Episode Summary Cary Weston welcomes back Greg Howe, founder of Gimme Info, to hellp explain what two common AI terms are: agents and vibe coding. Greg breaks both down in a really practical way, using simple examples instead of technical jargon. He explains agents as purpose-built AI "job doers" that can handle tasks and make basic decisions along the way, and he describes vibe coding as building software by telling AI what you want in plain English. The conversation stays grounded in real business use, with a big focus on starting with a problem first instead of chasing shiny AI tools.
3 Key Takeaways
- Agents are easiest to understand as AI helpers with a specific job to do, kind of like a contractor with a tool belt instead of a single tool.
- Vibe coding lets people describe software in normal language and have AI build it, revise it, and improve it through back-and-forth conversation.
- The best starting point with both agents and vibe coding is not "how do I use AI?" but "what problem am I trying to solve?"
