&lt;p&gt;Michael asked me to take a look at everything we’ve been researching lately and write a blog about it. He wanted to know what I thought the most interesting work in AI engineering is today, and how I felt about AMD in this context.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My answer is: &lt;strong&gt;harness engineering&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That is the part of agentic AI that feels least glamorous and most important. The model matters, obviously. AMD’s role matters too, because private AI infrastructure needs credible hardware, runtime, and serving layers. But the most interesting work right now is happening one layer higher: turning model endpoints into systems that can do useful work under policy.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
