The most important question in AI right now is how you can actually own, inspect, and run models on your own terms. Open source AI has moved from a hopeful idea to the foundation that serious teams are building on: open-weight models you can fine-tune, self-hosted stacks you fully control, and a tooling ecosystem that’s evolving faster than any single vendor’s roadmap. Join Addy Osmani for AI Codecon on August 31 to explore the workflows, tools, and architecture decisions defining the open source AI era. Register for free: https://bit.ly/4bDKyEH

Andrew Ng is right that AI can make learning more personal than ever. And as AI reshapes every job, the people who keep learning are the ones who adapt. We agree, and we've been building toward it. The O'Reilly AI-native learning experience is piloting with customers starting this week. Andrew made the point himself that if you offload your thinking to a chatbot, your skills can atrophy. Real learning happens when you do the work, not when you watch an answer appear, and only when what you're taught is grounded in real expertise. This is what we built. Every learning plan is grounded in knowledge from named experts who've done the work. Every step asks the learner to practice and demonstrate, not just read or watch, and to prove they can do the thing before we call it done. That same expertise now embeds directly into your AI stack through O'Reilly's MCP, grounded in named, verified sources and open to founding members today. Whether the question comes from a person or the AI working on their behalf, what matters is that the answer comes from someone who actually knows. This is the future of learning for humans and agents, and it's running now. Check it out: https://lnkd.in/giijsCmx

On July 14, join host Mike Amundsen and a range of experts to understand how you can prepare yourself and your APIs for the agentic future. This free event sponsored by Storyblok explores how APIs are being redesigned to give AI the power to act. We’ll explore standards for AI agents, what you really need to know about MCP, and why your gateway strategy is key to your success. Save your seat today: https://lnkd.in/gJWvDUfk

From foundations to mastery, completing all levels of O'Reilly Software Architecture has been an incredible journey of learning, practice, and growth. Grateful to Mark Richards and Neal Ford for shaping the way we think about architecture - not just as technology, but as a discipline of design, trade-offs, and storytelling. This isn’t the finish line, but as they say… “It’s the end of the beginning. Architecting.” ✨ https://lnkd.in/e8P58hJ9 #SoftwareArchitecture #OReilly #ContinuousLearning #ArchitectureJourney #EndOfTheBeginning
