I’ve been discussing the inevitable progression that LLM companies are taking toward agentic AI capabilities for some time now on my blog and social media. My Model Context Protocol series explored how Claude (and any AI product) can go from a mere chatbot to an AI agent capable of taking actions on your behalf. OpenAI…

In our previous posts we looked at what exactly MCP is and how it works behind the scene. Now it’s time to tie it all together and build some useful stuff with MCP. Before we begin, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. I used Claude with MCP to help me write…

In our previous post, we introduced the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and how it transforms our dear Claude from a knowledgeable yet impotent AI into a helpful digital butler who can actually interact with your files, apps, and services. Now it’s time to draw back the curtain and have a gander at the magic behind…

Well hello there! I take it you’ve been hearing about this MCP business online and have meandered over to my humble website looking for answers. This post shall shed some light on the entire affair. Today’s AI assistants like Claude, Grok, and ChatGPT, are a clever lot, brimming with facts and ready to toss out…

OpenAI finally released GPT4.5, hot on the heels of new SOTA models from Anthropic and xAI. As always, OpenAI hyped it up in the lead up to the launch. Sam Altman himself fueled the flames of expectation, describing it as “the first model that feels like talking to a thoughtful person to me” and hinting…

Oh wait you still use Google to search the internet? In this glorious age of reasoning AI. Come on now. Here’s the thing, if you’re building AI agents, Google won’t cut it. You don’t need 500,000 search results. You need just the right amount of information for your agent to do its job. Your agent…

This post was first published in 2020. While the core framework described here is still relevant, I’ve updated it for 2025 to talk about how AI can be used to build it out.

Some time during the summer of last year there were rumours that the current architectures for language models and AI were hitting a wall. When GPT-3 first came out, it amazed us with its ability to generate human-like text, enabling people to produce more work, faster. Soon we had Claude, Gemini, and other language models.…

I was speaking to a VC last month and they mentioned their marketing strategy is to publish their investment memos as blog posts. It’s really one of the best ways for a VC to grow their brand. Bessemer and other big funds do it often. The only problem is it takes time. Smaller VCs don’t…

Imagine having a personal AI assistant that works without internet, is private and local, and most importantly – is completely free. This isn’t science fiction anymore. Yesterday, AllenAI released OLMoE, a completely free and open-source AI model that you can download and run locally on your iPhone. As someone who’s been closely following the AI…
