    AI-Engineering Workflows
    Jul 8 2026
    We just returned from three inspiring days at AI in the Alps, and in this episode, we dive into the most exciting breakthroughs and honest challenges facing industrial AI today. I share my firsthand impressions of revolutionary tools like TiRex-2, and we unpack what agentic AI really means for engineering, from breaking down data silos to transforming anomaly detection. Alongside Stefan Suwelack from Renumics, we discuss why skepticism has given way to optimism, how data infrastructure is finally catching up, and what the future holds for AI-driven organizations. The conversation is loaded with real-world examples, candid reflections, and a look at the evolving balance between sovereignty, open source, and big tech. Whether you’re an engineer, decision-maker, or just curious about the future of AI in industry, this episode offers practical insights and a glimpse into what’s next.

    TiRex-2 - a multivariate time series foundation model
    Jul 1 2026
    In this episode, I sit down with Levente Zolyomi, a leading PhD researcher at NXAI, to unpack the next evolution in time series AI: TiRex-2. We explore how TiRex-2 builds on its predecessor by handling complex multivariate data and streaming scenarios, opening new frontiers for industrial forecasting. Levente shares the story behind TiRex-2’s architecture, its breakthrough capabilities, and what sets it apart from transformer-based models like Kronos. I ask the questions you’re thinking—about zero-shot forecasting, synthetic data, and real-world benchmarks—so you can understand what matters most for your business. If you’re navigating industrial AI or just curious about the future of time series models, this conversation is packed with the insights you need.
