Turn Simon Willison’s ‘llm’ CLI into a repeatable AI workflow. Setup, logging, testing, and safeguards so teams ship reliable, auditable LLM features fast.

Actionable takeaways from Simon Willison’s June AI newsletter: treat structured outputs like API contracts, favor lean RAG, and run realistic, continuous evals.

Vercel Agents makes AI agents deployable software. See the stack, patterns, and pitfalls to ship production agents on Next.js with control and observability.

Stop sitting out AI decisions. Use this 7-day, one-hour-a-day plan to get conversant in LLMs, risk, and evals—so you can influence product and spend.

Use this 5-minute checklist to validate claims around new open-source LLMs (like the latest GLM drop). Check benchmarks, licenses, context, and real tasks.

AI can draft code but can’t own outcomes. Five reasons engineers remain essential—and practical workflows to use LLMs to ship faster without breaking prod.

OpenAI outlines foundations for trustworthy third-party AI evaluations. Use buyer’s checklist to demand credible, reproducible tests before adopting model.

SQLite gives LLM agents durable memory, tool logs, FTS and vector search with zero ops—fast, debuggable, and production-ready. Stop overbuilding your stack.

OpenAI’s Codex tax agents used a generate-execute-evaluate loop. Rebuild it with GPT-4o using function calling, sandboxes, retrieval, tests, and guardrails.

GOAT (which stands for Generative Optimization And Transformer) is a new AI model built to do one thing exceptionally well: solve complex, multi-step problems. Unlike general-purpose models like ChatGPT, GOAT is a specialist. It was trained on a massive dataset of math proofs, competitive programming puzzles, and real-world engineering challenges. Think of it as a grandmaster-level strategist for logic and optimization. The Immediate Impact: Who Wins First? This isn’t just an academic trophy. Specific industries are poised to benefit almost immediately. The “Should I Worry?” Factor: Jobs and Capabilities Let’s be direct. Does this automate away jobs? Not immediately, but…
