The AI space seems to have undergone a Cambrian explosion. From multi-million dollar GPT wrappers, to VC-backed behemoths building proprietary models and exploring new generative formats such as music and video, it's safe to say AI is the most exciting space to be building in right now. In this episode of the Backdrop podcast, Joey chats with three experienced builders with a unique vantage point on what's coming past the current horizon. Miguel Piedrafita is a prolific builder and developer working at Worldcoin. Steven Tey is a developer advocate at Vercel. Rick Bhardwaj is the cofounder of Guru—building video intelligence models for developers.
Besides their thoughts on the future, this conversation also touched on some perpetual problems that all builders face—keeping maintenance costs low, thinking from first principles about AI-native product development, and more. Hope you find this conversation as valuable as we did!
This episode was recorded as a part of 100.builders, a four week program to support people building open tech in crypto and AI.
