It looks like we're going to have another social meeting at First Magnitude. I just got back from www.solidcon.com, so I'll have a lot to report. I know several of you are working on new projects. It will be good to hear about them. Also, there's a lot of buzz about Java 9, so I'll bring some info to share.
Please post your Java questions here on Codetown. And, don't hesitate to discuss other software topics in the forum or the other interest groups.
As always, I hope to see you at the July GatorJUG!

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

In this series, we examine what happens after the proof of concept and how AI becomes part of the software delivery pipeline. As AI transitions from proof of concept to production, teams are discovering that the challenge extends beyond model performance to include architecture, process, and accountability. This transition is redefining what constitutes good software engineering.

To prevent agents from obeying malicious instructions hidden in external data, all text entering an agent's context must be treated as untrusted, says Niv Rabin, principal software architect at AI-security firm CyberArk. His team developed an approach based on instruction detection and history-aware validation to protect against both malicious input data and context-history poisoning.

Meta has revealed how it scales its Privacy-Aware Infrastructure (PAI) to support generative AI development while enforcing privacy across complex data flows. Using large-scale lineage tracking, PrivacyLib instrumentation, and runtime policy controls, the system enables consistent privacy enforcement for AI workloads like Meta AI glasses without introducing manual bottlenecks.

Researchers at MIT's CSAIL published a design for Recursive Language Models (RLM), a technique for improving LLM performance on long-context tasks. RLMs use a programming environment to recursively decompose and process inputs, and can handle prompts up to 100x longer than base LLMs.
