Scaling Autonomous Agents with OpenClaw and Ollama
The paper presents a framework for building scalable, autonomous AI agent systems by combining the OpenClaw orchestration layer with local LLM execution via Ollama, addressing key bottlenecks in agentic workflows.
Designing AI Agents to Minimize Hallucination
AI agents hallucinate because they are trained to prioritize fluent, confident pattern completion over factual accuracy. You can mitigate this by grounding agents in real-time data, enforcing tool-based verification, strictly defining operational scope, and implementing human-in-the-loop oversight.
IBM TechnologyScaling AI Adoption Through Governance and Employee Agency
Univé transformed its operations by treating AI as an organizational shift rather than an IT project, using strong governance to empower employees to build 1,500+ custom GPTs and automate complex workflows.
Building Abundant Intelligence: A Full-Stack Economic Strategy
OpenAI argues that AI value is driven by a cycle of increasing model capability, falling costs, and broader adoption, achieved by optimizing the entire stack—from infrastructure to product design.
Automating Ascend C Operator Generation with AgenticCANN
AgenticCANN leverages a knowledge-augmented agentic evolution framework to automate the complex, manual process of writing high-performance Ascend C operators for AI hardware.
Teaching AI to Hack: Moving Beyond Benchmaxxing
To build effective AI security agents, developers must move from simple crash-based benchmarks to deterministic, multi-vulnerability 'audit tasks' that measure real exploitation capabilities like arbitrary code execution.
Designing Environments for Long-Horizon AI Agents
Long-horizon AI performance depends on environment and verifier design, not just benchmark scores. Success requires moving beyond token-based metrics to state-based verification and intelligent, agentic judges.
Beyond RLHF: Moving from AI Assistance to Reliable Automation
Current AI is optimized for human preference, making it excellent at assistance but unreliable for autonomous tasks. The next era of AI requires shifting from human-in-the-loop approval to verifiable, objective rewards to achieve true automation.
