Dynamics CornerShow Notes
In this episode of Dynamics Corner, Kris and Brad are joined by Volodymyr Dvernytskyi — a BC developer from Ukraine, a recent Microsoft MVP, and the creator of many open-source tools — for a grounded, practical look at what AI-assisted AL development actually looks like in the real world. Volodymyr doesn't sugarcoat it: AI has made code cheaper to produce, but that speed comes with a trap that most developers aren't talking about yet.

In this episode of Dynamics Corner, Kris and Brad welcome back Torben Leth, Microsoft MVP and creator of CentralGauge, for a follow-up conversation about how much has changed in just a few months. A lot has changed. Torben's benchmarks that used to separate the good models from the great ones? The models blew right past them. They're so good now that he has to completely redo his test sets just to find meaningful differences. The real gem in this conversation is Torben's Eureka moment for any...

The discussion then moves to a common question for both partners and customers: with options like RDLC, Word, Excel, Power BI, analysis mode, and...
In this episode of Dynamics Corner, Kris and Brad sit down with Microsoft MVP Miljan Milosavljević, an active contributor to Microsoft's repos, for a wide-ranging conversation that ranges from post-conference highlights to a question nobody in the BC world has fully answered yet. Miljan drops a stat that catches everyone's attention: 95% of his code is now generated by GitHub Copilot, and he's doing it with almost no instruction files, no subagents, and no elaborate setup. Just clean prompts ...
In this episode of Dynamics Corner, Kris and Brad sit down with Lisa Cole, Chief Marketing and AI Officer at 2X and author of Brain Gravity and The Limitless CMO, for a conversation that every business leader, marketer, and partner needs to hear. Lisa drops a stat that reframes everything: 85% of the time, buyers have already formed their finalist list before they ever talk to a human, and over 90% of the time, they pick the company that was already in the top spot. So how do you get on that ...
