AI Agents in Action: Real Examples, Real Frameworks, Real Fun-gents (?)

In this episode, Jess and Kyle dive deep into real-world AI agent use cases, moving beyond theory to show you how you can create an AI agent today. They share their framework for identifying which tasks should become agents (versus simple automations), walk through actual examples they've built, and introduce the concept of "fun-gents" - low-stakes AI projects perfect for beginners. Plus, they cover Anthropic's major legal victory and why one startup's controversial "cheating" AI is getting roasted online.
