I had some fun building an AI agent from scratch. Here's an overview… How AI Agents Really Work: Build One in Plain Python youtu.be/oBbwZjcunDE?...

In Chapter 1, Monty and I discussed the difference between a chatbot and an agent. In this chapter, we start to drill further on the parts that make the whole when we say "agent" www.thepythoncodingstack.com/p/2-who-actu...

Something interesting is brewing at The Python Coding Stack Some things (pl.), really I may drop some teasers over the coming days. Stay tuned thepythoncodingstack.com

Chapter 2 in the Agents Unpacked series is out. Who actually does the work when you ask an agent to do stuff? www.thepythoncodingstack.com/p/2-who-actu...

Chapter 2 in the Agents Unpacked series is coming out today. Catch up with Chapter 1 here This series is a conversation between me and my agent, who’s been trained in my didactic techniques and communication style and did plenty of research on the topic www.thepythoncodingstack.com/p/1-what-mak...

Phase 1 of using AI: Do stuff you did yesterday, but more of it, and faster Phase 2 of using AI: Do stuff that _you_ couldn’t do yesterday Phase 3 of using AI: Do stuff that was impossible yesterday Phase 4 of using AI: Do stuff that you couldn’t have imagined yesterday

SOLID principles are needed in the age of AI-assisted programming. Here’s the S in SOLID www.thepythoncodingstack.com/p/solid-sing...

There are 113 posters or notices stuck to the wall or notice boards in the doctor’s surgery waiting room. I’m sure someone must have carried out a research project somewhere, some time to show the optimum number is…much, much less than this!

I had missed the Agentic AI boat last year, even though I was using LLMs daily… …this is how I caught up/am catching up Second post in this series coming soon (make sure you're subscribed…)

What works for me is not necessarily what works for others, but I was curious about what the current research says… backonthetrack.substack.com/p/the-shoe-d...
