Why this topic matters
In the spirit of Feynman’s “What I cannot create, I do not understand,” this optional outtake from our course is a live mini-build: we’ll code a simple AI coding agent together to form a real mental model and better understand the tools we use. We’ll practice context management, clear specs, small steps, and interactive + structured flows. Join to watch — or hack along.
