  1. I see you have connectors for a bunch of services. A Schwab / Robinhood connector would be sweet.
  2. I was helping my dad figure out how he could set up a daily news bot for his stock portfolio, and Zo looks like the answer!

    A sandboxed AI that operates on all my context (and helps me write scripts to import the necessary context from other services) is exactly the model of personal intelligence that I want.

  3. Love opening with LeWitt and Eno.

    I really like this para: > Another significant change is that workflows can be long‑lived and self‑healing: if run on always-on compute like servers, agents can schedule and repair persistent or recurring work like report generation, data pipelines, or crawl-and-summarize tasks, always resuming from state,with a general purpose recovery mechanism. The significance of generality is worth calling out, because in some sense it is the crux of what is new. These systems are inherently more robust than traditional symbolic programs because they have a modality that is complete at the expense of consistency: all inputs will produce some response from an LLM, whereas most possible inputs will crash most classical functions. Whether or not the general handler will “do the right thing” comes down to the quality of the specification.

    And this one: > When the shape of programming changes to encapsulate multiple levels of abstraction, the basic unit of work changes from specifying lines of code to specifying any of: line of code, logic, function, capability, behavior, application. Our new programs will buy determinism with checks. Type systems, property‑based tests, schema checks, idempotent operations (declarative codegen), and permission policies make runs repeatable and failures bounded; agents work is graded by those deterministic gates.

  12. A slightly deeper look into vector storage, and the things you can do with embeddings: https://maven.com/blog/embeddings
  13. I compared a few options including OS/ES here: https://maven.com/blog/embeddings
  14. +1, I've been using OpenSearch (basically Elasticsearch 7.0), and have been pretty happy with the setup so far.

    OpenSearch specifically has an edge over Elasticsearch because it supports vectors up to 10k dimensions, whereas ES maxes out at indexing 1024 dimensions, which isn't enough to support OpenAI's 1536 dimension vectors.

    And then there's the benefit of it being well documented / Q&A'd, and able to support regular searching, faceting, etc. as well.
