Everything João Moura said on any show that made the record, most notable first. Each card names its show and opens the statement there.
Moura: OpenAI's o1-mini struggles with agents by avoiding external tools
“Honestly, O one mini in my experience for agentic behaviors, sometimes falls short. Just because it already has kind of like chain of thought embedded on it. It tries to basically like Figure out everything itself without using any tools and kind of like outsm…”
João Moura: Cursor Will Not Replace Software Engineers Anytime Soon
“Again, silly me thinking that cursor is gonna replace engineer so soon. It's gonna take quite a while.”
Moura: 7B and 14B parameter models loop excessively as AI agents
“Smaller models, like smaller, or seven B, 14 B, they don't work as well. You can get them to behave as agents, but they usually take even longer because they go in so many blind alleys and keep like retrying things. So you definitely wants to go, like my go-to…”
Moura: Role framing in system prompts significantly changes LLM agent output
“Because these agents, they're kind of like impersonating roles. You do get different behaviors depending on, you do get different behaviors depending on how you give them like a different role. So you can actually replicate this on ChatGPT. Like if you ask Cha…”
Moura: Complex agent use cases require deterministic hooks for consistency
“As the use case has gotten more complex, you start to need more precision in more like a repeatability and consistency on their use cases. So usually people start with before and after hooks.”
Moura: AI coding agents accelerate 0-to-1, but 1-to-10 remains manual
“Definitely AI and agents and things like Devon now and like other solutions, they help a lot, but it's still like a lot of like, just making sure that from going, going from zero to one is very fast and getting faster and faster. Going one to 10 is still very …”
Moura: Agent behavior is tuned in YAML, while precision is enforced in Python
“A lot of like the optimization, like what happens, especially on the fuzziness parts, like on the actual agents is on these agents and tasks. I got a YAML files. It's where I can, like, you're going to be like spending a lot of time, like to make sure that you…”
Moura: CrewAI scaled its operations using its own AI agents
“From the get go, being able to use AI agents to scale an AI agent company was kind of like an interesting kind of like inception like experience.”
Moura: CrewAI agents do not require a 1:1 agent-to-task mapping
“With AI agents and crew AI specifically, you don't need to have one agent to one task. It's not necessarily one to one.”
Moura: Email feels too consolidated to be an obvious startup idea
“It's funny when you think about email, like it's not kind of like your go to, you can like startup if you're trying to think about starting a business feels like such a consolidated market.”
Moura: B2B marketing collateral should empower internal champions in meetings
“One thing that I would think is I would love to send a lead materials that they would like to show in a meeting. Right? Like imagine saying something so beautiful that they are okay taking that and going back to their team and show like, oh, let me show you wh…”
Moura: PwC is currently using CrewAI in production

Moura: Over 100,000 people enrolled in CrewAI's DeepLearning.AI agent courses
“We have over a 100,000 people that enrolled on those courses.”
Moura: CrewAI Enterprise Automatically Converts Workflows Into APIs
“The thing is once that you're using the enterprise that automatically becomes an API.”
Moura: CrewAI Enables Direct Export of React UI Components
“Or if you want to, you can also export a UI. You can export a react component right from here.”
Moura: CrewAI flow plot generates visual architecture diagrams for agent workflows
“You can do now crew AI flow plot. And that will actually plot you a visual showing exactly what is happening with your flow. So you can see what are the crews that you have in there. You can see what are the inputs, like what are the different kind of like fun…”
