Filip Oborník

Filip runs Coffee Break s Filipem. He calls what he does “AI with sense.” That means one thing: he cares less about being first and more about people understanding it. He builds custom AI agents, and from the podcast you can see he actually digs into the work. That's rare.

Where we overlap: Claude Code Max at $200 a month. That's the center of everything. Markdown files like I use—the agent reads them at the start of each session and knows where it left off before.

But he does something extra. On his MacBook, an agent runs 24/7, hooked to Discord and Telegram. It reads requests, decides what to share on its own, publishes tips to the community. That showed me an agent doesn't have to be reactive. It can be autonomous.

And then there's how he talks about failure. He says when something didn't work. How he fixed it. No romance. I respect that.

I follow him because he lives in the same world. Mac, Claude, GitHub, Notion. No nonsense. And when I want to know how it actually works without the marketing noise, his format is exactly it.

Standa Faborský

Faborský runs Hack Your Way—a conference that drew 700 people last year. Sixteen years in marketing. That teaches you to see things differently. Now he does vibe coding and sells his knowledge through courses, subscriptions, and conferences. One thing: when he explains, it's not just technical. He solves for how it makes business sense too.

What I take from him is clear. First: numbers. In every video, every post. How much it costs per month. How many commits a month. How long it took. A number builds trust more than anything.

Second: he doesn't hide failure. He says where it broke, then how he fixed it. That's not the happy path. That's reality.

Third: he names things and gives them structure. Pyramid of vibe coding. Hack Your Way principles. Not just tips, but a skeleton. That gave me an idea: I should build my own framework too. Not just scattered notes.

I follow him because he shows vibe coding isn't a hobby. It's a way to run a business and sell what you build. That matters.

Michal Fiala and chatbuilders

chatbuilders.cz is a Czech video-first site about AI. Michal Fiala runs it. Their focus: how AI helps people who don't code and don't know where to start. The format is simple. Quick “AI News” videos around ten minutes, then long conversations about how people actually do things.

I take three things from them. First: how they number their content. They don't say “here are some tips.” They say “7 hard lessons for 300 thousand crowns.” Number, time, price. It kills hesitation.

Second: they show mistakes. When an agent answers confusingly, when ChatGPT mangles Czech pronunciation, when something tries twice—they don't cut it. They let you see how it really looks. That's something academic videos never show.

Third: there's always a concrete output. In five minutes. Not one line of code. That's not romance. That's honesty.

From Fiala and the guests he has, I learned how to talk about my work so it's useful. Not just enchanting.

AI at a glance

AI v kostce is another source I return to when I want to get oriented fast on what's new in AI. Short, in Czech, to the point—exactly what the name promises. When I don't have time for long videos, this gives me the shape of things in a few minutes.

Others

I watch elsewhere too. There's a lot of videos, podcasts, articles about AI in Czech. If I followed all of them, I'd only be watching. I know there's a lot happening fast in the space.

I won't list everything I've seen. This page is only for people who actually taught me something. A thing I take and use. An idea that changed how I think. A way of seeing things that carries forward.

This list will change. It's not static. When I learn from someone new, or when someone evolves, this will change. Credit matters.
