Why “It Depends” Is the Most Future-Proof Phrase in Software

Ask an architect almost any question and you’ll get the same answer: It depends. For years this answer has been the punchline of jokes about architects, but in an era when AI can generate a working service faster than you can describe it, “it depends” is one of the most important phrases in software. It […]

Local tracing in the DataRobot CLI: catch issues before production

Building an agentic application is a loop: ask the agent a question, see how it responds, and when something’s off, investigate why. Most of the time it works, but when it doesn’t, it’s rarely caught in your local environment. It’s after you’ve deployed, on a request that behaved fine right up until it didn’t. That’s

In 2020, engineers pumped 225,000 cubic yards of dredged sediment into the Columbia River; it became four new islands now being studied as salmon habitat

In an exciting environmental initiative, dredged sediment is being repurposed to form new islands aimed at habitat restoration. Engineers have meticulously placed this sediment to construct islands and adjacent channels along the river. Researchers are examining these man-made islands to gauge their impact on supporting wildlife, especially juvenile salmon. This pioneering technique may pave the

Booksellers suspect AI firms are buying and then destroying rare books

If you can truly appreciate an old book—and maybe even marvel at how its fragile, yellowing pages contain some of the earliest ways that people tried to make sense of the world around them—then headlines about tech companies that are destroying books to train AI likely torture a tender part of your soul. It’s indeed

AI agents aren’t legally responsible for any harm that they cause, experts say. So who is?

Following Australia’s first reported automated hacking accident, experts warn deployers – and possibly developers – of AI agents could be held liable for the actions of their botsGet our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcastThe law is clear, says Prof Jeannie Paterson. “If I deploy an AI agent and it causes harm
