Diving into "Can LLMs Lie?" and "Poison Attacks on LLMs" - two really interesting papers that just came out, exploring vulnerabilities and risks in how models can be trained or corupted with malicious intent. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUlN...

Follow along to create a custom agent with Elastic Agent Builder. Next demo: How to create custom tools
After announcing the @elastic.co Agent Builder on our YouTube and dev (@elastic-dev.bsky.social) channels, I played around with it some more to build a #SpotifyWrapped generator based on a previous blog I wrote! I build my own ES|QL tool and musical agent 🎵
Just when I finally used up months worth of #audible credits to get all the #HarryPotterAudiobooks, they announce the new full-cast ones are coming out soon 😭 It was hard enough to pick between Stephen Fry and Jim Dale
Gone from filming in every random corner of my student apartments to finally having a fixed "studio" for my videos. Only took 6 years since the first #youtube video 😅
Introducing Elastic Agent Builder, designed to give your agents the best context and tools. Build precise agents fast, connect all your data where it already lives in Elasticsearch, and create custom tools for any use case. Learn more: www.elastic.co/search-labs/...
Is generating fake videos the best AI has to offer? Are we using too much inference power with little to show for it? Is the slop making too much noise to appreciate real AI value anymore? Some thoughts: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgPT...

A 300h Civ Six girly just bought Europa Universalis, Anno 1800 and Old World in the 90% off autumn steam sale. Wish me luck, won’t resurface for a few days.
If you're in Amsterdam next week - we're hosting another meetup at our @elastic.co office! I'll be giving a talk on "Embeddings - LLMs - vector / semantic search - GenAI - RAG - agents - MCP" (aka acronym and buzzword bingo). See you there! www.meetup.com/elastic-nl/e...
Building and deploying AI infused apps with Elasticsearch, Tue, Oct 7, 2025, 5:45 PM | Meetup
Join us for a meetup on **October 7th** in our Elastic office in Amsterdam! Doors open at 17.45 and the presentations begin at 18.00. Food, refreshments, and networking to

@pydata.bsky.social Amsterdam was really fun last week! (selfishly, I also love stocking up on all the @numfocus.bsky.social stickers whenever possible - always a highlight! )
We’re at @pydata.bsky.social #Amsterdam today with @elastic.co. Come by our booth if you wanna chat about AI in search or observability and otel 😉. Or just for some cool stickers and socks 🧦
I've been releasing loads of new content on our @elastic.co YouTube community channel. Covered #LLMs, #RAG, #agents, #MCP, and the latest on #contextengineering. Yes, I'm basically playing buzzwords bingo / catch 'em all. And yes, I've also mastered "YouTube thumbnail posing". #hatethegame
#CDN Romania thank you for an amazing conference experience! Great crowd and discussions, amazing speakers, lovely organisers, good location and food <3 I was so happy my talk about building @elastic.co analytics dashboards from your data (like an accurate DYI Spotify Wrapped!) was well received!
For this last episode of #DailyElasticByte about #OTel, @iuliaferoli.com will explain how to run anomaly detection after having collected all the signals we saw over the last 3 weeks. Join her in 2 minutes at
Anomaly Detection - Daily Elastic Byte S06E15
Daily Elastic Byte Season 06: OpenTelemetryFor three weeks we will dive into a different topic related to the otel space every day at 4PM CET/10AM ET! Questi...

The only way we can get great results out of LLMs is if you perfect prompt engineering / figure out how to be as explicit and precise as possible about your requirements and how the code should perform. Sooo is the AI revolution going to actually make people write good documentation and wikis?? 😅😅
Second day at #laracon EU and I have to say, the community here is so lovely and exciting that it made me want to attempt to learn PHP! And that's something since in all my years of programming so far I never once got tempted to touch #javascript. I'll call that a big #laravel win!
Quick dinner in the uni campus canteen: on one hand - awesome healthy cheap food. However - you have to listen to someone loudly ponder if nietzsche’s philosophy is compatible with the values of Christianity; and mansplain the moral of the great Gatsby all within 30 seconds. Gen Z be wildin
Talk about dramatic rockstar entrances 🤩🤩☄️☄️🎇🎇🎇 Laracon knows how to make an impression 🙌🏼🙌🏼
At #laracon EU today in Amsterdam with our elastic booth. Come say hi if you’re around! Seeing a lot of great use cases especially with our open telemetry integrations for monitoring and observably w/ the laravel ecosystem
Had to turn this into a blog write-up - using Elasticsearch to dive into my Oura sleep data and generate my sleep score in just a few lines!
Analyzing my Oura sleep score - is it AI or just math?
Today I dove into my activity tracker data; specifically, the sleep score that Oura calculates daily....
dev.to
Today I dove into my activity tracker data; specifically, the sleep score that Oura calculates daily. The intuition/assumption about it is pretty simple - more deep sleep and lower heart rate correlate with better scores. Is it that simple? Let's take a look in a quick data science experiment
Building my own Wrapped from my Spotify data with elasticsearch and kibana! I am told my top artists list is quite a weird mix 😅 I just call it beautiful, diverse data 😜
How to create your own Spotify Wrapped in Kibana - Elasticsearch Labs
Based on the downloadable Spotify personal history, we'll generate a custom version of "Wrapped" with the top artists, songs, and trends over the year
elastic.co
New year new project. I've been seeing lots of comments about the ~accuracy~ of spotify wrapped at the end of 2024 - so I've decided to build my own with #elasticsearch It's actually super easy to put together and you can do way more drilling into your trends/taste over time <3 Blog coming soon!
