Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) is the neutral and open foundation built on transparency, collaboration, and standardization to advance the public interest in agentic AI innovation.

Dungeon Crawler Ethan Mollick In which I draw a strained analogy with the barest of connective tissue...

I've been enjoying the Dungeon Crawler Carl series of books by Matt Dinniman. The way he interacts with his fans/readers shares commonalities with how @emollick.bsky.social interacts with his audience... admittedly this might also just be me talking about DCC.

60 Hours a week? How about 4 uniterrupted hours a day? ..or...the AGI meetings will continue until morale improves.

State Department Intake Thoughts... In which I talk about days gone by, and how much I think about my friends in federal service in the age of muskrump mismanagement of government. Doge? Seriously?

I , as you might imagine, have thoughts about the shitshow that is doge and the fed.... though I pollute my thoughts with reminisces (how many plural s' or i's do I add to this word?) of my early career.

Sadly, I think they already claimed JD VyVance.

As you might expect, I've been up LCC. I donated to the patrol fund two or three years ago after a whoopsie that dislocated my right shoulder. They were terrific . I'm really glad Vail came to their senses, though all of this could have been avoided literally years ago.

It's absurdly popular. When driving through Montana/Big Sky last week it was like one big cosplay for the show....

Where were you? What's next? A NCIS gravy boat?
