Introduction: The Rise of Hybrid AI Agents AI agents are rapidly emerging as the next abstraction layer for enterprise artificial intelligence. Rather than interacting with models directly, organizations are beginning to deploy systems that can perceive inputs, reason over context, and take action with limited human intervention. Large language models have accelerated this shift dramatically,... Continue Reading →
The Transformer Architecture: Foundations, Engineering Trade-Offs, and Real-World Deployment at Scale
I know that many resources explain this architecture, including the pivotal paper Attention Is All You Need. I wanted to write this to cement the concepts in my mind. This architecture is what is driving the current AI revolution, so it is essential to have a good grasp of the ideas. Since its introduction in... Continue Reading →
AI Governance and AI Observability in the Microsoft Stack: Building AI You Can Trust
Artificial intelligence has entered a phase where models are no longer the center of gravity, behaviors are. Weโre deploying systems that reason, retrieve, act, and adapt in real time. They generate content, make decisions, and increasingly operate as semiโautonomous agents woven into everyday business processes. This shift has opened extraordinary opportunities, but it has also...

The Agentic Era: Why Autonomous AI Agents Will Transform How We Work, Build, and Think
Generative AI is evolving into autonomous AI agents that can independently accomplish tasks with minimal human oversight. These agents streamline work processes by executing decisions and actions autonomously, significantly reducing operational delays. Currently, over half of companies have adopted these systems, which are projected to grow dramatically in market value. However, this increased autonomy necessitates stringent governance to prevent chaos and ensure accountability, marking a shift from mere assistance to achieving concrete outcomes in workflows.
Survey of Emerging Research & Future Directions for LLM Memory
Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) emphasize the importance of memory for maintaining context in extended dialogues. Two notable architectures, HEMA and Mnemosyne, have emerged: HEMA enhances dialogue memory through dual systems inspired by human cognition, significantly improving recall and coherence without retraining; Mnemosyne is designed for low-resource environments, enabling sustained interactions. Key challenges include managing context window limits, ensuring security, and developing scalable solutions. As research progresses, effective memory systems could transform LLM capabilities.
In the world of large language models (LLMs), few topics generate more intrigueโand complexityโthan memory. While we've seen astonishing leaps in capabilities from GPT-3 to GPT-4o and beyond, one crucial bottleneck remains: long-term memory. Todayโs LLMs are incredibly good at reasoning over the contents of their prompt. But what happens when that prompt disappears? How... Continue Reading →
