Dorota Parad shares the BLISS framework (Bulkheads, Levels, Impact, Simplicity, Pit of Success), explaining how we can eliminate productivity sacrifices made in the name of security. She discusses optimizing security practices to reduce friction, improve developer experience, and build more resilient systems that meet compliance without hindering innovation.
By Dorota ParadPhil Calçado, CEO of Outropy, shared key insights at the InfoQ Dev Summit on scaling generative AI products. He highlighted the need for effective workflows and agents in AI development, advocating for iterative approaches that leverage proven software engineering principles. His insights promise to guide teams in building resilient AI systems without reinventing the wheel.
By Andrew HoblitzellRecently open-sourced by Google, the Agent2Agent protocol is now part of the Linux Foundation, along with its accompanying SDKs and developer tools.
By Sergio De SimoneApple Machine Learning Research published a paper titled "The Illusion of Thinking," which investigates the abilities of Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) on a set of puzzles. As the complexity of the puzzles increases, the researchers found that LRMs encounter a "collapse" threshold where the models reduce their reasoning effort, indicating a limit to the models' scalability.
By Anthony AlfordDenys Linkov shares lessons on preventing LLM production issues. He explains the flaws of single metrics, the importance of treating models as observable systems, building user-issue-alerting metrics, and focusing on business value. He emphasizes a "crawl, walk, run" approach to LLM metric maturity for successful, trust-building deployments.
