Like paving roads for cars, the real unlock is reshaping the environment so AI can move fast.// BioRob Ennals is the creator of Broomy, an open-source IDE designed for working effectively with many agents in parallel. He previously worked at Meta, Quora, Google Search, and Intel Research. He has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Cambridge.// Related LinksWebsite: https://robennals.org/https://broomy.org/https://learnai.robennals.org/ (not yet announced, but should be by the time of the podcast)~~~~~~~~ ✌️Connect With Us ✌️ ~~~~~~~Catch all episodes, blogs, newsletters, and more: https://go.mlops.community/TYExploreJoin our Slack community [https://go.mlops.community/slack]Follow us on X/Twitter [@mlopscommunity](https://x.com/mlopscommunity) or [LinkedIn](https://go.mlops.community/linkedin)] Sign up for the next meetup: [https://go.mlops.community/register]MLOps Swag/Merch: [https://shop.mlops.community/]Connect with Demetrios on LinkedIn: /dpbrinkmConnect with Rob on LinkedIn: /robennals/
