The most important forces shaping markets today are not hidden. They are simply understated.

A few years ago, a budgeting app that tagged every purchase was smart, almost too smart. But after a few months, something strange happened. The act of writing it down made me more thoughtful.

The "Cleanup Cost," a multi-layered tax paid in stress, burnout, and moral injury, is rarely accounted for in corporate budgets or security strategies. Research indicates that a staggering 68% of breaches in 2024 involved human error. Nearly half of UK cybersecurity professionals report experiencing...

Natural language(NL) enables a lay person to communicate in writing with a machine. Allowances are made for creole language(if that is widely used), multiple languages can be leveraged, spelling and grammatical mistakes are not hurdles and slangs are ok. This allows a potential borrower to have a co...

Transforming AI agents into reliable sources of ROI isn't primarily a technical hurdle it's a matter of strategic governance and management.

Most “bad” LLM outputs are diagnostics. Treat them like stack traces: classify the failure, infer what your prompt failed to specify, patch the prompt, and re-test with a minimal change. Build a prompt changelog so you stop re-learning the same lesson.

The IA2 preprocessing phase uses a workload model and index candidates enumerator to create accurate state representations and action spaces.

IA2 uses a two-phase framework to generate states and action pools from workloads, enabling RL agents to make sequential index selection decisions.

Most AI retrieval systems try to infer which documents matter through better algorithms. But users often already know, they just can't tell the system. There are two kinds of knowledge: what's in documents, and which documents matter. The second kind can't always be inferred, it has to be provided....

Digital gold promises instant transfers, global accessibility, and security. But between that promise and reality sits a maze of infrastructure problems, verification nightmares, and integration challenges that would make any software architect wince.
