There’s one library you need for building AI-powered apps in TypeScript: Vercel’s AI SDK.

At React Universe Conf 2025, Matt Pocock (Author of Total TypeScript) gives a hands-on crash course in AI SDK v5, showing how to integrate AI into React apps while avoiding vendor lock-in.

Skip the intro ⏩ 0:39

🔹 Why you should learn AI “from the outside in” by building apps, not studying internals
🔹 How the AI SDK provides one unified API for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, local models, and more
🔹 Using `generateText`, `generateObject`, `streamText`, and `streamObject` for powerful and type-safe workflows
🔹 Preventing model lock-in with simple provider swaps in a single line of code
🔹 Streaming results for faster time-to-first-token and real-time UI updates
🔹 Building AI agents with type-safe tool calls using Zod schemas
🔹 Why AI SDK v5 is more than a gateway; it’s a highway to production-ready AI apps

If you’re a TypeScript developer looking to bring AI into your applications, this is the talk you’ve been waiting for.
