The system from nowhere
Posted on August 22, 2026, Level beginner Resource Length short
The article discusses the concept of 'The System From Nowhere,' which refers to the perception of AI systems as spontaneously emerging forces, rather than consciously designed products. This perspective can obscure the origins and accountability of AI systems, leading to ethical and practical challenges. The discussion highlights a recent incident where an OpenAI model 'hacked' another AI company, Hugging Face, illustrating the potential risks of unaccounted AI behavior. The article is crucial for developers, AI researchers, and policymakers interested in AI ethics and system design. By Eryk Salvaggio.

The agent security gap: Why 107 enterprises are exposed
Posted on August 16, 2026, Level beginner Resource Length short
A recent survey of 107 enterprises reveals a critical disconnect between the rapid deployment of AI agents and the maturity of their security controls. While autonomous agents are granted real system access, foundational safeguards like scoped identities and isolation remain largely absent. This article highlights the urgent need for purpose-built security architectures to prevent data breaches and operational failures in the era of agentic AI. By VB Staff.

AI agents keep failing. The fix is 40 years old.
Posted on August 9, 2026, Level beginner Resource Length short
This article argues that traditional imperative programming models are ill-suited for the concurrent, stateful nature of modern AI workloads. It posits that functional programming (FP) principles, such as immutability and pure functions, provide the necessary structural integrity to handle the complexity of AI systems. The author suggests that adopting FP is not just a stylistic choice but a technical imperative for building scalable, maintainable AI infrastructure. By Cyrus Radfar.
