×Last week OpenAI released a new model called O1 - which has advanced capabilities to reason and does a lot better in maths and coding. How does it do this and what does this change? This and more in this episode.
In the world of many open source LLM models, Google Gemma stands out with some unique capabilities. Firstly its made by Google after all - so its implementation is fully optimized and memory efficient. This and more on what is Gemma about and how its better.
This episode dives into the exciting world of on-device AI, specifically Large Language Models (LLMs) running directly on your smartphone! We'll explore why cramming this powerful tech into your pocket is a game changer, and discuss how LLMs can transform your daily interactions with your phone.
In this episode we cover the latest updates from Google IO and OpenAI Spring update. The all new ChatGPT-o and Gemini 1.5 Flash. We talk about where are LLMs headed next.
Lama3 is a popular open source model by Meta, the company behind Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp. They have release the next iteration of the famous Lama2 model, this is a popular open source LLM which is heavily used by developers world wide. Is the new iteration strong enough to take on the best closed source models? We explore in this episode.…
As we move to use LLMs more and more for different use cases, we will run into at times issues or limitations with the model. There are many different ways to train the model to do a specific task better, and fine tuning is one of them. What is about, when do we need to use it and how do we do it - all in this episode.…

This episode covers my journey as a GDE over the last few years, what got me into it, and what is the big outcome. Also joined another category for GDE in Machine Learning.
In this episode I share my thoughts on the latest additional to AI development called Deven, and where the industry is moving towards. Will software engineering be taken over by AI in the next few years?
So this week we had 2 back to back announcements which completely shook up the LLM worlds. Gemini Pro 1.5 with its 10 million token context length makes it super powerful to run on large codebases and a lots of documents. The other big news was the launch of OpenAI Sora - their new text to video generation which can now generate super realistic videos for up to a minute. How will these impact our tool, I share some thoughts here.…
The all new heavy weight model has just dropped this week. Should you be rushing to try it out? Why is the ultra model better? This and more in his quick episode talking about Gemini Ultra.
In this episode - we discover the Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) process which allows us to train our LLMs using our data. In this short episode we cover what is this about and how can we use it.
If you are using ChatGPT or Bard - you are "prompting" the AI to get some answers. Not all prompts are made equal. The response of the LLM depends heavily on the quality of the prompt and the context given to it. Thus its worth while spending some time understanding prompt engineering and how to do it properly.…
Referencing the classic episode from IT Crowd - we take our first dive into the world of LLMs by talking about neural nets and how they form the basis of the LLMs we know today. We touch on the famous paper - All you need is attention, and then talk about what LLMs under the hood are really about.
After a year long break - Im back with an update on Gemini and Gen AI taking over. In this episode I talk about the over all impact of Gemini and LLMs and how can we use them better in our daily lives.
I had a great chat with Lamak, who works at one of the startups in Karachi called Bazaar Tech. We discussed several interesting topics including team structures, full stack development, performance reviews and more! Thanks Lamak for taking time out for this episode of EngineeringLeadershipPakistan.

You can also watch this on the KarachiWalaDeveloper Youtube channel.…
This is the first episode of the all new series where I will be interviewing Engineering Leaders in Pakistan. We will be talking about leadership topics like CTO roles, hiring, performance reviews, feedback and more. In this episode we have Hunain Kapadia from Smart Benefits sharing about this experience building the some awesome tools in the insurance space.…
Software Engineers require instructions in order to build apps and tools. And most of us don't know what these instructions should look like. One of the ways these instructions can be shared is in the form of user stories, and it's not just about writing a bunch of text, but comprehensive check list of how this should be structured so the right information can be given to the builder. Ofcourse its a two way effort Product and Engineering need to work closely to build up such requirements so they make sense from a functionality perspective, and a technical perspective. This session is based on the article linked below: https://martinfowler.com/articles/product-backlog-building-canvas.html…
Google, or any of the FAANG companies for that matter, are an awesome place to work. When I started by bachelors - I was thinking of graduating and then getting a job there, or build a pathway to a job there. However by the time I graduated, my mind set had changed. In this episode I explore my thoughts and reasoning on what changed my mind and why I havnt applied since.…
With startups going bust left right and center, high inflation and a global recession - are startups still the right choice to be at? In this episode I talk about the difference between the companies treating engineering teams as a profit center vs a cost center, to show why startup engineering teams as usually a better choice even if there is a slightly higher risk being there.…
In this episode I break down a good engineering culture using two different culture tests from the web. We take a deep dive into the technical side of the culture first, followed by the work and management culture. How does your company score - what is the one thing you would change in your company to make it a better experience?…
Javascript is one of my favourite languages out there. Im not sure if it just the familiarity with the language (have been using it since age 10) or the fast pace of change in the language space or the fact its being used on space craft - I think its a useful skill to have for anyone working in the software industry. Check out my rant on what makes JS so awesome according to me!…
As programmers we work hard all day to ensure we build the best products in the best technical way possible, and if that work isn't shipped to customers right away, we are unable to generate any value of it for the company / product. DevOps plays a critical role in our organisations today, and ensure we have an efficient production line shipping features to our customers is a part of it. In this episode we review how we can better understand and measure performance of our software delivery and what does it take to compete with the best out there.…
While mentoring some students with technical interviews, I documented what I find to be most important qualities of a software developer or engineer. While a quick google search online will find mixed reviews, most people feel that technical skills are most important. However I feel a bit differently about this, and in this episode share the things all software engineers should focus on and how they can improve them selves if lacking.…
The recent failure of the startup Fast got me thinking of things one needs to be aware of while considering to join a startup and things to observe while working in one. This episode covers some basics to what you can do before and after joining which should help you prepare better for the risks involved while working in a startup. This episode was inspired by the following post: https://newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/the-scoop-fast?s=r…
Technical Due Diligence (DD) for startups is not something we think about until the time really comes in. When we get the list of questions or get asked those dreaded questions that we always knew would come to haunt us. In this episode I share about what is the process and what to expect from this, so that one can be better prepared when this happens.…
T-Shaped developers are those interested in learning across a breadth of technologies ranging from frontend to backend to devops. In this episode we try to understand why would we want to diversify vs specialise and is there a better option between the two?
Do you feel your team is very sluggish and not moving fast enough? Do you feel there are constant blockers which are stopping the features to get shipped? In this episode I dive into the world of engineering performance and what are some thing of the useful things you can measure, and which ones are not meant to be measured at all.…
You might have been reading about one of the dozen multi-million dollar investments made into startup recently. And you might be wondering how do I get a piece of that action. Most companies now offer their shares to employees through whats called an ESOP. This allows you to accrue value over time and if the company wins big - so do you! This and more in this episode.…
PCI DSS is a security standard certification which a company requires if they have card payment integrations on their websites. However its one of those topics which sounds scary, not talked about enough and is very specific to each company. So understanding even if it is a requirement for your company becomes a pain. In this episode I share my experience going through the certification with Sastaticket and what I learnt during that.…
