Andrej Karpathy spent 2h showing how he actually uses AI day to day he's a co-founder of OpenAI and led AI at Tesla, so when he shows how he works, it’s worth watching and the whole session is just him telling the machine what he wants in simple terms, like he's briefing a coworker watch what's actually happening the entire time: > he describes the task in normal words > it goes off and does the work > he glances at the result and nudges it with one more sentence that's the whole skill, and you've had it since you learned to talk the only gap between that and a worker that runs on its own is handing that sentence a schedule and the tools to act check his work, then build the version that keeps working when you stop
LLM Knowledge Bases Something I'm finding very useful recently: using LLMs to build personal knowledge bases for various topics of research interest. In this way, a large fraction of my recent token throughput is going less into manipulating code, and more into manipulating knowledge (stored as markdown and images). The latest LLMs are quite good at it. So: Data ingest: I index source documents (articles, papers, repos, datasets, images, etc.) into a raw/ directory, then I use an LLM to incrementally "compile" a wiki, which is just a collection of .md files in a directory structure. The wiki includes summaries of all the data in raw/, backlinks, and then it categorizes data into concepts, writes articles for them, and links them all. To convert web articles into .md files I like to use the Obsidian Web Clipper extension, and then I also use a hotkey to download all the related images to local so that my LLM can easily reference them. IDE: I use Obsidian as the IDE "frontend" where I can view the raw data, the the compiled wiki, and the derived visualizations. Important to note that the LLM writes and maintains all of the data of the wiki, I rarely touch it directly. I've played with a few Obsidian plugins to render and view data in other ways (e.g. Marp for slides). Q&A: Where things get interesting is that once your wiki is big enough (e.g. mine on some recent research is ~100 articles and ~400K words), you can ask your LLM agent all kinds of complex questions against the wiki, and it will go off, research the answers, etc. I thought I had to reach for fancy RAG, but the LLM has been pretty good about auto-maintaining index files and brief summaries of all the documents and it reads all the important related data fairly easily at this ~small scale. Output: Instead of getting answers in text/terminal, I like to have it render markdown files for me, or slide shows (Marp format), or matplotlib images, all of which I then view again in Obsidian. You can imagine many other visual output formats depending on the query. Often, I end up "filing" the outputs back into the wiki to enhance it for further queries. So my own explorations and queries always "add up" in the knowledge base. Linting: I've run some LLM "health checks" over the wiki to e.g. find inconsistent data, impute missing data (with web searchers), find interesting connections for new article candidates, etc., to incrementally clean up the wiki and enhance its overall data integrity. The LLMs are quite good at suggesting further questions to ask and look into. Extra tools: I find myself developing additional tools to process the data, e.g. I vibe coded a small and naive search engine over the wiki, which I both use directly (in a web ui), but more often I want to hand it off to an LLM via CLI as a tool for larger queries. Further explorations: As the repo grows, the natural desire is to also think about synthetic data generation + finetuning to have your LLM "know" the data in its weights instead of just context windows. TLDR: raw data from a given number of sources is collected, then compiled by an LLM into a .md wiki, then operated on by various CLIs by the LLM to do Q&A and to incrementally enhance the wiki, and all of it viewable in Obsidian. You rarely ever write or edit the wiki manually, it's the domain of the LLM. I think there is room here for an incredible new product instead of a hacky collection of scripts.
How did we go from vanilla RAG to agentic RAG SO fast? Just some years ago, we were excited about basic retrieval-augmented generation. Now we're building full AI agents that can reason, plan, and use multiple tools autonomously. Here's what changed everything: 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮 𝗥𝗔𝗚 had some serious limitations: • Only one external knowledge source • One-shot retrieval with no validation • No reasoning about retrieval quality 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗥𝗔𝗚 changes the game completely. Instead of a simple retrieve-and-generate pipeline, we now have AI agents that can: • Route queries to specialized knowledge sources • Validate retrieved context before using it • Access multiple tools (web search, calculators, APIs) • Perform multi-step retrieval and reasoning The technical shift happened through two main approaches: 1️⃣ 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 - LLMs can now reliably connect to external tools and APIs 2️⃣ 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 - DSPy, LangChain, CrewAI making it easier to build complex multi-agent systems 3️⃣ E𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 - companies like Replit and Microsoft started shipping agents in production But here's the thing - this rapid evolution brings both exciting possibilities and new challenges. While agentic RAG produces more accurate responses, it also introduces added latency and potential failure modes. The speed of this transformation is honestly crazy. We went from basic retrieval to full reasoning agents in what feels like months, not years. Read more in this blog post: weaviate.io/blog/what-is-a…
🚨 Anthropic just solved the problem every AI agent engineer’s been screaming about for a year. Every agent today burns tokens like fuel every tool call, every definition, every intermediate result jammed into context. Now Anthropic’s introducing the fix: code execution with MCP. Instead of calling tools directly, agents now write code to call them and it changes everything. → 98.7% fewer tokens → 10x faster task completion → No context overload → No data leakage Think of it like this: Old agents talk about what to do. New agents just code and do it. Cloudflare calls it “Code Mode.” Anthropic just made it real. This is the turning point. The next generation of AI agents won’t prompt tools they’ll build with them.
Harvard just dropped a book on ~ML systems engineering~ and it's 100% free in PDF (it will be published in print by MIT Press). systems engineering is the hot skill companies die to see in candidates, but few books explain it in the context of ML. What it covers: → ML system foundations → a primer on DL → DNN architectures ⃗→ design principles and AI workflows ⃗→ data engineering → AI training (distributed, mathematics, etc.) ⃗→ performance engineering and model optimization ⃗→ AGI systems and what to expect!!! ⃗→ how to work with SLMs and VLMs the subjects cover 100% of what you need to know as a mid-level ML engineer, and the best part is that it is updated to cover what matters in 2025. get the book here: mlsysbook.ai
