In this Reality Bytes reunion, Tom, Sean, Tim, Oriana and Megan unpack the buzzy rise of vibe coding — the AI-assisted development trend coined by Andrej Karpathy and already explored by companies like Meta and Microsoft. The panel digs beneath the hype: from accelerated prototyping and accessibility gains to serious risks around technical debt, shadow applications, governance, security and the loss of human accountability. Oriana and Megan highlight the importance of schema, context and genuine creativity, while Tim warns against mistaking speed for quality. Is vibe coding the future - or just another fragile shortcut?

In a wide-ranging conversation, Robb Wilson—CEO and co-founder of OneReach.ai and author of The Age of Invisible Machines—joins Tim and Tom to explore the rise of agentic AI and its seismic implications for IT, organizations, and society. Robb breaks down the concept of agent runtimes, why conversational interfaces matter more than ever, and how adaptive, self-orchestrating systems will reshape work far beyond today’s service models.

Tim, Tom, and Oriana sit down with Monica Filak, Director of Customer Success at Nexthink, to explore what it really takes to turn DEX from a tool into a transformative methodology. Monica shares how her team helps organizations move beyond technology to rethink their people, processes, and communication — bridging the long-standing divide between IT and the business. From creative internal branding to AI-driven efficiency gains, she explains how companies can evolve from “shiny tool” thinking to achieving measurable, human-centered value.

It’s a milestone moment! Our 200th episode of The DEX Show (and the first ever late one — sorry about that!). To mark the occasion, Nexthink Founder and CEO Pedro Bados returns to reflect on Nexthink’s incredible journey and discuss the company’s next era — from the recent investment by Vista Equity Partners to the accelerating fusion of DEX and AI. Pedro shares his perspective on how AI is reshaping the workplace, Nexthink’s vision for “an IT agent for every employee,” and why he’s optimistic about the future of technology and innovation. A landmark conversation to celebrate our big birthday.
