Learning Resources for Agentic AI

A former colleague recently asked me for some suggested resources on learning about Agentic AI...this blog post is a placeholder as I organize my thoughts.

Status: Work-In-Progress 

 

Upcoming conferences & webinars:

  

 

 

Suggested Books: 

[Caveat: I Have not read these yet. Listed in order of expected value for the reader...]

 

Some Interesting Videos | Articles:

 

Suggested Research Papers:

In no particular order, touching on a number of design considerations, security, risks, or limitations

Agentic AI Protocols

  

Akka Enterprise Agentic AI  

"Akka is a platform for building, running and evaluating agentic systems. It includes a framework, runtime, streaming engine, and memory store for creating any kind of agentic system: AI, autonomous, real-time, adaptive, transactional, analytical, or edge. The Akka Runtime is the most widely adopted actor-based runtime in the world, enabling high-throughput, stateful services that are resilient, elastic and responsive. Akka runs on any infrastructure: public cloud, private cloud or on-premises."

 


Spring AI

"Spring AI is an application framework for AI engineering. Its goal is to apply to the AI domain Spring ecosystem design principles such as portability and modular design and promote using POJOs as the building blocks of an application to the AI domain."

2019-09-03 Tuesday - Notes on Learning WebAssembly

I've setup a new github repository to organize my notes on learning more about WebAssembly:

Some of the best talks I've found on YouTube about WebAssembly, are by Lin Clark:

2019-04-27 Saturday - LaTeX learning resources

I've been mildly curious about learning LaTeX for a long time - and while reading many articles this weekend by Jeremy Kun, PhD - and being intrigued by his use of it to assemble both his dissertation - as well as self-publishing his book, "A Programmer's Introduction to Mathematics" - I spent a bit of time assembling this Tips.LaTeX.md file.

In particular, I spent some time assembling a list of what appear to be some of the more useful video tutorials available on YouTube.  If you have additional resource suggestions - you can leave a comment below.

2018-10-23 Tuesday - Camtasia Tips & Tutorials

I watched an interesting tutorial on Youtube recently, and I was impressed by some of the tricks and techniques that were used to make the video more engaging (like zooming in and out of different parts of a screen). 

This post is a placeholder for links to interesting resources, collections of tips, documentation, and tutorials on becoming a more proficient user of Camtasia...

Zooming:
  • https://www.techsmith.com/blog/how-to-zoom-in-on-a-video/
    • "Make sure to set your project dimensions (i.e. the size of the video you will produce) smaller than the media you’re working with. Any videos or images you choose will look best when displayed at their natural size, that is, 100% scale."
    • "Add zooms to a video in Camtasia by changing the scale (think: relative size) of a clip over a period of time. As the scale of the clip increases or decreases, it gives the effect of getting closer to or farther away from the subject."
    • "Create a zoom effect by adding an animation to a clip on the Camtasia timeline. Animations allow you to change the properties of a clip over a period of time. To add an animation go to the Animations tab and drag a Custom animation to a clip."
    • "The next step is to edit the clip’s properties at the end of the animation. First, place the playhead to the right of the animation.
    • "To create the effect of zooming in on the clip, go to the Properties panel and increase the scale by dragging the slider to the right. If you want to zoom out, decrease the scale by dragging the slider to the left."

2018-05-20 Sunday - Conda Package Manager

In preparation for exploring fast.ai deep learning library, lessons, and tutorials...

As well as PyTorch tutorials...

I'm reading-up on the Conda package, dependency and environment manager
  • https://conda.io/docs/index.html
    • "Package, dependency and environment management for any language—Python, R, Ruby, Lua, Scala, Java, JavaScript, C/ C++, FORTRAN"
