning the AI market is owning the educational narrative through active market development. They explore the rise of the "Double-T" shaped engineer, the hidden complexities of scaling the inference stack, and why the most successful AI companies treat developer education as a mission-critical go-to-market motion.
