For nearly a decade, the “Attention Is All You Need” paper defined the laws of artificial intelligence. The Transformer architecture was the hammer, and every problem was a nail. But as we close out 2025, the era of “peak Transformer” is behind...

A couple quotes that caught my eye today: “We are dangerously confusing computational speed with legal reasoning. While AI can be extraordinarily useful, it cannot replace the reasoning of educated, experienced lawyers. The fact is that AI only simulates...

“An interesting trend I’m seeing is that some of the most elite teams are abandoning AI coding altogether.” I hear this is happening in some companies and figure it is because:(a) They either started too soon (before LLMs were smart enough;(b) They...

Yay there are many to choose from! If you work in VS Code, the one that stands out for me is Roo Code. Some things I love about it: (1) Free – you just plug the API keys in for whatever models you wan to use. The only limits come from the models through API. (2)...

What are some other AI models (post LLM, not using LLM methods) that go beyond the current high-end LLMs and LLMs on the near horizon but are not proven to work yet? Several experimental AI architectures and paradigms push beyond current post-LLM models but remain...

Why is OpenAI a potential problem and what can us puny mortals do to contribute to a solution? OpenAI’s “Chat GPT” has become the most well known of Large Language Models (LLMs). By the way, it isn’t the best. I have a beef or two with OpenAI....

Some of my favorite childhood memories are of sitting in front of a tiny TV hooked up to my Commodore Vic-20 (with tape drive and 300 baud modem) making games and other apps in 1982. Thirty years of freelance coding later, I still love doing it! In early 2022, I...

Often lately, I hear people expressing a range of opinions about AI. One pattern I’m noticing is instead of referring to AI as “they,” they’re referring to AI as “it” and most often “Chat GPT.” I get it. OpenAI’s...
