🤖 What happens when an AI agent runs your CLI? Interactive prompts, messy output, and unclear errors can break the workflow Join @tebeka.bsky.social for our next Free Webinar on CLI Design for Humans and AI: Building Dual-Audience Tools in Go 📅 Nov. 11th | Online www.ardanlabs.com/events/cli-d...

How can one AI API support different models and their unique requirements? 🤖 In this clip from @goinggo.net ’s Ultimate AI course, explore flexible model inputs, streaming response loops, and real-time tool calling, including a demo with a tiny 0.6B model. 🎥 Watch the clip: youtu.be/jrM2bUlRoys

AI helped recreate seven Adobe applications. What does that mean for software development? 🤔 Building software is getting faster, but reliability, maintainability, and engineering judgment still matter. What will set software apart as AI evolves? Read more 👇 www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/ai...

Can AI build a production-ready REST API in Rust in just 7 minutes? 🦀🤖 In Episode 3, @herberticus.bsky.social uses OpenCode and a detailed ~100-line prompt to build a tested, Dockerized bookstore service. Better instructions. Better architecture. More maintainable code. youtu.be/EdZ4wduM2qI

🤝 Ardan Labs is a Friend of JSConf! From Go and Rust to distributed systems and AI in production, we're proud to support a community of fellow devs building what's next in software engineering. 📍 Join Oct 29th–30th in Guadalajara! 🎟️ www.jsconf.mx #JSConf #ArdanLabs

Austin, just 1 week until the next Cloud Native meetup! 🚀 Join @goinggo.net as he dives into open-source AI inference, model serving, and Kronk in his featured talk “Ultimate AI: Go with your own intelligence.” 📅 Oct 22 | 📍 Station Austin 🔗Register: ocgroups.dev/cncf/group/3...

🤖 83% of developers use AI at work. Only 6.6% trust it for many tasks, including important work decisions. 🔍 What explains the gap? 🚀 Explore our analysis of the 2026 Stack Overflow Developer Survey and what it means for engineering teams: www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/wh...

And now... @goinggo.net at #golangsyd... On Kronk, Bringing @deadprogram.com's yzma together. #golang

Using AI every day is one thing. Knowing where it actually helps is another. Engineering teams need more than access to AI tools. They need the skills to evaluate quality, verify results, and measure impact.

How cool is this! #Kronk #golang Kronk Jev Game is an endless runner. Play the top half of the screen. A small AI model plays the same map in the bottom half, at the same time. No cloud. No API key. Nothing leaves the machine. The model runs on my laptop's integrated GPU. lnkd.in/p/ehuYbP7J

Is a bigger AI context window always better? 🧠 In this clip from our Ultimate AI Course, @goinggo.net breaks down Dense, MoE, and Hybrid architectures, why models lose focus, and how to manage context when running open-source LLMs locally. 🎥 Watch the clip: youtu.be/TMarfNTvK14

🤖 Two new AI courses are now included in our Go bundles! → Ultimate AI by @goinggo.net → Practical Go Development with AI Agents by @tebeka.bsky.social Explore the bundles: www.ardanlabs.com/training-bun... Already a member? courses.ardanlabs.com/users/sign_in

A great evening with the Go community in San Francisco! 🐹🌉 @goinggo.net took the stage to talk about self-hosted LLMs in Go, exploring what’s possible when AI runs closer to the code, the hardware, and the engineer. Thanks to everyone who joined and GoSF for a great meetup! 🙌

Kronk AI v1.32.8 adds support for Jev & OpenJev decision models. 🤖 Instead of using a standard LLM to decide what model to run next, specialized decision models can handle routing and evaluation. Watch the video: youtu.be/x7m4kM3BpoA

A correct answer used to be a strong interview signal. AI is changing that. Now the better questions might be: Why this approach? What could fail? What would you change before shipping? The answer matters. The engineering judgment behind it matters more.

San Francisco, we’re meeting tomorrow! 🦾 Join us at Antithesis for the next GoSF meetup: 🦾 @goinggo.net : Self-Hosted LLMs in Go ☕ Live Cup o’ Go with Shay Nehmad 📍 Oct 7th | 5:30–8 PM PDT & we’re raffling an Ardan Labs training bundle 👀 www.meetup.com/golangsf/eve...

Can you just build things with AI agents? 🕹️🦀 In Episode 2, @herberticus.bsky.social puts it to the test by building Pong in Rust with two different approaches. AI can write the code. Engineering knowledge still shapes the result. 🎥 Watch: youtu.be/1qb6xrePL8I

Cutting entry-level development can make sense on this quarter's spreadsheet. The talent pipeline has a much longer timeline.

Token consumption is an input. Engineering productivity is an outcome. Treating them as the same metric can get expensive.

Your AI token cost is growing. But is your engineering output growing with it? More tokens can produce more work, but the relationship isn't always proportional. We look at AI costs, architecture, and local inference with Kronk: www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/yo...

Yesterday, @goinggo.net joined the GolangNYC Meetup in New York City. Great conversations, a room full of developers, and plenty of ideas shared around building with Go. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a great meetup! 📸 Sharing a few moments from the event below.

What if your #AI application didn’t need a separate model server? AI infrastructure can quickly turn into a web of model servers, vector DBs, orchestration tools, and APIs. Kronk AI takes a different approach. Read this week’s Technical Tuesday: www.ardanlabs.com/news/2026/kr...

Rust + AI agents? There’s a lot more to the combination than speed. In Episode 1 of our Rust for Agentic Development guide, @herberticus.bsky.social breaks down: → Native performance + lower resource usage → Memory safety → Why Rust works well with AI-generated code 🎥 Watch: youtu.be/H7gFuy6Xji4

Go + AI is coming to NYC! Join @goinggo.net at GolangNYC on Sept. 23rd for networking / a talk from his Ultimate AI curriculum to explore what building AI systems with Go can look like. 📍 New York City 📅 September 23rd | 6-8pm RSVP: www.meetup.com/golanguagene...

A good answer is only part of the picture. Also measure what it takes to produce it: → Memory → Tool calls → Retries → Latency AI agents need to be evaluated on both results & resource usage.

What if your Go application could handle AI inference directly? @goinggo.net walks through the #Kronk Model Server and how it handles: → Local & remote GPU inference → Real-time VRAM monitoring → In-Memory Caching → Hugging Face models → Speech + image generation 🎥: youtu.be/Sv0ZhQjaa1M

If you are in the SFO area on Wednesday Octber 7th I will be speaking at the Go meetup and talking about all things #Kronk and #golang. www.meetup.com/golangsf/eve...

🦀 What did attendees think of @herberticus.bsky.social ’s “Practical Actor-Based Concurrency in Async Rust” workshop at RustConf 2026? Here’s what one of the students had to say 👇 Thanks to everyone who joined Herbert in Montréal! #RustConf #rustlang #AsyncRust #ArdanLabs

🦀More from @rustconf.com Our Lead Rust Instructor, @herberticus.bsky.social , has been spending time at the Ardan Labs booth talking Rust, swapping ideas, & connecting with engineers from across the community. A few more shots from Montréal 👇 At the conference? Pass by the booth & say hi! 👋

Every AI agent eventually gives you this choice: Set a limit. Or let it keep going. Retries, context, parallel tool calls and sub-agents all consume resources. The problem isn't giving agents autonomy. It's giving them unlimited autonomy.

Ever shared a Python script and hear: “How do I install this?” Go takes another approach. Build your utility → get an executable → share it. No runtime setup. No dependency hunt. @tebeka.bsky.social explains why Go has an advantage when it comes to shipping software: 🎥 youtube.com/shorts/rtqJP...
