Ryan welcomes Markus Eisele to the program to talk about why your coding agent should be writing Java. They talk about why the long history of Java both makes for a stable language and a source of training data for AI. On top of that, they discuss how agentic Java excels by working with powerful partners: a massive ecosystem of Java libraries and agentic harnesses.
