Large-language-model (LLM) tools now let engineers describe pipeline goals in plain English and receive generated code—a workflow dubbed vibe coding. Used well, it can accelerate prototyping and documentation. Used carelessly, it can introduce silent data corruption, security risks, or unmaintainable code. This article explains where vibe coding genuinely helps and where traditional engineering discipline remains…
Vizro is an open-source Python toolkit by McKinsey that makes it easy to build beautiful, production-ready data visualization apps. With just a few lines of configuration (via JSON, YAML, or Python dictionaries), you can create multi-page dashboards that would normally take thousands of lines of code. Built on top of Plotly, Dash, and Pydantic, Vizro…
The explosive growth of artificial intelligence, particularly large language models (LLMs), has revolutionized how businesses operate, from automating customer service to enhancing data analysis. Yet, as enterprises integrate AI into core workflows, a persistent challenge emerges: how to securely and efficiently connect these models to real-world data sources without custom, fragmented integrations. Introduced by Anthropic…
Ovis2.5, the latest large multimodal language model (MLLM) from Alibaba’s AIDC-AI team, is making waves in the open-source AI community with its 9B and 2B parameter variants. Ovis2.5 sets new benchmarks for performance and efficiency by introducing technical advances geared toward native-resolution vision perception, deep multimodal reasoning, and robust OCR — tackling long-standing limitations faced…
Hugging Face has just released AI Sheets, a free, open-source, and local-first no-code tool designed to radically simplify dataset creation and enrichment with AI. AI Sheets aims to democratize access to AI-powered data handling by merging the intuitive spreadsheet interface with direct access to leading open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) like Qwen, Kimi, Llama 3,…
In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to test an OpenAI model against single-turn adversarial attacks using deepteam. deepteam provides 10+ attack methods—like prompt injection, jailbreaking, and leetspeak—that expose weaknesses in LLM applications. It begins with simple baseline attacks and then applies more advanced techniques (known as attack enhancement) to mimic real-world malicious behavior. Check out…
Amazon has reached a remarkable milestone by deploying its one-millionth robot across global fulfillment and sortation centers, solidifying its position as the world’s largest operator of industrial mobile robotics. This achievement coincides with the launch of DeepFleet, a groundbreaking suite of foundation models designed to enhance coordination among vast fleets of mobile robots. Trained on…
In this tutorial, we implement an advanced data pipeline using Dagster. We set up a custom CSV-based IOManager to persist assets, define partitioned daily data generation, and process synthetic sales data through cleaning, feature engineering, and model training. Along the way, we add a data-quality asset check to validate nulls, ranges, and categorical values, and…
