What happens when you give an AI agent too much autonomy? Mark Cavage, President & COO at Docker, has spent two decades at the infrastructure layer — from early AWS to co-founding Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, to Heroku, Stripe, and now Docker. In this episode, Mark and Raja Iqbal get into why containers break under agentic workloads, how Docker built a micro VM sandbox so agents can run in full YOLO mode without losing control, and what the 1000x productivity gain actually costs your security team. A must-listen for anyone building with agents, managing enterprise risk, or figuring out where the next infrastructure layer gets built.
Mark Cavage helped build early AWS, co-founded Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and now leads Docker through the agentic shift. He breaks down why containers break under agentic workloads, what Docker built to fix it, and why 1000x developer productivity comes with a 1000x security risk. A must-listen for engineers, security leaders, and anyone building with agents.
João Moura started building AI agents just to make his own work easier. That side project became CrewAI, now powering autonomous workflows at the world’s largest 150 enterprises. He breaks down moving AI from prototype to production, open-source growth, enterprise governance, and why simplicity beats over-engineering. A must-listen for AI builders and enterprise leaders.
Did you know one of the most influential data models in the world was sketched on a plane to Mumbai in 2000? Emil Eifrem, Neo4j’s Co-Founder & CEO, did exactly that. That sketch became the property graph model, and Emil has spent the last two decades building, innovating, and evangelizing graph databases that help organizations see relationships like never before.
Before StatQuest became a go-to resource for millions of AI and ML learners—or before the legendary “BAM!” moments—there was just Josh Starmer in a genetics lab, explaining data analysis to colleagues who were amazed by what he was doing. But Josh didn’t want them to think he was working magic. What started as a way to stop repeating lectures in a lab, with just 9 views and 2 subscribers, evolved into a global teaching phenomenon.

This episode features Bob van Luijt, Co-founder and CEO of Weaviate—a prominent open-source vector database in the industry. Raja and Bob trace the evolution of AI over the years, the current LLM landscape, and its outlook for the future. They further dive deep into various LLM concepts such as RAG, fine-tuning, challenges in enterprise adoption, vector search, context windows, the potential of SLMs, generative feedback loop, and more.
This episode features Bob van Lujit, Co-founder and CEO of Weaviate. Bob shares his journey, from early childhood and a fascination for tech to launching his own entrepreneurial venture at a very young age. They also discuss the importance of standing out and continuously evolving and adapting in a highly competitive landscape, and the potential of vector embeddings.
To make LLMs actually useful for enterprises, it is important for them to retrieve company’s data effectively. LlamaIndex has been at the forefront of providing such solutions to augment LLMs. In this episode, Jerry Liu, Co-founder and CEO of LlamaIndex, walks us through how it is reshaping the generative AI landscape.
In this episode, we unpack Luis’s fascinating journey, from his childhood and maths fears to a deep-seated passion for it. We explore his career path, uncovering the pivotal moments and learnings, as he navigated through big tech players, changing gears from Maths to AI and Quantum AI, and how he ultimately found his true calling.
