    Evolving our calendar assistant Reclaim to be AI-native without starting over

    Dropbox engineers evolved their calendar assistant, Reclaim, to support natural-language AI requests by building a custom agent platform that integrates with existing scheduling logic. They utilized a shared action system and a Preview Mode backed by Redis to ensure AI suggestions are consistent and reviewable before affecting real calendars. This approach allows the product to adopt AI capabilities without fragmenting its core architecture or duplicating functionality.

    How we make AI coding more cost efficient without sacrificing task quality

    GitHub optimized GitHub Copilot to improve cost efficiency without sacrificing task quality by evaluating changes across the entire agentic workflow. The team implemented four targeted adjustments including selective output compression, removing unused line-number formatting, shortening prompts via meta-prompting with behavioral tests, and delivering background work completions directly. These modifications reduced token usage and model inference costs globally without causing task-success regressions.
