What can you build with AI when your background is infrastructure, not programming? Fred Nix joins Basti to share how he uses Omarchy and AI coding agents to turn ideas into practical tools—from photo workflows to iMessage integrations.
They explore the shift from writing code to defining outcomes, the economics of AI-built software, and why junior talent still matters. Basti shares his perspective on Omarchy security: monitoring agent activity, reviewing plugins, and investigating vulnerabilities.
Along the way, they discuss persistent AI sessions, local versus frontier models, accessible computing, and the community bringing these projects together.
