AI EngineerThe Log Is Your Agent, and Your Deepest Lock-In
Agent identity is the append-only log, not the model. This makes log ownership the deepest lock-in—a talk with sharp insights and a product pitch.
AI EngineerAgent AI: Benchmark Scores Mean Little Without Production Evaluation
Agent benchmarks rise but production reliability lags. Treat evaluation as a live control plane, not just offline tests. Meta shows why.
Hugging FaceLocal AI Works, but Your Coding Agent Harness Matters More
Local AI is real: quantization runs competitive models on a MacBook, but harness choice—not just the model—determines success and security risks.
Latent SpaceThe Agent OS and the End of CDC
Databricks open-sourced Omnigen for agent governance and LTAP to eliminate ETL, but production readiness is still unproven.
IBM TechnologySocial Engineering Won’t End; It’s Shifting to Your Agents
Social engineering won’t stop; it’ll target AI agents instead of people. The threat surface is moving, and your IAM isn't ready.
InfoQDurable Agents Need Workflow Engines, Not Whole-Loop Sandboxes
Separating agent reasoning from tool execution in a durable workflow engine prevents state loss, eliminates idle waits, and provides an audit trail.
InfoQContext Bloat Will Drain Your AI Budget—Fix It with Just-in-Time Tools
Unused MCP servers silently multiply token costs by 175x. Gateways and registries enable just-in-time tool delivery—but real-world proof is absent.
InfoQAI’s Real Bottleneck: Context, Not Compute
CAST’s graph halved token use and doubled accuracy, letting a team cut a mainframe modernization from 7.5 years to 3.
AWS DevelopersThe System Prompt Is Your Agent's Real Strategy, Not the Model
Tools turn an LLM into an agent, but the system prompt is the real strategy. MCP aims to turn internal APIs into agent capabilities without custom code.
AssemblyAIVoice Agents Get Smarter Transcription, But Vendor Lock-in Looms
Promptable speech-to-text aims to fix voice agent disambiguation failures, but early demos leave real-world accuracy and vendor lock-in questions unanswered.
