Three Ways To Put An AI Agent Into Your IoT System
Scott Gerard
This conversation lays out a practical architecture decision tree for AIoT: start with one agent paired to one device for simple use cases, move to one agent orchestrating many devices once you have more than a handful of sensors or actuators, and graduate to a …

The Physics of Sentience
@Susan Hasty shared this AMAZING video with me. It’s breadth made my head explode. (And @Phil Tetlow, your head will be toast too). It bridges from the completely computer science topic of (Bayesian) Probabilistic Graphical Models and Markov Blankets, through entropy from physics, through a …
Over-hyped AI and Under-hyped AI
