Part 1: Foundation, Architecture & Authentication Introduction Building a production-ready AI agent chatbot requires more than just connecting to an LLM. You need secure authentication, scalable infrastructure, persistent memory, and seamless tool integration. In this three-part series, I walk through implementing a complete Amazon Bedrock AgentCore solution for a business assistant chatbot. I’ll try to elaborate on […]

Compressed External Latent State (CELS)

tl;dr: We find that by emulating a language model’s internal latent space, represented as a graph, we achieve 99% fewer tokens while retaining the level of semantic meaning. What Latent Space Actually Is Latent space is the hidden geometry where modern language models actually think. Inside every transformer layer, the model continuously compresses meaning into […]

How to Protect Your Agent from AI Cyber Espionage with Guardrails

If you’re building AI agents right now, the Anthropic GTG-1002 story should be stuck in your head. Last week, Anthropic published a report detailing what they’ve determined as the first reported “AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign”. Chinese state actors used Claude to orchestrate full-scale cyber espionage. Not hypothetically. Not in a lab. In the real world, against real […]

Agentic AI Fundamentals

Understanding Core Concepts of Agentic AI A core challenge in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reasoning under uncertainty. Historically, AI models were used transactionally for well-defined objectives. However, with the emergent knowledge and reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) attained over the last decade, even more complex and open-ended problems can now be solved autonomously. […]

Cursor Development 201

A Practical Guide to Building Robust, AI-Accelerated Software Workflows in Cursor Cursor is not just an IDE with AI bolted on — it is a development environment designed around the assumption that AI will participate directly in the coding loop. This shifts the role of the engineer from sole author to technical director: you shape the […]

The Final Horizon: How Science Fiction Froze Our Imagination — and AI Finished the Job

TL;DR: Science fiction taught us to treat the cosmos as unknowably vast, and we stopped trying to understand it. Cosmology became a postgraduate pursuit instead of a public curiosity. The Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution democratized knowledge; the AI revolution is privatizing it. 1. When Wonder Replaced Curiosity As a kid, I never understood why […]

Introduction In today’s data-driven world, organizations are constantly seeking ways to make their data more accessible to non-technical users. Traditional SQL queries require specialized knowledge and can be intimidating for business users who need quick insights from their data. Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base with Redshift integration offers a revolutionary solution that bridges this gap by enabling natural […]

Case Study: Automating Google and Jira Admin Tasks with AWS AgentCore

Executive Summary Administrative tasks in Google Workspace and Jira have consumed hundreds of staff hours for our team each quarter. These tasks — ranging from user provisioning to project setup — were repetitive, error-prone, and often delayed due to backlogs. By building a Slack-first automation interface powered by AWS AgentCore primitives (Gateway, Memory, Identity), we achieved a 90% reduction in admin time for common […]
