AI Wrote Your Bugs, AI Will Fix Your Bugs

There’s a lot of JavaScript developers these days not actually writing code. They whisper sweet prompts to our AI tools and hope for the best.

Agentic AI in Retail is Redefining How Brands Target and Monetize

Retail is no longer defined by the checkout counter or button. What used to end with a purchase has expanded into an always-on ecosystem of engagement, media, and service. Every interaction, from browsing to post-purchase, now carries both experience value and monetization potential. This shift has made Retail Media Networks (RMNs) the fastest-growing profit center for retailers, but their scale and complexity demand more than human-led operations or rule-based automation.
