We have seen in especially 2026 as coding agents have been changing the nature of how AI and machine learning projects are being built.
But one element we're noticing is engineers who ship them, are they still in control of what they're building?
How do you work with a coding agent without essentially losing the plot to what you're building?
When it comes to Cloud Code or OpenAI's Codex, what are the workflows and frameworks that really drive your team?
So on this episode, I'm sitting down with Caltech CTV instructor, Dr. Mike France, who's director of AI at Predoc, and Dr. John Chung, a special solutions architect at Databricks.
Both of these gentlemen hold PhDs in neuroscience from USC.
when I spent both of their careers working on some of the hardest parts of getting machine learning into production.
Um, Mike brings a practitioner's view on how to getting machine learning into production, how to deliberately work with coding agents.
And John brings a deep expertise in helping enterprise team build and ship ML solutions.
So together we're going to, I don't know, what did we say as, as, as Jenny, we're going to delve into what production looks like, the different workflows we have and how a background in neuroscience helps out.
So to start it out, let's, let's start with definitions of, in your view, respectively, what is a coding agent?
And either of you can take the ball on this.
John, John, what's your go-to definition for an agent?
How do you think about this?
That seems like to meet both the business and the techies in the room.
Okay, so let's look at a little bit of backgrounds here.
Mike, you research neuroplasticity in medicine.
recovery and John, you studied systems neuroscience, and you really touched on how the brain processes information.
Is there anything in your educational backgrounds that you found in neuroscience studying that helped you apply to how you work with agents today?
Yeah, I was going to, what scar tissue slash benefits were you able to gain through getting a PhD in neuroscience?
