Welcome, humans.
We’re going LIVE right now with Tom Occhino, Chief Product Officer at Vercel, the company that made it ridiculously easy for developers to turn ideas into live websites.
Tom's walking us through vibe coding with v0, Vercel's AI tool that lets you describe what you want and watch it build a working app right in front of you.
No coding experience needed. Just come watch, ask and learn!

Remember when building a website meant hiring a developer and waiting weeks? Or spending hours trying to figure out confusing technical setups?
Or if you’re already a developer, are you tired of manual deployments? Fighting with webpack configs? Waiting 20 minutes for CI/CD pipelines to maybe work?
If you've ever spent hours wrestling with ChatGPT trying to teach yourself to code while flying, or wrestling with deployment configs for hours instead of building features, this one's for you.
What we're covering on the stream:
- Live build using v0: watching a prompt turn into a working app in real time.
- What “vibe coding” actually means (and why teams are experimenting with it).
- How Vercel thinks about AI-assisted development, security, and scale.
- Product roadmap: where the Vercel ecosystem is headed next.
- Tom's insights from leading product at one of the most dev-loved platforms.
- Audience Q&A: bring your deployment questions!
Whether you're shipping web apps, managing frontend teams, or just trying to figure out how AI fits into your workflow without breaking everything, you'll walk away with a practical look at what's actually possible. Don’t miss out; come join us for an hour!

TOMORROW: We’re Going LIVE to Talk Gemini 3 Flash w/ Logan Kilpatrick of Google DeepMind
A surprise Logan appears! So Google just dropped Gemini 3 Flash—a model that outperforms Gemini 2.5 Pro (their last top model) while running 3x faster at less than 1/4 the cost. It's frontier-level reasoning at Flash-level speed, and it's rolling out globally right now.
Tomorrow at 9am PST (11am CT, 5 PM GMT/BST), we're sitting down with Logan Kilpatrick from Google DeepMind to explore what this actually means for developers, knowledge workers, and anyone trying to figure out how AI fits into their workflow.
What we'll cover:
- 🔥 Live demos – Logan will show us Gemini 3 Flash in action, from coding to multimodal understanding
- ⚡ What's now possible – Use cases that weren't practical with previous models (or weren't possible at all)
- 🛠️ Building together – We might wire up a tool live if Logan's game (we've got ideas)
- 💰 Intelligence too cheap to meter – We'll dig into the economics: when AI gets this powerful and this affordable, does it change the hiring calculus?
On that last point: right now, data shows AI is raising wages for AI-impacted roles because workers who use AI effectively can command higher salaries. But what happens when frontier intelligence costs $0.50 per million tokens? When does “intelligence as a commodity” flip from “AI makes workers more valuable” to “why hire a human?” We’ll see if we can get Logan’s take on this topic!
Key specs on Gemini 3 Flash:
- Outperforms Gemini 2.5 Pro across most benchmarks
- 3x faster than 2.5 Pro
- Less than 1/4 the cost of Gemini 3 Pro
- 1M token context window
- Advanced visual and spatial reasoning with code execution
- 78% on SWE-bench Verified (agentic coding)
- Rolling out globally in Gemini app, AI Mode in Search, and developer platforms
Logan has been at the center of Google's push to make frontier AI accessible to millions of developers. If you're shipping products, building with AI, or just trying to wrap your head around where this is all going, this conversation will give you clarity.

ICYMI: Sam Liang of Otter.ai On How Most enterprise knowledge dies in meetings (And What to Do About It).
Did you know meetings are your company’s most expensive activity? By Sam Liang’s measurements, your company spends 50% of payroll on meetings… and he has a plan to fix it.
You spend thousands—sometimes millions—paying people to sit in conference rooms, and 90% of what's discussed is forgotten within a week.
There's no ROI calculation, no way to measure value, and cross-functional teams are constantly reinventing the wheel because nobody knows what was decided three meetings ago.
Sam Liang, CEO of Otter.ai, built a company that's transcribed over 1B meetings and crossed $100M in annual revenue by solving this problem.
But Otter isn't just a transcription tool anymore… it's becoming an enterprise knowledge base that turns voice data into actionable intelligence.
In our latest episode, Sam breaks down how meetings went from the most wasteful activity in business to a goldmine of structured data:
- (4:48) Building a meeting-centric knowledge base: Why voice data is actually more valuable than written documents.
- (6:14) Calculate the cost of your meetings: Why this is your #1 expense (and you're not tracking it).
- (9:11) The Google Doc transcript problem: Transcripts sitting unused are as useless as no transcript at all.
- (17:34) Real-time leader dashboards: How executives track projects and team performance through meeting data.
- (18:49) Send your AI avatar to meetings: Yes, this is real… and it can ask questions on your behalf 🤯
- (21:45) AI agents that talk back: Otter can already answer questions mid-meeting by pulling from Salesforce… and soon, it will proactively contribute too (we might end up with fact check bots in every meeting!)
- (26:08) The dialect problem: Sam explains how voice AI handles accents, tone, and subtextual context in real-time voice AI.
- (37:25) 2027 prediction: Will your avatar attend board meetings while you're at the beach?
- (43:02) $1 billion in customer ROI: One financial firm says every 20 Otter seats = 1 full-time employee saved
Bottom line: If your team spends 30-50% of their time in meetings (and you do), that's your biggest expense. Otter proved you can measure it, optimize it, and turn those conversations into a searchable knowledge base that actually gets used.
