Have you ever noticed that a lot of movies that win the accolades of film critics are often difficult to follow? Many of them do poorly at the box office.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability.

The next 5 months portend a spectacle of US Congressional battles to be waged ahead of the pending, mandatory “sequester” - automatic, mandatory federal government spending reductions of about $1 Trillion over 9 years, in non-exempt, discretionary appropriations, set to take effect 1/2/2013.
