AI agents are completely transforming how enterprise data moves, but running them shouldn't break your token budget.
In this episode of Agents of Dev, Mitch Ashley and Brad Shimmin break down the massive infrastructure shifts coming out of Microsoft Build and Snowflake Summit. Discover how tools like Microsoft Fabric IQ, Project Rayfin, and Snowflake's "Coco" (Cortex Code) ecosystem are elevating metadata into actionable ontologies, shrinking token counts, and cutting operational costs.
They also discuss Anthropic’s unsettling Claude 4.8 self-awareness disclosures, evaluates Google’s incredibly fast, encoder-free Gemma 4 12B local model, and extracts a crucial software design lesson from Blue Origin’s recent launchpad failure.
