I tested 5 approaches to guiding AI agent behavior across 3,000 eval runs to see what actually makes agents reliable. Strands steering hooks was the only one that hit 100% accuracy
Here's how it works:
The key is just-in-time guidance for the model before tool calls and at the end of a turn. Steering handlers observe what the agent is doing and intervene only when the model is about to go off track.

You don't need to spend a bunch of money to try openclaw. Amazon Lightsail just released a blueprint for it that you can run for as little as $12/month + whatever tokens you consume. It's also easy to setup. See tutorial here: https://t.co/kKkOAYbRWt
Prof. Donald Knuth opened his new paper with "Shock! Shock!"
Claude Opus 4.6 had just solved an open problem he'd been working on for weeks — a graph decomposition conjecture from The Art of Computer Programming.
He named the paper "Claude's Cycles."
31 explorations. ~1 hour. Knuth read the output, wrote the formal proof, and closed with: "It seems I'll have to revise my opinions about generative AI one of these days."
The man who wrote the bible of computer science just said that. In a paper named after an AI.

Today @AWScloud is pushing the frontier of agent development with the launch of Strands Labs—a new GitHub org for experimental agentic AI projects. Push the frontier of agentic development and get started with one of three agent development projects in our new Git organization ➡️ https://t.co/FG8RSwxAuq
Excited to see what you'll build with Strands Labs.
80% of AI adoption fails because leaders don't use the tools they're pushing.
How my team increased GenAI adoption from 40% → 100% in 4 months using 5 simple strategies.

5. If you can SOP it, you can automate it
Best predictor of AI success? Clear instructions. Break problems into step-by-step processes first.
AI is great at following structured instructions.

🤔📧 What would you do if you meant to send a high-priority email to leadership but accidentally sent a calendar invite instead? 📅😬
And what if that person is 8️⃣ hours ahead in their timezone? 🌍💼
