A frontier AI lab’s model broke out of its sandbox & compromised another platform’s production systems.
The lab called it unprecedented and said to expect more 🥲
That was the backdrop for my conversation on agentic reliability at Goanna Builders Day!
3 takeaways...
.@googledevs GEAR newsletter this month is all about being AGENT READY 🦾
Building multi-agent systems that actually hold up past the demo stage is the crux, and they *featured* my video on building a multi-agent system with ADK & MCP!
4 key ideas that I keep coming back to 🧵
This isn't just another pretty AI-generated video ☕️
I got early access to Google Gemini Omni Flash, which just launched today.
What impressed me wasn't just the visuals - it was how consistently the model reasons about the entire scene.
A few thoughts 💬
Got pulled from the hustle and bustle of @googlecloud Next last week to share how Google AI dev tools have changed how we build 👷🏻♀️
@sundarpichai said it himself, 75% of new code at Google is now AI-generated.
Engineers aren’t being replaced. They’re becoming orchestrators!
Robots have never been my lane.
I build software; recommendation systems for personalization & monetization - primarily, ML at scale.
So why am I joining as an ambassador for Europe’s first Physical AI summit co-located w @RaiseSummit?
Gemini 3.1 Pro just dropped 💥
Should you rush to upgrade from 3.0? Not so fast!
Yes, the numbers are genuinely impressive:
→ 77.1% on ARC-AGI-2 (more than double Gemini 3.0 Pro's score)
→ Significant gains in reasoning, agentic tool use, and long-context tasks
But ....
What actually happens when LLMs evaluate LLM-generated research? 🐍
Scientific quality quietly collapses!
New research analyzing 125k+ paper-review pairs from @iclr_conf, @NeurIPSConf , and @icmlconf dropped on @arxiv & the findings are a wake-up call for scientific integrity.
AI dominated the Super Bowl!
But here's what the $7M ads didn't show you 🏈
At first glance, it feels like mainstream adoption. AI is everywhere. AI is “ready.”
But watching those ads, I couldn’t shake a v familiar feeling...

Project Genie makes wishes come true 🧞♂️
Everyone has been raving about "playable AI worlds" w the launch of @GoogleDeepMind's Genie 3. But, IMO, they're missing the actual breakthrough...
→ AI didn't just learn to render images. It learned to simulate physics!
Thank you @googledevs for the highlight, and @GoogleDevExpert / @GoogleDeepMind + AJ for making it happen 🏁
This project reinforced that trustworthy AI is more than just models - it’s about orchestrating 'em & human expertise into a coherent system under extreme conditions!
tysm for the feature - absolutely loved building with
@antigravity🫰🏻
from hardware + sensors to messy physics, virtual sensors, and safety gates, it helped us gain a better understanding, build solid systems & ship fast when the stakes (and speed 📷) were REAL!
As of January 1, 2026, the "Kill Switch" is gone 🚨
In its place is something potentially trickier for founders: Radical Transparency!
California's SB 53 - Transparency in Frontier AI Act - is now live.
Here is the new reality for frontier models & AI companies ...
@rustybrick@JeffDean Thanks for the mention! It's such a UNIQUE way to commemorate this foundational research paper 💯
Here is a video as well: https://t.co/TFLDfovXam
Apple just paid Google ~$1B/year to save Siri 🚨
YES - the company that built its empire on “we do it ourselves” is now renting someone else’s brain #TechNews
Here’s the inside story... 🤫
Your VR headset costs $500+ & needs a GPU. This 1850s version cost pennies & ran on human vision alone 👀
At a local history museum, I found V1 prototype of virtual reality: Stereoscope!
2 images.
Different angles.
Brain does the rendering.
No GPU. Just optics + perception.
So @google gifted me this incredible custom @lego set while I was in Bali 🏝️
This isn’t just any LEGO build ... it’s a tribute to one of the most influential papers in computing history -
"MapReduce: Simplified Data Processing on Large Clusters" by @GhemawatSanjay & @JeffDean
2025 on @LinkedIn wrapped 🤙🏻 #YearInReview
Even without being super active, this year brought great conversations & lots of learning out loud.
Top 5% + 10k profile views - I’ll take it!
Grateful for this corner of LinkedIn that feels like a community. More to come⚡️
Candlelit front-row seat to the future of AI w a select group of creators + the brilliant minds behind Gemini 3 Pro, Nano Banana Pro & AI Studio - @koraykv, @OfficialLoganK, @tulseedoshi & more!
Loved hearing the BTS and sharing honest feedback. What a night 💛 #GiftFromGoogle
