Prompts are becoming Code, but we still treat them like Strings

Prompts used to be just text. You wrote a few sentences, pasted them into a chat box, tweaked the wording, and moved on. If the output was not good, you tried again. Nothing else depended on it. The cost of getting it wrong was close to zero. That phase did not last long. In The … Continue reading Prompts are becoming Code, but we still treat them like Strings →

The Illusion of Output

AI makes it easy to produce output. You can generate code, designs, marketing ideas, user flows, or even a prototype in a few minutes. It looks impressive on the surface. It also creates a trap. People start to believe output means productivity. It does not. Output is cheap now. Anyone can create something. The real … Continue reading The Illusion of Output →

My Engineering Workflow in CursorAI

Every Software Engineer follows a similar rhythm: Understand requirement → Design → Plan → Implement → Review → Test → Deploy → Monitor. That hasn’t changed for a long time. When AI is involved in the workflow, what’s changed is the speed. I also mentioned this in my FREE eBook about adapting AI in Software … Continue reading My Engineering Workflow in CursorAI →

How to Create a ChatGPT App Using MCP (Model Context Protocol) Step by Step

OpenAI just announced the Apps SDK during OpenAI DevDay 2025. It quietly introduced something important, transforming ChatGPT from a Chat app to an App Platform. I wanted to understand how this works in practice, so I decided to build something small: a to-do app (because, well, this is something you build when you learn something … Continue reading How to Create a ChatGPT App Using MCP (Model Context Protocol) Step by Step →

Testing Claude Sonnet 4.5, GPT-5 Codex, and Grok Code Fast 1 in Cursor: Which model fits best for development?

It has only been a few days since Anthropic announced their new model Claude Sonnet 4.5, and I wanted to see for myself if the hype matches reality. Instead of reading benchmarks, I opened Cursor and ran some coding tests to feel it as an end user. My goal with this test wasn’t to cover … Continue reading Testing Claude Sonnet 4.5, GPT-5 Codex, and Grok Code Fast 1 in Cursor: Which model fits best for development? →

Why does MCP matter? A Deep Dive for Engineers

Everyone's talking about MCP (Model Context Protocol) and how it's supercharging workflows in tools like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other desktop apps. And yeah, the integrations with desktop environments are cool. But honestly, MCP is way more than just these integrations for desktop applications. You’ve probably seen folks compare MCP to USB-C for AI. It’s … Continue reading Why does MCP matter? A Deep Dive for Engineers →

The Turning Point in AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been evolving for decades, but we’ve now hit an inflection point where AI is moving from research labs into everyday tools, and everyone now talks about AI. Just as electricity transformed every industry a century ago, AI is in a position to have a similar sweeping impact. In particular, the emergence … Continue reading The Turning Point in AI →

My memo to the team about AI trend

The rise of AI is no longer just a hype, it’s reshaping the way we work, especially in engineering. Over the past year, I’ve heard a lot of conversations about whether AI will replace software engineers. I’ve said this before, and I still stand by it: AI won’t replace engineers. But it will change the … Continue reading My memo to the team about AI trend →

What I learned using CursorAI every day as an Engineer

CursorAI is an AI-powered code editor (built on VS Code) that integrates a large language model (LLM) directly into your development workflow. Instead of just autocompleting code, Cursor can predict multi-line edits, apply changes across your codebase, and even answer questions about your code. I have shared that if you use AI effectively, it will … Continue reading What I learned using CursorAI every day as an Engineer →

The Missing Piece in AI Adoption for Organizations

AI tools are being plugged into more workflows every day, from writing code to analyzing data. But here’s the reality most leaders are starting to see: Adding AI doesn’t magically deliver value. In fact, without the right foundation, it can slow teams down. Many organizations are trying AI tools, hoping for quick wins, but often, … Continue reading The Missing Piece in AI Adoption for Organizations →
