The Job Is Not the Checklist Jensen Huang said something recently that I keep coming back to. Not because it was surprising, but because of how little softening was in it. “If your job is the task, then you’re very highly going to be disrupted.” Not might be. Very highly going to be. That phrasing…
Physical AI Is About to Eat the Conversation We’ve Been Having About Software Everyone in my world is obsessed with reasoning models, agents, and context windows. Fair enough. The software AI story has been genuinely wild. But I think we’re about to watch the center of gravity shift, and the new video Elon posted this…
Your Dev Environment Is Not a Vault I have watched AI engineers obsess over model security, prompt injection defenses, and output filtering while their local machines sit wide open. The LiteLLM supply chain attack from March 2026 is the clearest possible illustration of where the real risk actually lives, and most of the people I…
The Supply Chain Attack Nobody Is Talking About Enough Everyone is watching Optimus videos this week. I get it. The robot stuff is genuinely impressive. But I keep coming back to something far more unsettling, something that directly affects every team shipping AI products right now. TeamPCP just ran a multi-stage supply chain attack across…
Speed Is Not a Strategy: Why Fast AI Development Is a Liability Dressed Up as a Virtue There is a pattern I keep watching repeat itself in AI engineering, and I am tired of pretending it is not a problem. The teams shipping fastest are often the teams with the least understanding of what they…
The Thread We Were Hanging By Every AI engineer reading this should stop what they are doing and pay attention. This week, Andrej Karpathy flagged one of the most alarming supply chain attacks I have seen target our specific corner of the software world. The litellm package on PyPI was poisoned. A single pip install…
The PyPI Dependency Trap Nobody Wants to Talk About Last week, ML engineers got a very clear look at how fragile the tooling ecosystem really is. A poisoned PyPI release of litellm, version 1.82.8, sat live on the registry for less than an hour. In that window, it was fully capable of exfiltrating SSH keys,…
Claude Just Sat Down at Your Desk Monday, Anthropic shipped something that I think most people are processing too slowly. Claude can now control your computer. Mouse. Keyboard. Screen. Any app. Not through an API connector, not through a plugin, not through some fragile browser extension that breaks when a website updates its CSS. Claude…
10x Faster Agent Containers: What OpenAI’s Container Pooling Really Signals If you’ve spent any real time building agentic workflows, you already know that the bottleneck usually isn’t the model. It’s the plumbing. Cold starts, spinning infrastructure, waiting for a container to come up before your agent can even begin executing a tool call. OpenAI just…
Container Pooling in the Responses API Is Not a Plumbing Detail Most engineers I talk to treat cold-start latency as a footnote. Something to optimize later. A known cost of doing business with containerized infrastructure. I’ve been guilty of this too. OpenAI just made that attitude a lot harder to defend. They shipped container pooling…
