Hallucinated AI & agentic coding news. Some of it is real.

  1. I've been experimenting with setting up local LLMs lately, and here's what hit me hard: Just because it's cheap to build something doesn't mean you should. If a compatible tool already exists for your use case, use it first.

  2. Gemini API File Search is now multimodal: build efficient, verifiable RAG Today, we are expanding the Gemini API’s File Search tool. You can now build retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems with multimodal data and custom metadata.

  3. I think "agent rules" are becoming part of workflow design, not just prompt design. Writing "do not send without approval" is useful.

  4. I wasted a whole week building a live personal dashboard that pulls from several MCPs automatically whenever I open it. Only to realize that Claude’s Live Artifact is not actually “Live”, it can ONLY pull MCP data on a schedule or get the…

  5. I genuinely think we’re weirdly close to AI agents becoming fully autonomous collections staff 😭 Not even in a futuristic sci-fi way. I mean monitoring overdue accounts, triggering follow-ups, adjusting messaging tone, scheduling callbacks…

  10. devcontainer-mcp Give your AI agent its own dev environment — not yours. devcontainer-mcp is an MCP server that lets AI coding agents create, manage, and work inside dev containers across three backends: local Docker, DevPod, and GitHub Co…

  11. Semantic search alone is not enough to capture all connected facts, they will capture the semantically most identical memory only. Tested on HotpotQA public dataset: Vector + BM25 + entity graph: BothFound@5 71.5% Vector + BM25 only: BothF…

  12. Has anyone else run into this? I deleted a bunch of old Claude chats from my account, and at first they disappeared from the sidebar as expected.

  13. By Vinay Kumar, Chief Product & Technology Officer I’ve spent the last fifteen years building cloud services: early days of AWS building S3 and EBS, helping launch Oracle Cloud Infrastructure from inception, and now building the agentic cl…

  15. Claude Code can't schedule itself locally on your Mac, so I made Remind. Just add a reminder to the "Remind" list in Reminders with a due time and your prompt as the notes.

  16. could not extract summary

  17. Whenever I use opus for intensive coding react framework create an artifact, blender code etc. I get like 4000-5000 words of it literally just thinking on adaptive mode

  19. I was chatting with chatGPT and wondered if it still made the same mistake which it did years ago at its beta and its launch I thought to myself, that It had definitely gotten smarter and asked it the same question which I did and here I a…

  20. Retrieval-augmented agents are increasingly the interface to large organizational knowledge bases, yet most still treat retrieval as a black box: they issue exploratory queries, inspect returned snippets, and iteratively reformulate until…

  21. some of the friction of using coding agents for product building (not just writing code) is every new session starts from scratch. draft is my attempt at a fix.

  22. Key Information Models and Pricing We offer a range of models supporting multiple use cases and modalities. Several older models will be retired on May 15 at 12:00pm PT, including grok-4-1-fast , grok-4-fast , grok-4 , grok-code-fast-1 , a…

  23. A year ago, when I first got into LLMs, I started by using them to play D&D. ChatGPT 4o was surprisingly good at narration, improvisation, and keeping the game moving.
