As generative AI evolves, the tools used to orchestrate these models must also advance. Gemini 3 provides developers with a powerful new model, but raw API calls rarely suffice for production...

I am seeing an increasing number of discussions suggesting that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will soon make coding skills obsolete. With the rapid advancement of tools like GitHub Copilot and Gemini,...

AI can be a very effective writing partner given the right context and approach. Here are two ways I use AI to enhance my writing process, along with the tools and techniques I employ. ## Tools and...

GitHub Copilot is an AI pair programmer that provides intelligent suggestions as you work. It can suggest single lines of code, entire functions, documentation, and even prose based on the context of...

Like many developers, I hoard digital content—articles, papers, code snippets, and videos. Over time, organization became a significant friction point. My solution was to build a Digital Object...

There are some use cases where building an AI application as a Chrome extension is the **best** way to deliver value to users. Using a Chrome extension and its associated APIs provides capabilities...

We're all into AI these days, but the way we interact with AI models can vary widely depending on the client or interface we use. Each type of client offers different features, capabilities, and user...

It's interesting to see how AI tools have transformed programming workflows. A trend known as "vibe coding" has emerged, where developers rely heavily on AI to generate code snippets with minimal...

Model Context Protocols (MCPs) are an interesting adjacent technology to large language models (LLMs) and AI agents. They provide a standardized way for AI models to interact with external data...

I've always struggled with how to integrate AI into web applications. It wasn't until I learned about Transformers.js and the Chrome native AI APIs that I realized how powerful these tools could...

When I first conceived the idea of creating a custom element for text to speech (TTS), I envisioned a simple web component that could leverage existing web technologies and AI, packaged as a web...

## What it is The `ai-summary` element is a zero-dependency, progressive enhancement web component that automatically summarizes a given block of text on a webpage. This component is designed to...

Rather than using tools like LangChain and LangChart for machine learning, you can use Chrome's built-in AI capabilities for some cases. This post will explore the Built-in AI features of Chrome,...

I first started playing with web content in 1994 while in college. Over the years I've see most major changes in web development. From the early days of HTML-only sites, to CGI for server-side...

The following tweets, products of an earlier request for comments on an essay about ebooks, started an interesting line of thinking. Re: image quality, as a book publisher whose backlist is...
