Mental Models in Architecture and Societal Views of Technology: A Conversation with Nimisha Asthagiri

In this podcast, Michael Stiefel spoke with Nimisha Asthagiri about the importance of system thinking, multi-agent systems, the consequences of society applying a technology into an area for which it was not designed, and whether we can ever have a healthy relationship with artificial intelligence.

Deploy MultiModal RAG Systems with vLLM

Stephen Batifol discusses building and optimizing self-hosted, multimodal RAG systems. He breaks down vector search, nearest neighbor indexes (FLAT, IVF, HNSW), and the critical role of choosing the right embedding model. He then explains vLLM inference optimization (paged attention, quantization) and uses Mistral's Pixtral to detail multimodal large language model architecture.

Systems Thinking for Scaling Responsible Multi-Agent Architectures

Nimisha Asthagiri explains the critical need for responsible AI in complex multi-agent systems. She shares practical techniques for engineering leaders and architects, applying systems thinking and Causal Flow Diagrams. She shows how these methods help predict and mitigate the unintended consequences and structural risks inherent in autonomous, learning agents, using a scheduler agent example.
