“ An ‘agentic’ process is one whereby someone else goes and does something with your approval and authority. In the world of AI, it means empowering an AI engine to do something for you. These agents are goal-seeking, adaptible, asynchronous, and have decision making powers. ”
“ More of an anthology, perhaps? This book fulfills it’s title, but it careens around weirdly in scope. It goes from very high-level to very low-level. I’m torn on it. It was helpful to prove the point that AI is really category, not a single technology. I’d give it a 3.5 if I could. ”
“A good primer to the field. Hits the right depth between technical and theoretical layers, including quite a bit on ethics. My takeaway is that we’re really, really far away from anything approaching what we think artificial intelligence was going to be. The key is that there’s a difference between…”
“I did not love this book. There’s a potential for a good book there, but it’s wrapped up in a very annoying writing style. The book is a look at the history of how we have automated text generation. The author goes back into ancient times, and moves forward to Eliza and Claude Shannon, then…”
“Look at this picture. It’s funny – I get it, and so do you. Now, mentally catalog all the different things a computer/AI would have to understand to ‘get’ this picture – to understand this picture the same way your mind does. It’s …sobering. Humans have a background and context of knowledge that’s…”
“I’ve found one very practical use for AI on my personal website. I have a LOT of content out there, and I haven’t written summaries for it all. When showing this content in lists, I usually just extract about 300 characters to use as a summary, but that’s not perfect. So I bounced a bunch of…”
“Back in the mid-80s, ‘Star Trek IV’ was in theaters. It was a great movie about how the Enterprise had to go back in time to the mid-80s (the present-day for movie goers). The humor of the movie was mostly because the crew of the Enterprise had to survive in the 80s. It was a classic fish out of…”
Successfully incorporating AI into our editorial process requires us to identify and consider all the risks. Here are six of them.
We’re gonna need to get back to the boring basics if we’re going to survive the next decade.
“Bill Gates recommended this book. It’s not terrible, but not at all actionable, either. It’s a breathless prediction of what the future of AI, computing power, and gene editing will enable. The author paints a picture of amazing breakthoughs and things-we-cannot-image, etc. I don’t know what to do…”
“This book tries to answer the question: will AI ever be able to emulate human creativity? It never really answers the question, but it’s still very, very interesting. Each chapter covers a different type of creativity: writing, music, art, etc. It’s full of examples and anecdotes about the advances…”
