Why Agentic Systems Need Ontologies — Frank Coyle, UC Berkeley
Frank Coyle argues that agentic AI systems require formal ontologies to enable reliable reasoning, interoperability, and safe autonomous complex decision‑making.
How LLMs Distort Our Written Language
LLMs distort written language by shifting semantics, altering conclusions, and removing personal voice, even when instructed to make minimal edits.
Building Brains on a Computer
Recent advances in expansion microscopy, protein barcoding, and AI-based connectomics make full human brain emulation plausible within decades, but require massive data acquisition and compute.

Takes

Woz is back! I am his first customer. He got my career started. I stuffed so many of his motherboards as a kid. While we sat around and watched TV. My dad built custom holders so we could stuff them while sitting on the couch. And a custom set of wires to take away any static electricity. I once got to interview Woz in front of UC Berkeley’s business school. Said they had fewer failures than the ones built in its own factory. What we didn’t discuss is how much love we put into them. They were technology from an alien world. There wasn’t anything else like it in my life. Woz is still the nicest founder I have ever met. And the original nerd. As I get older I realize how special those few hundred hours spent with him were. Not to mention he gave me $40,000 worth of Mac’s to run the school paper on. And I remember thinking to myself, as we sat in the cafeteria of West Valley Community College, “can’t get that kind of education at Stanford.” When @elonmusk talks about putting love into his products, I get that deeply.
