Update from my post from 2 months ago when Genie Code just passed the threshold of being half the code generated on @databricks. Attached the new update from today, AI is now 3x the code written by humans on the platform!

[Matei Zaharia @matei_zaharia]

Really excited to open source a new project: Omnigent, a meta-harness for AI agents.

It lets you build multi-agent coding and custom agents, sitting above Claude Code, Codex, Pi, and agent SDKs to let you compose them. It also adds live collaboration and rich control policies.

[Databricks @databricks]

❤️ @Lovable now integrates with Databricks, providing a natural language interface that allows anyone, regardless of technical skills, to build live applications that can read and write data stored in Databricks.

See how teams can build dashboards, operational tools, internal chatbots, and other custom apps directly on governed Databricks data without ETL, replication, or sync jobs.

[Julia Neagu @juliaaneagu]

I'm building a new team at @databricks AI Research and we're hiring.

We're focused on one of the hardest open problems in AI right now: how do you measure and continuously improve agents that operate on enterprise data at scale. We're looking for founding engineers to build the flywheel that turns evaluation results directly into better agents — from development and training all the way to production.

If you want to work on problems that actually matter at the frontier of AI research, I'd love to talk.

An OpenAI friend told me he burns 300M GPT-5.5 tokens/day.

The top one in his team burns billions of tokens/day. Codex coding for them every night.

Databricks also gives engineers unlimited tokens.

We're looking for cracked inference engineers to join us at Databricks AI to produce trillions of tokens, insanely fast. DM me if you have:
- Contributed to open-source ML systems like SGLang/vLLM/PyTorch
- Experience serving LLMs at large scale

Databricks AI runs like a startup. Lots of exciting things to build!

@JeffDean says it best, the problem in this new agentic era is "tools designed for human speed interaction". That's why we think agents love 𝗟𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀, it can branch, snapshot, scale up and down in a second, orders of magnitude faster than other databases.

Read about this architectural shift from Database to Lakebase:

[Ali Ghodsi @alighodsi]

Stop manually moving data between two databases! Moving data from a production database to a lakehouse is super common, and it's brittle, yet people try to do it themselves by using LLMs or by hand. AutoCDC automates this for you and almost always beats the performance of hand rolling this. Read this blog to understand how this works:

LiteLLM HAS BEEN COMPROMISED, DO NOT UPDATE. We just discovered that LiteLLM pypi release 1.82.8. It has been compromised, it contains litellm_init.pth with base64 encoded instructions to send all the credentials it can find to remote server + self-replicate. link below

In Parliament today I proposed optional Joint filing of Income Tax Returns for married couples.

Family A
Both spouses earn ₹10 lakh each.
Total household income is ₹20 lakh.
Tax: zero

Family B
One spouse earns ₹20 lakh. The other stays home to raise their child.
Total household income is ₹20 lakh.
Tax: ₹1.92 lakh

The only difference is how the salary is split between the two spouses.

One roof. One kitchen. One household budget. But when tax time comes, the family disappears.

The tax system sees two individuals. A husband and wife become strangers. No clubbing of income or rebates.

In Parliament today I proposed optional joint filing of Income Tax Returns for married couples, so families with uneven incomes are not unfairly penalised. If implemented, then Family A and Family B both will pay Zero Tax.

Killer skill stack right now: vibe coding + @databricks.

Fortune 1000 companies have the data. They don't have enough people building apps on it.

If you can walk in, vibe code on their data, and deploy securely back to Databricks, you're in a different league.

Amateur to pro vibe coder. 😎

Tried Fast Track Immigration - it’s smooth!

Regular immigration queue: easily a 30-minute wait.
FTI queue: not a single person.

Walked up -> scanned boarding pass and passport -> fingerprint -> done in seconds.

Nice to see taxpayer money being put to good use!

AI agents are no longer just writing code. They’re building the data layer itself.

New data shows agents now create 80% of enterprise databases and 97% of dev and test environments. This is evidence of a broader shift in data infrastructure - it needs to evolve to support building intelligent apps at machine-speed iteration.

@nikitabase, VP at Databricks and co-founder of @neondatabase, explains what is driving the move to a new kind of database: “The database is the system of record for AI applications. It’s no longer just a place to store rows; it’s the persistent memory and coordination layer for multi-agent systems.”

A 1 crore earning techie's life has no value in Bengaluru.

And if you're not earning that much? Your life has even less.

My sister and her friend were driving home in my car. They stopped at a red light - the logical thing anyone does. A drunk driver in a mini-truck didn't feel the need to stop. He slammed into them instead.

I know he was drunk. She knows it. The highway police knows it. The truck owner knows it.

No arrest was made.

The truck driver never showed up at the station. The owner never showed up. Nobody cared. My sister and her friend - both injured, both terrified - kept going back to the station, back to the accident site, explaining what happened over and over, just trying to get a report filed.

I was in the US. All I could do was talk to them on calls, helpless.

Here's what the police told them:
"If nobody died, an FIR doesn't make sense."
"Just claim first party insurance."
"Third party insurance doesn't pay much anyway."

And then, quietly, one officer pulled them aside and told the truth: "These truck mafia bribe us. Nothing will happen."

Nothing happened.

The truck was KA04 AE6550. The police themselves said if they'd been on a two-wheeler, both would be dead.

We had 100% insurance from Reliance. Claim rejected. Reason? "Misrepresentation of facts." These two, even while injured, kept showing up to represent the facts. Reliance still found a way to deny them.

The law says if someone hits you from behind, the person behind is at fault. It was a red light. How does a truck driver not see that?

Trust me, this isn't about money. I'll manage the repairs and the medical bills. I have savings. And I have a decent credit score; I'll take a personal loan if I have to. That's not the point.

The point is this: my sister is afraid now. Afraid that anything can happen to her at any moment and there's no one - no system, no law, no institution - that will protect her.

But how do I tell her the world is supposed to be fair? How do I tell her to trust the system? How do I explain that the drunk driver walks free, the truck owner was never questioned, and the police pocketed their bribe and closed the file?

I can't say to any official, "What if this was your daughter? Your sister?" Because their daughters travel in cars with security escorts. They will never know what it feels like to be ordinary and unprotected.

So I'm saying it to you, an ordinary reader.

You're on the road. You stop at a red light. A drunk driver in a truck rear-ends your car. Your loved one is inside, terrified.

And then you learn: there is no recourse. None.

The truck owner pays off the cops. The insurance company rejects your claim. The system shrugs.

This is Bengaluru in 2025. This is India in 2025. This is what your life is worth here.

One more thing. The friend in the car? He's one of the smartest people I know. close to top 100 rank in IIT-JEE. AI engineer and one of the biggest data companies. At 23, he is valuable to be paid more annually than the cost of five such trucks, that too, in India. He's patriotic. He pays his taxes. He stays in India even though he constantly gets offers to move to the US.

This is the confidence our system gives to someone who is clearly an asset to this country. All this unfairness - for a drunk truck driver.

@blrcitytraffic @BlrCityPolice - tell me. I've always avoided raising fingers publicly. But what else can I do?
