On the last week's Zero to Agent in 30 Mins, Craig Hewitt demonstrated how to turn a fresh Hermes installation into a social media agent that can study a person’s writing, draft posts, and plan recurring research, focusing on the context, workflows, and safeguards: bit.ly/4weVeB3
Christina Stathopoulos, MSc focused in on 4 forces we’ve been tracking that are shaping the AI market: product strategy (and OpenAI’s hardware plans), expanding government oversight, the work of moving enterprise AI into production, and growing competition from Chinese frontier labs: bit.ly/4wxP67W
We don’t just show you what agents can do. We show you how they think. You’ll learn the specific skills required to manage memory, integrate external tools, and orchestrate multi-agent swarms. Save your free spot: https://bit.ly/3SYO59S
We kicked off Zero to Agent in 30 Minutes this week with guest John Berryman. He set the stage by defining an agent as a large language model wrapped in two loops. An outer loop passes messages back and forth to the user. What turns an AI tool into an agent is the inner loop: bit.ly/3Rk10CY
Every Wednesday, join us for this weekly build series where you’ll learn to create real production-ready agents live. Each 30-minute sprint focuses on building a different working agent while introducing the latest AI tools, powerful techniques, pro tips, and clever tricks. https://bit.ly/3SYO59S
This week, Christina Stathopoulos, MSc continued her run sorting the week’s most impactful stories into a handful of themes we’ve been watching play out over the past month: more firms investing in the compute AI runs on, more concerns about who controls a model’s borders, and more: bit.ly/3RDx1pD
Chelsea Troy joined @gradientflow.com to cover the state of entry-level hiring, why the software engineering interview has been broken for decades, what it means to teach Python in 2026, and more. Check it out: bit.ly/4hneQ1I
Good news for those who prefer reading their way to new skills. We’ve expanded our skill plans to include text-based learning paths built on O’Reilly’s trusted books and guides. Video or text, we’re rolling out skill plans for the way you learn best: https://bit.ly/4f6COeU

On August 11, join Sam Newman and expert guests for Software Development Superstream sponsored by Antithesis to explore the critical transition from being a conductor of a single agent to becoming an orchestrator of many. Save your free spot today: https://bit.ly/4gCKLen
On July 21, join Chelsea Troy for a free live session on agentic coding that will be driven entirely by your questions and conversation. You’ll explore advanced agentic coding situations and problems O’Reilly members are facing, and solve them in real time using Claude Code: bit.ly/4poRvin
Christina Stathopoulos sorted the week’s headlines into a handful of threads: advances in physical hardware to keep up with AI demand, the widening reach of government oversight into frontier model companies, and a workforce that’s reorganizing faster than job titles can describe it: bit.ly/4vr9G8v
We’re heading to Ai4 2026 in Las Vegas on August 4-6. Stop by our booth #309 to chat about how O’Reilly helps organizations give their teams access to trusted AI content, expert instructors, and practical learning that keeps pace with today’s technology. Are you attending Ai4 this year?
As Dan Guido puts it: “AI works. Most companies are using it wrong. They give people tools without changing the system. That’s the gap between AI-assisted and AI native.” On July 9, Dan joins @timoreilly.bsky.social for a live chat and Q&A: bit.ly/4chZk4H
Andreas Welsch was joined by Matt Palmer to work through what the US government’s export restrictions on frontier AI models mean for practitioners, why delegating to agents isn’t as effortless as it sounds, and what Sakana AI’s new Fugu system offers as an alternative architecture: bit.ly/4eXtbiE
@timoreilly.bsky.social and Harper Carroll had a great conversation about fine-tuning versus prompting, what it actually means to learn to code in 2025, and what the AI field gets wrong when it talks to the public. Check it out on our #Radar: bit.ly/4xUGhpH
This week host and Turing Post founder Ksenia Se threaded the latest news into a single argument: AI is moving out of conversation and into the operational loops where real work happens: bit.ly/4vDIzrQ
