Sonal ChokshiHOST

Well, and I also think...
Sonal ChokshiHOST
60:41
It's kind of magical because when I think of the beginning of computing, it's saying hello world.
Sonal ChokshiHOST
60:48
That's what the first words a software developer will type into new programs.
Robert HackettHOST
60:52
Imagine if it was ahoy world.
TiberiusHOST
17:07
Like, I don't know how to program in C, right? I've never programmed in C.
TiberiusHOST
17:12
Beyond, I think I wrote a Hello World program once and then was like, this is awful.
TiberiusHOST
17:16
I'd never want to do this again.
TiberiusHOST
17:17
But if you handed me a C programming language, I'm fairly confident I could at least go through it and have a vague concept of what's going on.
Leo DionHOST
28:28
And then what would be an example, I guess, of a tool for taking that input and formatting it so it could be used by
Daniel SteinbergGUEST
28:38
the model? So the Hello World tool that they always demonstrate is a weather tool because, you know, that's really easy.
Daniel SteinbergGUEST
28:46
Another one that I often do is a map tool because I can query the map APIs.
Daniel SteinbergGUEST
28:50
Well, Apple this year, as part of OS 27, gave us three tools.
Erik OnarheimHOST
47:21
And when he was at Bell Labs, he's the co-author of the original C book.
Erik OnarheimHOST
47:26
He's the one that popularized Hello World.
Erik OnarheimHOST
47:29
So yeah, this is a fantastic, and he's such a wonderful person to listen to, has a fantastic recounting of the early days, uh, bell labs and building, building seat.
Kamran AyubHOST
47:43
Yeah.
Anthony NocentinoGUEST
28:41
I don't have to remember PowerShell commandlets.
Anthony NocentinoGUEST
28:43
I don't have to go and memorize the REST API or learn Python, which my best Python script was Hello World.
Anthony NocentinoGUEST
28:50
But this is the power that we're able to get out of these systems now, authentically, and be able to drive outcomes.
Anthony NocentinoGUEST
28:56
Now, dial that even further with agents and skills, so then I can define what good looks like in my environment.
CJ ReynoldsPANELIST
65:19
And I think there are certain keywords and things within quotes that will actually become executable.
CJ ReynoldsPANELIST
65:26
But this big, long paragraph here is essentially a Hello World program in Kill Switch.
CJ ReynoldsPANELIST
65:33
I guess one of the ideas here, it got my mind working because if you made a language that had a bunch of keywords that triggers the cybersecurity alert of models, so let's say every variable just was like root or exploit or something like that.
CJ ReynoldsPANELIST
65:48
Now, when you ask an AI to help you with that, it'll probably just refuse immediately.
Brian KernighanGUEST
0:06
Absolutely.
Ryan PetermanHOST
0:08
This is Brian Kernaghan, ex-Bell Labs technical staff, co-author of the original C book and the man who popularized Hello World.
Ryan PetermanHOST
0:15
And I asked him all about what it was like working there.
Brian KernighanGUEST
0:18
There were no deadlines.

Ryan PetermanHOST
62:39
So
Ryan PetermanHOST
62:39
maybe Robert copied your
Ryan PetermanHOST
62:42
Hello World repo and used it to start Git.
Brian KernighanGUEST
62:45
I never used Git at that point.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:04
So right now it's My Mac is selected.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:06
So it's gonna run my app, this Hello World app that it bui- built for us here, on my Mac as a Mac app, which is kinda cool.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:15
But I told you we're gonna start running it on an iPhone.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:19
We're gonna build our app on an iPhone first.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:46
It's going to actually launch another app.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:49
This is the iOS simulator, and it ran our app.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:51
There it is, Hello World.
Paul HegartyHOST
21:53
Now, this is cooler than you think because not only did it go and run our Hello World app, but this is a full iPhone that can be simulated.
