## Resource

In this episode,&nbsp; Scott Hanselman &nbsp;and&nbsp; Mark Russinovich &nbsp;dive into the realities of building complex software with AI coding agents. Mark shares his experience using modern models to implement a shared-memory transport for&nbsp;gRPC&nbsp;across Go and .NET, explaining how AI dramatically accelerated development while still requiring constant oversight. They discuss the surprising strengths and limitations of AI coding tools, to the massive productivity gains that make the frustration worthwhile. The conversation also explores the challenges of solving hard engineering problems, including an attempt to build a scrolling screenshot stitcher, and wraps with thoughts on the future of developer tooling and a potential live episode of the show.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Takeaways: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; AI coding agents can speed up complex development but still require human oversight&nbsp; Developers often need to guide and correct the model throughout the process&nbsp; Even with challenges, AI can reduce months of work to days&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Who are they? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; View Scott Hanselman on LinkedIn &nbsp;&nbsp; View Mark Russinovich on LinkedIn &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; Watch Scott and Mark Learn on&nbsp; YouTube &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Listen to other episodes at&nbsp; scottandmarklearn.to &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Discover and follow other Microsoft podcasts at &nbsp;microsoft.com/podcasts &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Produced by Hangar Studios Hosted on Acast.
