    Harnessing AI (and Humans) (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to feel like I need to run twice as fast just to keep up with everything that’s happening in AI space (where no one can hear you scream). No sooner do I wrap my brain around one concept than someone ambles into my life and introduces me to something else I didn’t even know I didn’t know. A case in point is something called an AI agent harness (aka AI harness, agent harness, agentic harness…). Do you know what this is? I didn’t use to. Now I know more than

    Arduino VENTUNO Q: Physical AI for All, Including You! (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Things were different back in the early part of the 20th century. There was a much stronger do-it-yourself culture, with people routinely building and repairing things themselves. It was an age of makers before the term “makers” was even a thing. For example, my friend Rick Curl once showed me one of his grandfather’s scrapbooks, filled with DIY audio, radio, electrical, and mechanical projects cut from the local newspaper. This was in Birmingham, Alabama, circa the 1920s and 1930s. Some of thes

    Move Over, HAL. New AI Thinks Like a Chip Designer (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    It just struck me that—although we don’t yet have things like Jetson-style flying cars—some of the technologies we do have go way beyond what was considered to be in the realm of science fiction when I was a young sprout. Actually, as an aside, just thinking about The Jetsons made me glance up at the futuristic-looking TV sitting on top of one of the bookshelves in my office. (I know, my asides are appearing closer and closer to the start of my columns—the way we’re going, it wouldn’t surprise m

    New Agentic AI Engine Takes the Reins on Marketing Campaigns (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    As I’ve mentioned in previous pieces, I’m constantly amazed by my ongoing discoveries of all the things I don’t know, and that’s just in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) domains. Things become even more dire when we consider other realms, such as marketing, public relations (PR), and sales. In a recent column—We’re All Metaphorically Perched on a Four-Legged Stool—I noted that, when I was a young engineer, I thought engineers were the most important people in the univ

    AI’s Missing Link (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I love all that modern technology has to offer, and I’m blown away by how far we’ve come so fast. For example, I commenced my career in 1980 as a member of a team designing central processing units (CPUs) for mainframe computers. At that time, most computers sat in splendid isolation. Personal computers like the Apple II were starting to appear in people’s homes, but few of us had any idea where things were heading. I remember when the unwashed masses (of which I’m a proud card-carrying member)
