MLOps for edge AI: Preparing AI models for deployment at the edge

Red Hat blog @ 2026-10-05 02:00:00

When I started playing with AI models for edge computing use cases, everything went smoothly. But once I reached the "it works" point and started thinking about how to operationalize it, the whole thing became more complicated. I started to question how a

How many humans does it take to make tech seem human? Do you want to be one of them?

Computational Complexity @ 2026-10-04 22:14:32

  (This was written about 9 months ago.  Its not out of date... yet) People think that AI is going to DESTROY some jobs and CREATE some jobs. It may be too early to tell if this is true. Even so, here are some thoughts.  1) Who will w

Miquel’s pentagon theorem

The Endeavour @ 2026-10-04 14:34:22

An earlier post presented an elegant plane geometry theorem discovered by the 19th century school teacher Auguste Miquel. This post presents his pentagon theorem. Start with a pentagon. It may be irregular, but it needs to be convex. Extend each of the si

Topological models of modal logic

The Endeavour @ 2026-10-04 14:25:19

The previous post discussed a superficial connection between modal logic and topology, that both use the terms regular and normal to indicate added sets of axioms. McKinsey and Tarski developed a deeper connection between modal logic and topology that we&

Modal logic and topology

The Endeavour @ 2026-10-04 14:24:33

You can’t say much about modal logic in general. You have to be more specific to get anywhere. You have to choose some axioms. Ideally the axioms you need for your application correspond to a named set of axioms that has been studied before. The sit

Miquel’s pivot theorem

The Endeavour @ 2026-10-04 00:53:41

Euclidean geometry dates back at least to Euclid (circa 300 BC), and so you might think it’s been pretty well picked over by now. And yet people still occasionally discover new plane geometry theorems. Some of these new theorems are complicated, ask
