All we really now have to build are the tools. Agents do, and will do more before it’s 2027, understand how to use them. Almost everyone will be building code by the end of this year. And if you’re not, chances are you are missing out. I had AI build this plugin, one weekend.

I studied to be a sociologist, became a restaurant owner, and then transitioned to AI research. I now lead GenAI R&D at AUAS Industrial Digital Twins Lab. What I have learned contradicts much of what people assume about AI and coding. Essay -> wonderwhy.ai/

Here's my talk with Jason Liu @jxnlco - creator of the open-source #Instructor library, a fantastic framework for structured prompting, data extraction and validation (and more). We spoke on the October AI Builders Meetup #Amsterdam. We are a community of AI Engineers that hosts monthly meetups in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Berlin. youtu.be/G2H9jNRO6Nc #LLM #Instructor #GenAI #OpenAI #Llama #Anthropic #prompting #aiengineer

We are poor indeed if all we can do is agree with the things we read. Kant passionately disagreed wit Hume so much that it inspired him to write his (arguably) best work, “The Critique of Pure Reason.” Which antagonist do you owe your best work to?

To extract data from unstructured sources with LLMs, I use #Instructor. I spend a lot of time building custom validators using domain knowledge/ logic to verify data class results. But what if another LLM could create my data classes and validators on the fly? @jxnlco thoughts?
