Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Isaak Tsalicoglou on REST API Design
Q: Can you talk about what you mean by too tightly coupling UI to endpoints or API requests?
I mean that the API serves the UI almost exclusively, which can lead to confusion and redundancy in the API responses that are tightly coupled to the front-end structure.
Michael Lubas on Evolving Elixir Security
Q: How are you seeing AI affect your space?
AI coding tools are being adopted, but developers still need to be vigilant about security, especially with AI-generated code.
Adam Kirk on Building AI Meeting Automation
Q: Were there any scaling challenges when you went from MVP to getting funding?
Yes, there were scaling problems that needed to be resolved, particularly with our meetings list, which caused issues as we grew.
Adam Kirk on Building AI Meeting Automation
Q: What drew you to co-found Jump? Did you already have an interest in LLMs and AI?
I always had an interest in startups. There was an opportunity for AI updates in Salesforce for sales teams that seemed promising, and it evolved from there.
Henry Saint-Juste on Rapid Prototyping
Q: What does proof of concept over perfection mean to you?
It means creating prototypes that are a few steps ahead and validating ideas before committing to a full tech stack.
