one day someone skeptical of #llm #llms will take me up on this. my timeline still feels like i'm living in an alternate universe.

As a former tech journalist, I wholeheartedly agree with this!!
"A tech writer is that person who, like a seasoned reporter, chases the product news and presents it, making sure that they’ve collected the strongest evidence. It’s a matter of persistence. Like a particularly learned bulldog, the human writer won’t let go of the news: it’s theirs to bring past the finish line, which means going live, even if the outcome is rough around the edges. DevRels, once shunned by tech writers, are being vindicated in that their humanity is the only thing that can stand out in seas of slop.
For years, we have complained about being treated like formatting factories or syntax janitors. Now that AI is taking those tasks off our plates, and with them a certain comfort zone, we seem afraid to admit that our work is about chasing truth and providing fellow humans with direction. We are in the business of empowering people to build incredible stuff through AI, not that of sticking sentences together in files and chunking content using some dialect of XML. We can no longer hide behind chores: it’s time to guide."

Docs as code used to mean editing docs as if they were code. Today it also means that docs have become executable, either as agentic instructions, skills, or context for large language models. Tech writers must now ensure that the reference and procedures they’ve carefully written and edited are the best possible fuel for AI, lest they jam the machine or make it stray into dangerous territory. Humans have their own needs though. Who feeds them?
One week of intensive but very fruitful discussions in Bertinoro Castle together with 18 top #AI researchers to shape the future of the International #semanticweb Research Summer School. Stay tuned for next year‘s upgraded revision! Kudos to all participants and your valuable feedback!

🦞 If you've used a coding agent or a claw, you've been using an agent harness. But why do LLMs need a "harness"? What does it do? And how much the quality of the harness impacts the capabilities of an agent?
