Alexi leverages AI to streamline litigation workflows and speed up research, with an eye to giving lawyers more time and energy to devote to client strategy and support.  Find Mark on LinkedIn.  Shoutout to Stack Overflow user ycr for dropping some knowledge in our CI/CD Collective: How to get the BUILD_USER in Jenkins when a human rebuilds a job triggered by timer?. Here’s a quick preview of the episode: “The founding thesis was, let’s try and build an AI that knows the law. And if we do that, there'll be lots of applications throughout the legal field. We knew that these foundational models, the underlying technology, were going to continue to improve and allow us to do more and more.”  “I mean, law is one of the fields where it seems like these large language models could have the most utility, because often what you're doing is taking on a case with potentially an enormous amount of case law that you need to search through to find the needle in a haystack that will help you and/or enormous amount of documents that you need to search through. And so a system that's capable of understanding, synthesizing, and annotating and pointing you to the ground truth is incredibly valuable.” “ It's not supposed to give legal advice if it doesn't have the licensure and the insurance.” “Part of the problem is we have these laws that are just not being enforced at all. And so either the laws have to change or they need to start getting enforced.” “ We realized that if we have almost 100% recall in the top 5,000 documents, why don't we just apply some sort of agentic flow to filter down from these 5,000 to the 10 documents that were really needed?"

One study suggest they do.  Connect with Dan on X and LinkedIn.  Congrats to Populist badge winner Marcio Mazzucato for doing the accepted answer one better on How do I emulate a 403 error page?. Want a preview? Here are some great quotes from this episode:  “ The human transformation of getting off of this computer platform and back out into the world and back out into trying to advance, some of the existential, whether it's risks or opportunities or threats, but get away from this huge workforce sitting in front of computers. We also have this fundamental belief that humans actually aren't great at operating computers, but other computers are really good at it.” “ We find the average RCM team has attrition rates of 10 to 40%, which is three to 10X other industries. So they already have a leaky bucket. They are actually understaffed. They are having trouble keeping up. So for us, it's more about adding abundance of capacity at a much more lower cost that a higher quality that will allow them to be more financially sound organizations. I know there's a lot of conversation about replacing the actual human. Yeah, of course. There are folks out there who organizations will look and say, Hey, if you're just sitting there moving data around and you're not very good at it and you hate that job and like it's hard to staff and train, it's going to make a lot of sense to replace with an AI solution.” “ We think our mission is to fix the healthcare system, not to duct tape the current environment. And we have multiple acts in our mission to achieve that. And I completely align. It is the broken down institutions. That is actually what's driving a lot of the problem. We do have to get closer to the metal or we do have to get closer to the systematic changes. And, that's likely going to require some big movement as it relates to how the money moves.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Get started with their docs. Connect with Kinnaird on LinkedIn.  Stack Overflow user Cecil Curry earned a Populist badge with their exceptionally thoughtful answer to In Python how can one tell if a module comes from a C extension?. Some great excerpts from this episode: “From the program side, I would say if you're running a security program or you're starting from day one, there's a danger with security people and being the security person who's out of touch or doesn't know what the life of a developer is like. And you don't want to be that person. And that's not how you have actual business impact, right? So you got to embed with teams, threat model, and then do some preventative security testing, right? Testing things before it gets into production, not just relying on having a bug bounty program.” “With code scanning, you're looking for potentially insecure patterns in the code, but with dynamic testing, you're actually testing the live application. So we're sending HTTP traffic to the application, sending malicious payloads in forms or in query parameters, et cetera, to try to elicit a response or to send something to an attacker controlled server. And so using this, we're able to. Not just have theoretical vulnerabilities, but exploitable vulnerabilities. I mean, how many times have you looked at something in GitHub security alerts and thought, yeah, that's not real. That's not exploitable. Right. So we're trying to avoid that and have higher quality touch points with developers. So when they look at something, they say, okay, that's exploitable. You showed me how. And you traced it back to code.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Instabug helps developers monitor, prioritize, and debug performance and stability issues throughout the mobile app development lifecycle. Get started with their docs. Connect with Kenny on LinkedIn.  Stack Overflow user itoctopus earned a Populist badge by explaining how to Break huge URLs so they don't overflow. Some great excerpts from today’s episode: On why they built a lean, mean SDK: “Nowadays mobile developers spend a lot of time thinking about SDK bloat and how much they're taxing their app’s performance just from the SDKs they’re including. We spent a lot of time and a lot of effort making sure that our SDK has very minimal performance impact. You can't do this without any performance impact, but making sure that it has really minimal performance impact as an SDK itself. A lot of that has to do with the way in which, from years of experience, we capture the information and offload certain information to storage for when we have network connectivity bandwidth later so that we're not constantly eating network.” On the future of self-fixing code and mobile app development: “Our belief is that the place where we're going to see this kind of auto fixing of code, auto healing of code, it's probably going to be mobile first. So we're invested heavily in seeing that reality. You can think of it as straightforward as crashes, for example. There's a known set of crash error codes. And so there's a known set of crash behaviors. So it's pretty easy for us. And that was what our smart resolve 1.0 was to get to, Hey, this is generally how you should solve these types of crashes. Our 1.0 version is not giving you code suggestions, but it's at least giving you known best practices from places like Stack Overflow and others that have content about how to solve these types of problems.” On using AI models to spot UI issues: “We think that there are a lot less deterministic ways to spot a frustration signal. So the thing we're working on is, on device models for your users’ behavior that will allow our SDK to capture a frustration signal that nobody else has. Maybe today when I opened my banking app, I usually look at page one and then do a transfer, check out my balance, and now I'm doing this weird swiping behavior because something's not working well. A model could spot that. It wouldn't be reported as a bug, but a model could spot that.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
