  • MCP servers and the role tech writers can play in shaping AI capabilities and outcomes -- podcast with Fabrizio Ferri Beneditti and Anandi Knuppel
    Oct 26 2025
    In this podcast episode, Fabrizio Ferri Benedetti and I chat with guest Anandi Knuppel about MCP servers and the role that technical writers can play in shaping AI capabilities and outcomes. Anandi shares insights on how writers can optimize documentation for LLM performance and expands on opportunities to collaborate with developers around AI tools. Our discussion also touches on ways to automate style consistency in docs, and the future directions of technical writing given the abundance of AI tools, MCP servers, and the central role that language plays in it all.

  • Recording of AI book club session of 'Hands-On Large Language Models: Language Understanding and Generation', by Jay Alammar and Maarten Grootendorst
    Oct 26 2025
    This is a recording of our AI book club discussion of Hands-On Large Language Models: Language Understanding and Generation by Jay Alammar and Maarten Grootendorst, held Oct 19, 2025. The book differs from other books in the series in that it's a more technical exploration of how LLMs work, without any ethics discussions. It's less narrative and more engineering-oriented. Our discussion focuses on understanding of conceptual details and whether, to use an analogy, understanding the plane's engine helps pilots fly the airplane better.

  • Podcast: How AI is changing the role of technical writers to context curators and content directors
    Sep 28 2025
    In this conversational podcast, Fabrizio Ferri Benedetti (Passo.uno) and I talk about the impact of AI on the technical writing profession. We tackle the anxiety, seen and felt almost everywhere, but especially on Reddit, within the community about job security and analyze the evolution of the technical writer's role into a more strategic context curator or content director. We also cover practical applications of AI, such as using agents markdown files to guide language models (with style overrides or API reference contexts), and the role documentation plays in improving AI's outputs (Fabri's phrase AI must RTFM).
