What I learned at the frontier of tech in 2025 (Kelly, Cowen, Wang, Prince)

Azeem Azhar

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Pivot: The transition from weightless software to energy-heavy hardware.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Stop building "wrappers" for model weaknesses.
  3. The Bottom Line: AI value is moving from the model to the grid and the individual reputation.

How AI Will Reshape The Economy In 2026 (a16z Big Ideas)

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: The Great Re-architecting. As legacy software moats evaporate and industrial supply chains reshore, value is migrating from passive data storage to active execution layers.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Target Archaic Verticals. Identify high-friction industries like mortgage servicing or IT support where the distance between intent and execution is currently measured in days.
  3. The Bottom Line: The next two years will reward those who build systems of action that replace human labor with autonomous agents and software-defined hardware.

Why Scientists Can't Rebuild a Polaroid Camera [César Hidalgo]

Machine Learning Street Talk

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Trend: Economic complexity predicts growth better than current GDP. Capital will move toward "high-letter" economies like India and Indonesia.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Prioritize team retention over documentation. Since knowledge is embodied, losing a core team is equivalent to deleting the source code.
  3. The Bottom Line: Success in the next decade belongs to those who treat knowledge as a living network rather than a digital asset.

⚡️GPT5-Codex-Max: Training Agents with Personality, Tools & Trust — Brian Fioca + Bill Chen, OpenAI

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: Agentic Abstraction. We are moving from Model-as-a-Service to Agent-as-a-Service where the harness is as important as the weights.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Standardize your CLI. Use tools like ripgrep (RG) that models already have "habits" for to see immediate performance gains.
  3. The Bottom Line: The next 12 months will see the end of manual integration engineering as agents become capable of navigating UIs and legacy terminals autonomously.

Steve Yegge's Vibe Coding Manifesto: Why Claude Code Isn't It & What Comes After the IDE

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The commoditization of syntax means architectural judgment is the only remaining moat. As the cost of code hits zero the value of intent skyrockets.
  2. Replace your manual refactoring workflows with a burn and rebuild strategy. Use agents to generate entirely new modules instead of patching old ones.
  3. Seniority is no longer a shield against obsolescence. You must spend the next six months building your agentic intuition or risk being replaced by a PhD student with a prompt.

One Year of MCP — with David Soria Parria and AAIF leads from OpenAI, Goose, Linux Foundation

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Evolution: Standardized communication layers are replacing custom API integrations. This commoditizes the connector market and moves value to the models that best utilize these tools.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Standardize your internal data tools using MCP servers today. This ensures your company is ready for autonomous agents that can discover and use your resources without manual API integration.
  3. The Bottom Line: The agentic stack is consolidating around MCP. Interoperability is no longer a feature; it is the foundation for the next decade of AI utility.

How Claude Code Works - Jared Zoneraich, PromptLayer

AI Engineer

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The transition from Prompt Engineering to Context Engineering where the goal is keeping the model's workspace small and relevant.
  2. Replace your complex classification prompts with a single Bash tool. Let the agent write its own Python scripts to handle data transformations.
  3. The winners in the agent space will not be those with the most complex logic. They will be the ones who build the best tools for the model to use.

Shipping AI That Works: An Evaluation Framework for PMs – Aman Khan, Arize

AI Engineer

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: From Model-Centric to Eval-Centric. The value is moving from the LLM itself to the proprietary evaluation loops that keep the LLM on the rails.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Export production traces and build a "Golden Set" of 50 hard examples. Use these to run A/B tests on every prompt change before hitting production.
  3. The Bottom Line: Reliability is the product. If you cannot measure how your agent fails, you haven't built a product; you've built a demo.

How AI Will Reshape The Economy In 2026 (a16z Big Ideas)

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The transition from passive data storage to active agentic execution across both financial and industrial sectors.
  2. Target unsexy legacy industries like mortgage servicing or rare earth processing where the margin for improvement is highest.
  3. 2026 marks the year where software eating the world moves from the screen to the physical supply chain and the autonomous agent.
