Welcome to AIE CODE - Jed Borovik, Google DeepMind

AI Engineer

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The transition from general-purpose LLMs to specialized coding agents that operate on the entire codebase rather than isolated snippets.
  2. Audit your current stack for agentic readiness. Prioritize tools that integrate with Gemini 3 or similar high-reasoning models to automate repetitive pull requests.
  3. Code is the substrate of the digital world. If you control the means of AI code generation, you control the speed of innovation for every other industry.

Claude Agent SDK [Full Workshop] — Thariq Shihipar, Anthropic

AI Engineer

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The industry is moving from "Chat-as-Interface" to "Computer-as-Interface" where models operate directly on file systems.
  2. Replace your complex list of fifty tools with a single Bash tool and a secure sandbox.
  3. The winners in the agent race will not build the best prompts. They will build the best infrastructure for models to execute code.

Infinity, Paradoxes, Gödel Incompleteness & the Mathematical Multiverse | Lex Fridman Podcast #488

Lex Fridman

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The move from a singular "Universe" view to a "Multiverse" perspective mirrors the transition from centralized monoliths to fragmented, interoperable ecosystems.
  2. Build systems that fail gracefully when hitting Gödelian limits.
  3. Truth is a vast ocean while proof is a small boat. Your roadmap must account for the reality that your system will eventually encounter truths it cannot verify.

AI in 2026: 3 Predictions For What’s To Come (a16z Big Ideas)

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Pivot: Outcome-Based Intelligence. We are moving from AI as a Service to Results as a Service where software value is tied to revenue generation rather than seat licenses.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Verticalize the Data. Build in sectors with non-public outcome data to create a compounding moat that resists commoditization by foundation models.
  3. The winners of 2026 will be those who use AI to solve core human needs for connection and discovery while building defensible, data-rich business models.

AutoGrad Changed Everything (Not Transformers) [Dr. Jeff Beck]

Machine Learning Street Talk

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Transition: Moving from "Big Model" monoliths to "Lots of Little Models" where distributed Bayesian assets represent specific physical objects.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Prioritize "Object-Centered" architectures that track uncertainty. This allows robots to "phone a friend" when encountering novel data.
  3. The LLM era is hitting a wall of implicit representation. The next 12 months belong to those building explicit, causal world models grounded in physics rather than language.

[State of Post-Training] From GPT-4.1 to 5.1: RLVR, Agent & Token Efficiency — Josh McGrath, OpenAI

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The move from "bigger is better" to "smarter is cheaper" as token efficiency becomes the primary metric for agentic success.
  2. Prioritize building on models that demonstrate high performance on "graph walk" evals to ensure your long-context applications actually work.
  3. Utilitarian and efficient models that prioritize task completion over cheery personality will dominate the developer market.

[State of Evals] LMArena's $100M Vision — Anastasios Angelopoulos, LMArena

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Trend: The transition from static benchmarks to live human-in-the-loop evaluation. As models saturate fixed tests, the only remaining signal is subjective human preference at scale.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Monitor secret model drops on Arena to spot frontier capabilities before official releases. This provides a lead time advantage for builders choosing their tech stack.
  3. The Bottom Line: Arena is the new kingmaker. If you are building AI products, their expert-tier data is the most reliable map for navigating the frontier.

[State of Context Engineering] Agentic RAG, Context Rot, MCP, Subagents — Nina Lopatina, Contextual

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The move from small models to medium models (15B to 70B) suggests that reasoning capability is outstripping the desire for low-latency edge deployment.
  2. Implement instruction-following re-rankers to prune your context window. This prevents the model from getting confused by irrelevant data.
  3. Stop building toys. The next year belongs to those who can build full agentic systems that handle billions of tokens without losing the plot.

[NeurIPS Best Paper] 1000 Layer Networks for Self-Supervised RL — Kevin Wang et al, Princeton

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The wall between RL and self-supervised learning is crumbling, leading to a unified "representation-first" approach to AI.
  2. Swap your reward-heavy objectives for contrastive representation learning to access deeper, more stable architectures.
  3. If you aren't planning for RL models with 100x the current depth, you're building for the past.
