ABOUT THIS EPISODE

This episode: Temporal's internal AI rollout and its very real spend caps, the coding-agent budget overruns hitting Replit, Kilo Code, and Symbotic, five startups racing to solve agent-to-agent trust and auditability, and why mainframe modernization is really a data problem wearing a legacy-code costume.
