Agents Can't Decide What's Okay to Break
The bottleneck isn't just deciding what to build. Running this year's AI-focused Hacktoberfest, MLH's head of product and engineering found the harder question is knowing what's safe and justified to break, and how those breaks cascade to other systems and people.
What 9,050 AI-Written Scripts Taught Me About Slop
Towards AI drafts thousands of videos, courses, and articles with AI, and too much of it read like slop. After measuring 9,050 scripts across model configurations since June, the surprise was that the telltale "slop words" turn out to be fairly easy to fix.

AI Needs a Test That Fights Back
One right answer is not the same as a good sequence of decisions. Unlike a fixed answer key, an opponent responds, and eSlams is building a public stadium to test how AI handles that.
Code is abundant. Confidence is a formula.
Agents can now produce an initial solution in minutes, and the volume of code will only rise. The next challenge for engineering organizations isn't generating more code; it's creating confidence in the code that reaches production.
Brakes Let You Go Fast: Balancing Acceleration and Safety for AI Agents
At a regulated firm like Two Sigma, too little safety is an existential risk and too little innovation is a slow death. How the right controls let agents operate in production without handcuffing what they can accomplish.
