I'm not convinced the AI bubble exists
The AI bubble is a speculative concept that the AI industry is extremely over-valued. If true, the value of most companies involved in AI (several of whom are worth well over a trillion dollars) will collapse, devastating the entire economy. If you check any online discussion about the financial situation …

Agent memory needs its OpenTelemetry moment
Every agent tool stores memory in its own shape, and every week someone builds another one. None of them can read the others. Observability had the same problem until OpenTelemetry gave everyone one data model to share. A tour of today's memory formats, the proposals that already exist, and what a shared spec could…

Goodbye Claude, hello Pi
I’ve been a longtime Claude Code user, ever since it became available in the Claude Pro subscription plan over a year ago. I remember the first time I used it, feeling giddy as it spat out messy Python code for whatever random weekend project I was working on, all from a single prompt. I’m certain that in a few years…

The end of Microsoft Research's AI Frontiers group
In 2023 after the ChatGPT release, it was clear to me that research needed to be more organized to succeed than was typical within Microsoft Research . The amount of support and focus which other research groups were applying was great enough that even with a clever idea pursued by one person it was likely to arrive…

Every Mac comes with an (undocumented) family member classifier
Every Mac since macOS 13 (2022) ships a pair of daemons whose only purpose in life is to build a graph about who you are, who you know, how those people are related to you and to each other, how you communicate with them, where you go, what you do and when. In this post, we look into how this system works and give you…

The Components of Agent Memory
For Claude to learn from experience, it has to decide what’s worth remembering before it knows what’s next. Here’s how “dreaming” helps it organize memory and correct mistakes.
