  Dear all, I am working on Agents, Agentic AI and AI research in general that focused on Safety and Security. I spent years trying to think and write books. Right now I have a newsletter that helps executives learn faster with the latest news https://securedgenai.substack.com/ In free time, I try to write book and learn Quantum. 

 I am looking for any position, any type of projects, any form of collaboration as if it helps me pay bills to write more.

I've been moving around AI and frontier tech for a decade. Starting as PhD Dropout when AI isn't hot, I become a nomad traveling to many different countries to upgrade skills and knowledge. This includes San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Montreal, Paris, Berlin, Lausanne, Singapore, Jakarta, etc. When the pandemic happens, I become a human writer and catch early move of LLMs as a user.

I was an early user of chatGPT and met Sam Altman. Also many more LLMs like Claude, Gemini, etc.

Now, I am working on GenAI safety and security, i.e. Agent, Agentic AI, LLMs, etc. Check out my latest post and more: https://securedgenai.substack.com/p/review-agent-security

Outside work, I recycle garbage and plant trees. I also enjoy traveling and learn from the local every where I visit.

Welcome to this curated list of tools, frameworks, and best practices for securing and responsibly using generative AI.

There is a global outage this morning starting from 8:00 AM. This list has Google, Tiktok, Zoom, Slack and of course FB products and services.
Re:Facebook-owned sites were down on Monday October 04, 2021 @03:27PM (#28750974)
Not only facebook, but also Google, Zoom, Telegram, Youtube and many more internet service/ product/ providers from 8:00 AM today. This is more like internet outage.
Re:Fortran Web Framework on Monday September 13, 2021 @02:26PM (#28514918)
I was shocked to see this language popped up as a web framework. Before this, it was something belonged to a computational science lab with a BIG project in 1990s.

Better tools do not make people be better. Just have a task done faster. The best hacker/ dev I know can code without an IDE. They only need a plain text editor and can tell how wrong the terminal is without Google.
Thank you for your answer.
Hi Peter, I am thinking of applying EB1A, however still wondering about the competitiveness of this VISA and IEPP, e.g. processing time, fee, acceptance rate, etc. Would you mind providing some of your thought? Thank you.
If you don't like it, just need not to read -- what was wrong?

Re:What is the Fourth Dimension? (1884) on Sunday May 30, 2021 @12:42PM (#27334472)
You might want to look at Simplex to describe better and more rigorously. Simplex is the most basic structure to describe a space in n-dimension.

0-simplex: a point.

1-simplex: a segment (points and lines)

2-simplex: a rectangle (points, lines, and surfaces)

3-simplex: a tedrahedron (points, lines, surface and a 3D space that most of human can comprehend visually)

4-simplex: everything above and the whole combination of these element in algebra.

This is how mathematician and physicists solve problems. Time is a separate element in our equations that why we often talk space-time, not just space

If we assume the world is a cube, I would think of 4D as a several projections of 3D cubes in another 3D cube. For higher dimension, I find myself in algebraic topology. This is really tortuous to think of these concepts.

PG also has an article about this -- tl;dr. it is about pure creativity, imagination and experiments.
Re:The problem with ‘follow your dream’ on Saturday May 22, 2021 @08:04AM (#27245707)
What works for me is diversifying experience. Life is a box of chocolate, you will never know what you are gonna get.
Just do what you love. If it does not make you feel happy, do something else. You are at the exploratory phase - don't commit too early if you are not truly deeply interested in those. It's indeed a key to win a game.
You might be too early to those companies. In your case, I would learn about people first before doing anything. During a pandemic, everything just becomes hard for everybody so if you don't really know people (at least in-person contact or a strong ref) - should not invest too much time.
Re:China bans cryptocurrency from banks, payment systems on Thursday May 20, 2021 @08:59AM (#27220530)
Heard this news yesterday on social media. I thought this would be a possibility but turns out it has been done. The same time with the blood bath day of Crypto.
