What can LLMs actually do with messy, domain-heavy data? 🤖📊 @cedricclyburn.com & Andrew Igdal explore how LLMs can help query and explain complex residential energy data, where the models break down, and why humans still need to do the science. 🔗 www.dev2next.com/speaker/67ab...

3 million views on the IBM Technology whiteboard explainers this week 🤯 Still doesn't feel real. Best part is it's free :) for students, engineers, managers, people with no technical background at all, everyone can learn AI and tech in an accessible way. Thanks for watching, and keep learning!

The energy in SF at #AIWorldFair is electric ⚡️ I want to give a big thanks to the team for having me highlight the open source Docling (docling.ai) project & how to turn unstructured data into AI-ready formats like Markdown/JSON (or straight into LangChain and your agents 🤖) 🎥 youtu.be/-x5GEVnkuRw

You might’ve noticed I love open source and the impact that these projects have on the community 👀 that’s why this past week @devbcn.bsky.social I had the coolest opportunity to join my COUSIN who’s a PhD candidate and show open models + cloud-native for multi agent systems for research :)

This year @devoxx.uk we asked a simple question: can we use local models as AI code assistants? 🤔 The answer? Yes… and no! But you should check out the recording though and see what worked (like MCP, Skills.MD, and more) as well as what to know about local LLMs for devs :) 🎥 youtu.be/Lhqp7gKXu2w

AI coding tools are about to get more expensive, and the @anthropic.com news yesterday is a good indicator of what’s to come ($20 to $100 for Claude Code). Understandable, because GPU compute isn’t cheap 👀 Running models in-house with #vLLM is starting to look quite nice!

Cedric Clyburn @cedricclyburn.com · 17/04/2026

Had an AWESOME conversation with the @allthingsopen.bsky.social community about local LLMs on small hardware: model compression can quantize a model from 220 GB → 55 GB with <1% accuracy loss, and inference engines like vLLM help run them fast and efficiently. 🎥 www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGqV...

🤖 AI Agents are awesome… until they aren’t! What just happened with an 🦞 OpenClaw (ClawdBot/MoltBot) agent in the Matplotlib project on GitHub shows the potential challenges with giving AI Agents (LLM + Tools + Reasoning) the ability to act autonomously. It’s why guardrails and auth are important!
