Part 1 of 4 · Notes on Ikana Business Review’s Mini Strategy Handbook for AI Founders: launch → distribute → read the signal → decide. This one’s about launching, and it’s a framework I have personally, embarrassingly, half-implemented. Ikana Busin...

AI engineering renames itself every six weeks. Underneath the funeral, something real is happening and it's not what the eulogy says. There’s a clip going around, an Anthropic lead in an interview, saying, roughly, that we don’t prompt models any mo...

Airbnb published how it evaluates GenAI at scale, and it’s excellent. It’s also, underneath the vocabulary, the funniest engineering document of the year: a nine-figure AI operation whose most ad Airbnb’s engineering team just published how they run...

Prompt engineering is already sounding quaint. The people who build the coding agents have stopped prompting them. Here’s what “loop engineering” actually means, and the one loop nobody can automate. There’s a quote from a few weeks ago that I keep ...
