In this episode of "How Many CTOs Does It Take?" podcast, Brad Hefta-Gaub is joined by guest co-host Philip Rosedale to explore the multifaceted role of a CTO, comparing it with the CEO position. They discuss the joy of working on products versus managing teams, and share anecdotes such as their meeting with Steve Jobs to illustrate that being a CTO involves strategic business elements as well. The conversation dives deep into the optimistic use of AI coding agents, whether you should be polite to AI, and Brad's detailed process for utilizing AI coding agents like Cursor. They also emphasize the need for modern engineers to adapt to managing AI agents much like they manage human teams.
