A field guide to the people, organizations, and ideas in our reporting.
@Ahmad Awais
Developer and founder of Command Code whose AI work focuses on learning coding preferences and composing agents from infrastructure primitives.
2024 in Agents: From Executable Actions to Useful Software Work
A practical account of coding agents: how they use tools, recover from errors, reuse workflows, and turn human feedback into completed work.
2024 in Vision: From Moving Pictures to Reading the Needle
Video generation, segmentation with memory, faster detectors, and the challenge of teaching small models to see precise details.
A data copilot needs to know what your metrics mean
Statsbot’s early Slack interface exposed two problems: understanding a question and understanding the data. Cube’s semantic layer separated them—and foundation models reopened the conversational side.
A Farewell Until GTC — Part 3 of 3
Part 3 of 3: the closing exchange of Latent Space’s conversation on NVIDIA’s AI engineering.

Andreessen Horowitz combines technology investment with operating support, experimental developer tools, and analysis of AI businesses across models, applications, and physical infrastructure.
AAIF
The Agentic AI Foundation is a Linux Foundation directed fund hosting open protocols, tools, and infrastructure for AI agents.
Aaron Levie
Box’s CEO and cofounder has focused on enterprise AI agents, the information they need, and the permissions and organizational changes required to put them to work.
Aaron Stanley
dbt Labs security leader whose AI governance work emphasizes enforceable constraints, recoverable mistakes, and informed human oversight.
Aarush Selvan
Product manager who helped create Gemini Deep Research, with an emphasis on editable plans, visible sources and research grounded in users’ needs.
Abhinav Venigalla
Research scientist and language-model architect who led MPT-7B training at MosaicML and DBRX development at Databricks.
Abhishek Bhardwaj
Systems engineer who built Arrakis, microVM-based sandboxes for AI-agent computer use and code execution.
Abridge
Healthcare AI company whose products evolved from recording patient conversations to clinical documentation, decision support, and revenue cycle workflows.
Abridge: From Clinical Notes to Decisions During the Visit
Ambient documentation gives Abridge a starting point for a harder problem: delivering accurate, timely assistance while clinicians can still act on it.
Adam Wiggins
Heroku and Ink & Switch cofounder whose work spans AI interfaces, personalized email triage, local-first software, and portable application architecture.
Addy Osmani
Engineering leader working on Claude Code, publisher of workflows for AI coding agents, and advocate for human responsibility in automated development.
Adept
An AI company whose 2022–2024 work combined software-action models and enterprise workflows; in June 2024 it narrowed its focus as co-founders and some staff joined Amazon.
After DevDay: Open Models, Faster Tools, and the Work of Building — Part 4 of 4
Part 4 of 4 moves from an open-source community gathering to Julius AI’s practical priorities: faster answers, multiple tool calls, visual feedback, and building useful products alongside a competing platform.
After SWE-bench: Evaluating What Happens After the Patch
From broader task coverage to persistent codebases, coding evaluations are confronting what it means for an agent to do useful development.
Agent engineering with Pydantic: types, graphs, and observable execution
Pydantic’s approach to agents connects data contracts, explicit control flow, and visibility into running applications.
Ahmad Osman
Osmantic’s founder and CEO advocates local, open AI built around usable tools, specialized models and control of compute.
AI Breakdown
Nathaniel Whittemore’s AI news podcast and publication, combining news analysis with conversations about models, tools and developer practice.
AI Engineer
A conference and technical education organization focused on building with foundation models, with public recordings, open-source conference tools, and an agent-accessible knowledge library.
AI Engineering Starts at the Model Boundary
A June 2024 conversation about turning foundation models into products, learning from deployment, and planning for changing inference costs and capabilities.
AI for Materials Discovery: From Molecular Designs to Materials That Work
Unexpected polymer designs, active learning and quantum chemistry reveal what it takes to turn a promising prediction into a useful material.
AI Is Eating Search: What Websites Must Deliver
As assistants take over discovery and reading, businesses need content that survives search selection, answers concrete questions, and reaches the model intact.
AI Startups in 2024: Cheaper Models, Harder Product Questions
Closer model competition widened the opportunity for startups. Conviction’s NeurIPS 2024 keynote examined where that opportunity depended on better models—and where it depended on data, distribution and execution.
AI Startups: From Data Infrastructure to Products That Learn
The dbt–Fivetran merger, oversized seed rounds, and the product case for memory and continual learning.
AI Video’s New Bottlenecks: Characters, Control, and Distribution
Generating a clip is becoming easier. Sustaining a character, controlling the result, and turning attention into a business still take work.
AI’s Bottlenecks Move Beyond the GPU — Part 3 of 3
The final part follows AI infrastructure from financing and chip supply to memory budgets, specialized accelerators and CPU demand, before closing on writing habits and the value of stepping away.
