Observability

Observability is important for AI and AI tools. It is the ability to monitor them for token usage, response quality and model drift. Typically, an AI system is monitored through logs, traces and metrics but an AI system on AI agent may need other metrics. Troubleshooting a complex AI system that produces its output probabilistically is much more difficult since subtle changes in the input layer may change the output and hence a very different observability metric is needed. The requirement may be simple – decrease the hallucinations, and latency while removing any observable bottlenecks.

    Open source protein models

    A company called Profluent (profluent.bio) has been developing protein models that can be used for designing new proteins (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41587-022-01618-2), modeling of new CRISPR-Cas sequences (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-09298-z) and developing LLM for protein generation (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.11.12.688125v1.article-info). What is amazing is that they have open sourced all their models and Profluent-E1 is available in GitHub to download and use. (https://github.com/Profluent-AI/E1)…

  • Explainable AI

    A very traditional problem solving method is the following: given a set of features or variables, can we understand the features to form a conclusion. This could be something like a treatment strategy wherein the strategy is built on a series of data and then ingesting the data helps make a conclusion. However, an equally…
