Hierarchy, consensus, adversarial debate, and reality show knock-outs. We can design more reliable multi-agent systems with inspiration from human systems but there are fundamental differences and workarounds. #ai #llm #systemDesign #reliabilityEngineering blog.alexewerlof.com/p/multi-agen...

Do LLMs have emergent properties or not? As an interactive systems engineer, I feel I have to set the record straight: emergence isn’t an objective phenomenon and due to the architecture of LLMs, they sure have emergent (both weak and strong emergence). blog.alexewerlof.com/p/emergent-p...

Emergent properties
What are nominal, weak and strong emergent properties and how to identify and mitigate their negative impact in system design?

I like an AI that can challenge me but in this case, the AI is factually wrong!!! 😂

Google Antigravity is so new the Gemini extension running in the same window has no clue about it! 🤯 Upon initialization, Antigravity installed all my VS Code extensions, one of which is Gemini Code assist! See the conversation below!!!

✋ Do you want to run your own AI with zero programming effort? I've made a completely free and open source product called Local Browser AI for Google Chrome Built-in AI Hackathon. You can check it out and maybe vote for me, if you feel like it is worth it. devpost.com/software/loc... #llm #ai #oss

How do you assess the quality of a metric? How do you balance the cost measurement against ROI and complexity? #SLI Compass is a 2D mental model to facilitate evaluation, investment, and evolution of metrics. Examples and illustrations here: blog.alexewerlof.com/p/sli-compass

How do you know it's time to change jobs? What signals do you look for?

⭐️ If your workforce is not as diverse as the market you're trying to address, some customer segments will inevitably be favored while the others are ignored.

⭐️ When b.s. is not challenged, it'll spread like wild fire. If people are too scared or don't care to challenge b.s. you need to find the root cause instead of going ahead executing it.

⭐️ If someone claps for your every idea without ever questioning you, they're not adding value (unless you need approval so badly that you're literally willing to pay for it).

⭐️ Promote honesty, kindness, integrity and outcome instead of acting nice, agreeableness, show-off, and fake output that's not connected to outcome.

⭐️ When great leaders leave the door, many others follow (unless the job market is crap and you end up with a bunch demotivated canaries in a golden cage). 🙃

⭐️ In every organization, there are well respected competent doers and truth tellers. Identify them as "canary in the coal mine" because when they leave, the org collapses.

⭐️ People either work or put up a show. Find the silent ones and include their perspective in the decisions.

⭐️ You cannot pay your way out of systemic issues caused by poor leadership. Don't waste money changing the tires when the GPS is broken.

Incompetent leaders surround themselves with "yes people" and seek advice from external management consultancies. #leadership #ceo #cto #upperManagement #truthSeeking #growthMindset
