Nemotron 3.5 Lightning is a vivid local model. It consistently invents specific, compelling detail. In controlled throughput tests, it out-generated Gemma 4 on raw tokens/sec, and delivered twice the distinct ideas on an open-ended brainstorm. #AgenticAI #LLMs #AIAgents

Muse Glimmer is not a replacement for latency-sensitive tasks. But for output quality and reasoning depth over raw speed (e.g., planning, content generation, multi-round review), it's the most interesting open-weight model I've tested this year. #AgenticAI #LLMs #AIAgents

If you are in the #bioinformatics or #genomics space, Phylo is worth checking out. I am interested to see where they go from here.

DiffusionGemma generates 256 tokens per step and can rewrite any of them mid-generation. #GenerativeAI

I already knew much of what's in this book and I still learned something from every chapter. That's AI Engineering by Chip Huyen. #BookReview

Every AI agent needs config, logging, evals, and guardrails. I built a template so you don't have to. #AIAgents

Scaling an MCP server is mostly a solved problem. Scaling what's behind it is where things get interesting. #MCP

Pydantic AI's new capabilities feature quietly solves the biggest problem in agent code: reuse. Here's what stood out to me in v2: #AIAgents

Some great tools coming out of Google for identifying deepfakes, tracing the provenance of images and ensuring that AI bridges communities. Talk by Chris Bregler at the #AgenticAISummit. #AgenticAI

Understanding model cognition with Eric Ho at the #AgenticAISummit. Important for reverse-engineering what's going on in a model's weights during inference. #AgenticAI

AI-accelerated chip tradeoffs being discussed by Peter DeSantis at the #AgenticAISummit. It's cool. Chip design is something I don't know much about in depth. #AgenticAI
