In this interview, Malte Ubl, CTO of Vercel, discusses Vercel's approach to AI, emphasizing their support for the AI engineering movement through concrete actions and the development of tools like the Workflow Development Kit. The conversation covers the importance of workflows and agents, the open-source nature of Vercel's AI SDK, and the company's philosophy of dogfooding abstractions before making them public. Ubl also shares insights into Vercel's internal use of agents for tasks like lead qualification, abuse analysis, and data analysis, as well as their agent-on-every-desk program. The discussion touches on Vercel's investment in Python support and concludes with Ubl's perspective on AI leadership and the need for secure app development, even when developers may be less experienced.
