New Podcast Episode: The Story Behind Our Four-Day Build
What can one builder and a team of AI collaborators ship in just four days?
In a new episode of The Age We Build podcast we go behind the scenes of Morrowward’s OpenAI Build Week journey—from discovering the hackathon through a QR code after the event had already started to shipping a production application, iPhone and Mac companions, a demo video, and a complete Devpost submission four days later.
This is not just a recap of what we built. It is an honest conversation about how we built it, including:
- 44 commits in four days
- Human–AI collaboration, delegation, and discernment
- Production safeguards for financial education
- Late-stage bugs and unexpected engineering challenges
- The stamina required to turn a deeply personal idea into working software
- Why AI still needs human taste, judgment, responsibility, and technical rigor
We also explore a bigger question raised by the experience:
Could agentic AI tools expand who gets to become a software builder—without removing the need for human judgment and engineering discipline?

We would love for you to listen and share your thoughts:
What does the future of building look like when one person can collaborate with an entire team of AI agents?
