So I'm Ali. Been coding since I was in college. Started with the usual web dev stuff, React, Next.js, building apps for clients. It paid the bills but something felt missing.

Then one day I saw a demo of an AI agent booking a restaurant reservation by itself. No human in the loop. That was it for me. I dropped everything else and went all in on agentic AI.

Best decision I ever made, honestly.

Most of my week goes into OpenAI Agent SDK and n8n. I wire up AI agents that do real stuff. Like, they can pick up the phone and call someone, pull data from three different APIs, send a follow-up email, all without me touching anything.

Not chatbots. Actual workers. They figure out the next step, do it, and move on.

Every week I stand in front of a class at Governor Sindh Initiative for GenAI, Web3, and Metaverse. Over 1,500 students so far. We start from scratch, basic Python, and by the end they're shipping their own AI agents. Some of them now build better stuff than I did when I started.

Funny thing about teaching, it forces you to actually understand what you're talking about. Can't fake it when 30 people are staring at you waiting for an answer.

Look, AI isn't going to replace developers. But developers who know how to use AI? They'll run circles around everyone else. That's the bet I'm making.

I break things constantly. Half my GitHub is failed experiments. But every now and then something clicks and I go "oh, THAT'S how it should work." Those moments keep me going.
