What AI Engineering Looks Like at Meta

I recently joined The AI Native Dev Podcast to expand on some of the topics I covered in my talk at QCon AI. Thank you to Simon Maple for the invitation.

The conversation focused on how I helped grow AI adoption through grassroots community building instead of top-down mandates. We talked about how sharing wins helped drive interest, but also how valuable it was to share the failures - people navigating the early days found those stories more useful than polished success narratives. The goal was always to build a community that could become self-sustaining, and I think we got there.

Simon chats to other speakers from the conference too, so there’s plenty more in the episode beyond my bit.
