will share how to build an AI journal with the LlamaIndex. We will cover one essential function of this AI journal: asking for advice. We will start with the most basic implementation and iterate from there. We can see significant improvements for this function when we apply design patterns like Agentic Rag and multi-agent workflow. …

AlphaEvolve imagined as a genetic algorithm coupled to a large language model. Picture created by the author using various tools including Dall-E3 via ChatGPT. Models have undeniably revolutionized how many of us approach coding, but they’re often more like a super-powered intern than a seasoned architect. Errors, bugs and hallucinations happen all the time, and …

is one of the key techniques for reducing the memory footprint of large language models (LLMs). It works by converting the data type of model parameters from higher-precision formats such as 32-bit floating point (FP32) or 16-bit floating point (FP16/BF16) to lower-precision integer formats, typically INT8 or INT4. For example, quantizing a model to 4-bit …
New AI agent evolves algorithms for math and practical applications in computing by combining the creativity of large language models with automated evaluators
ContentsRecent large language models (LLMs) — such as OpenAI’s o1/o3, DeepSeek’s R1 and Anthropic’s Claude 3.7 — demonstrate that allowing the model to think deeper and longer at test time can significantly enhance model’s reasoning capability. The core approach underlying their deep thinking capability is called chain-of-thought (CoT), where the model iteratively generates intermediate reasoning …

I enjoyed reading this paper, not because I’ve met some of the authors before🫣, but because it felt necessary. Most of the papers I’ve written about so far have made waves in the broader ML community, which is great. This one, though, is unapologetically African (i.e. it solves a very African problem), and I think …

distributions are the most commonly used, a lot of real-world data unfortunately is not normal. When faced with extremely skewed data, it’s tempting for us to utilize log transformations to normalize the distribution and stabilize the variance. I recently worked on a project analyzing the energy consumption of training AI models, using data from Epoch …
GPT-powered fashion assistant, I expected runway looks—not memory loss, hallucinations, or semantic déjà vu. But what unfolded became a lesson in how prompting really works—and why LLMs are more like wild animals than tools. This article builds on my previous article on TDS, where I introduced Glitter as a proof-of-concept GPT stylist. Here, I explore …

Today we’re releasing early access to Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (I/O edition), an updated version of 2.5 Pro that has significantly improved capabilities for coding, especially building compelling interactive web apps. We were going to release this update at Google I/O in a couple weeks, but based on the overwhelming enthusiasm for this model, we …
