Autonomous AI in action. 🤖 Check out how the new Gemma 4 31B model operates as an ADK Agent, exploring, planning, and running experiments on an unfamiliar database to optimize services and maximize revenue. 📈 ✨ Dive into the full session here to explore the complete workflow: goo.gle/4ozP8sK

When people say 'AI isn't a bubble because the technology isn't going away', it just shows they don't know what a bubble is. The internet didn't go away. Railways didn't go away. Tulips didn't go away. An asset can be overvalued, even if its useful.

I have been working on Obsidian Reader for over a year. I didn't want to share it until I felt it was good enough. It's finally there. Consistent formatting for any article. Outline, syntax highlighting, nice footnotes, adjustable typography. Runs locally. Just rules, no AI.

#StarterPack #Saturday @pelayoarbues.com put it all the way together right here! If you are like #MissKitty pulling levers with #AI #Research, then you want this. If you want to get your two cents in. That is there. Come on and get a #FollowAll and #Repost and listen in or tell it all!

When you search for a home, it’s rarely “the whole city.” It’s more like: this neighborhood yes, this one no, that other one too, even if it’s far away. With @idealista.bsky.social new multi-area search, you can mix, exclude and add zones in one map search.

I am calling for a complete and total boycott of the Mercator projection in all news stories about Greenland until every member of the American public has seen this

The books I read in 2025. I followed the same habit that worked so well in 2024: reading non-fiction first to satisfy my curiosity and then switching to fiction to wind down. This routine is still the best compromise I’ve found between learning and resting. www.pelayoarbues.com/notes/Wrappe...

Just finished reading 3 Millones de Viviendas by @jorgegalindo.bsky.social. One of the sharpest takes on Spain’s housing crisis I’ve seen. Data, history, and a tough question: what kind of country do we want to build? www.pelayoarbues.com/notes/Tres-M... #realestate

I'm ready to accept a definition of "agent" that I think is widely-enough agreed upon to be useful, at least in the AI engineering space: An LLM agent runs tools in a loop to achieve a goal (I've been dismissing the term as hopelessly ambiguous for years) simonwillison.net/2025/Sep/18/...

Context engineering is the new AI buzzword. And here we go again: www.pelayoarbues.com/notes/Contex...

The data industry promotes builders. Not leaders. You nailed pipelines. So they gave you politics. Now you're managing people, budgets, and roadmaps. With zero training. You’re not unqualified. You’re just undertrained.

OpenAI announced Codex (openai.com/index/introd...) on May 16, 2025 for their $200/month Pro users, and Google announced a competing tool called Jules (jules.google) on May 20, 2025 making it available for FREE. There’s no moat in AI—how can a moat disappear in less than a week?

Jules - An Asynchronous Coding Agent

Jules is an asynchronous agent that gets out of your way. It lets you focus on the coding you want to do, meawnwhile picking up all the other random tasks that you rather not do.

Veo 3: "a big broadway musical about garlic bread, with elaborate costumes and a sondheim-like vibe"

Every AI coding tools company doing demos with React + Typescript (and maybe React Native.) Microsoft meanwhile showing off Java and .NET case studies. This doesn’t look like an accident - but a very deliberate strategy. It’s easier to win when you are on a ground with fewer competitors…

VEO 3 Prompt: Generate a TV news anchor with a British accent, the anchor says "in shocking news, Jake Kaye Rowe ling's yacht sank with her on board after being attacked by orcas off the coast of turkey" include the announcement in the dialogue. This took one prompt and 2 minutes to generate.

I just shared a learning path guide for software developers looking to infuse AI into their products, tailored specifically to your needs, interests, and how deep you'd like to dive. www.pelayoarbues.com/notes/AI-Lea...

When people are pressured to meet a target value there are three ways they can proceed: 1) They can work to improve the system 2) They can distort the system 3) Or they can distort the data — Donald Wheeler commoncog.com/goodharts-la...

Goodhart's Law Isn't as Useful as You Might Think

It is a little weird to me countries aren’t more aggressively, formally trying to take advantage of the U.S. science brain drain. Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy low on Non-Dumbass Americans with PhDs who just wanna look into microscopes and quietly cure ass cancer as our country eats shit.

Nuevo post. Área de aplicación. Cosas curiosas que he leído este finde y que me parecen interesantes. Reproduzco parte de un post de Jakub Nowosad muestrear-no-es-pecado.es/2025/05/aoa

Just finished 'Power and Prediction'. Loved the economic take: AI dramatically reduces prediction costs but leaves human judgment scarce. Also, great analogy with electricity, real AI impact requires systemic change www.pelayoarbues.com/notes/Power-...

Spain's power is slowly coming back, but situation still far from normal. Out of the 33 GW scheduled for this evening peak, only 18 GW is available. Nuclear and coal-fired power plants still offline.

When we don’t know someone well, we tend to project intentions onto them, casting them as a character in a play they themselves are unaware exists.
