GenAI demos are easy. Production is where everything breaks. In this episode, Eduardo Ordax, Principal GTM GenAI at AWS, breaks down what actually stops companies from shipping reliable AI systems, and why the real blockers have little to do with technology. We dig into the culture problems that slow down adoption, the endless cycle of experimentation, and why non-deterministic LLMs don’t fit neatly into traditional web-app architectures. Eduardo also shares what he’s seeing across industries...

It’s Never Different This Time: LLM Reliability Without the Hype with Julien Simon
In this episode, Julien Simon, longtime voice in the open-source ML world, reminds us that even in the era of GenAI, reliability fundamentals haven’t changed. Julien breaks down why calling “the same model” from different providers can produce wildly different results, how deployment choices introduce hidden variability, and why reliability teams need to think of LLM systems as distributed systems. He explains the growing gap between experimentation and production, the operational pitfalls of...
