Can AI Save Us?","html":"<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"180\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless src=\"https://share.transistor.fm/e/c642e222\"></iframe>","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":2578,"description":"In this episode of Tales from the Pros, hosts Michael Georgiou and Eric Lawrence are joined by Gal Vered, co-founder and CEO of Checksum AI, to break down one of the biggest bottlenecks in modern software development—fixing bugs and ensuring code quality in an AI-driven world.\nAI can now generate software faster than ever. You can build features, ship MVPs, and even spin up entire applications in minutes. But speed introduces a new problem. How do you verify that the code actually works? And more importantly, how do you trust it in production?\nThe conversation cuts through the hype around AI coding and focuses on what really matters. Quality, testing, and verification. Gal shares insights from his experience at Google and building Checksum AI, explaining why most teams get stuck in endless bug-fixing loops, how AI can compound bad code patterns, and why strong testing systems are the only way to enable truly autonomous software development.\n\nIf you're building software with AI, struggling with bugs, or trying to scale beyond MVP without breaking everything, this episode gives a practical look at what it actually takes to ship reliable software today.\n\n🎯 Highlights You Won’t Want to Miss\nWhy AI-generated code often fails in production\nThe real bottleneck in software development today\nHow bug-fixing loops slow down engineering teams\nWhy speed without verification creates bigger problems\nThe role of testing in enabling autonomous AI developers\nHow bad code patterns compound with AI\nThe difference between code that works locally and production-ready code\nWhy engineers still matter in an AI-driven workflow\n🎧 Listen and Subscribe\n\nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6QkUtrcNllUkqtq1fjlwnZ\n\nApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tales-from-the-pros/id1371067192\n\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Imaginovation/podcasts\n\nSoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/talesfromthepros\n\n\n💡 Key Takeaways\nAI can generate code quickly, but quality and verification remain...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/RGMg3HhKgBMloHbqss9u2m14nKBe1VleKtdtrbpq_AQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yYzYx/NDVjNjBmMjIwYWEx/ODI1OGMyY2Q5N2Rj/MjY2Yy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
