Can AI Make Developer Education Fun Again? | Twilio World, Voice Agents & the Future of Learning

In this episode of Coffee with Developers, we sit down with Alex Goldman, Developer Educator at Twilio, live from Twilio Signal in San Francisco.

Alex shares the vision behind Twilio World, a new AI-powered, game-inspired learning experience that aims to replace traditional developer training with interactive missions, puzzles, storytelling, and real-world problem solving inside actual Twilio environments. Instead of watching tutorials or completing LMS courses, developers learn by building, debugging, and exploring live systems with AI as a companion.
