Transforming Debugging and Root Cause Detection with Sentry | David Cramer

The AI Native Dev - from Copilot today to AI Native Software Development tomorrow

On this episode of AI Native Dev, David Cramer, co-founder of Sentry, joins Guy Podjarny to talk about what it really takes to ship faster with LLMs built into the workflow, and why over 4 million devs rely on Sentry to do it right.
On the docket:
• how Sentry’s moat is built on deeply interconnected app data
• why David prefers Cursor over Claude
• how a cynical mindset kills AI adoption before it begins
