Today, that bet is starting to pay off, as the foundational infrastructure for the agentic web is now being built.\nOn this week's AI & I, Dan Shipper revisits his conversation with Kevin. They discuss Microsoft's role in the agentic web, why openness doesn't have to come at the expense of security, and why programmers should stay curious about new tools rather than resist them on principle.\nIf you found this episode interesting, please like, subscribe, comment, and share!\nTo hear more from Dan Shipper:\nSubscribe to Every: https://every.to/subscribe\nFollow him on X: https://twitter.com/danshipper\nGo to https://attio.com/every and get 15% off your first year.\nTimestamps: \n0:00 Start\n1:44 Introduction\n2:49 The race to close the \"capability overhang\"\n4:31 How agents will evolve into practical, useful tools\n6:48 The role Kevin sees Microsoft playing in the agent ecosystem\n12:05 How robust security measures can coexist with open ecosystems\n15:39 Kevin's philosophy on being a craftsman in the age of agents\n20:52 How the landscape of software development agents will evolve\n25:33 The future of agentic workflows\nLinks to resources mentioned in the episode:\nKevin Scott on X: https://twitter.com/kevin_scott\nModel Context Protocol (MCP): https://modelcontextprotocol.io\nNLWeb: https://github.com/microsoft/NLWeb\nGitHub Copilot: https://github.com/features/copilot","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/tpm1hNSy8JXTtPDypo5McPF0S6eDqruRTGYywu9SVrc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yNDM2/YzU4NDNmYTQxNTJh/MTEzYjE4YmJmYTg5/ODY1NS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
