Where Architects Sit in the Era of AI
As AI evolves from tool to collaborator, architects must shift from manual design to meta-design. This article introduces the "Three Loops" framework (In, On, Out) to help navigate this transition. It explores how to balance oversight with delegation, mitigate risks like skill atrophy, and design the governance structures that keep AI-augmented systems safe and aligned with human intent.

Architecture in a Flow of AI-Augmented Change
While AI adoption is surging, most organizations fail to scale past pilots. The solution lies in organizational structure, not just technology. This article details how architects can enable "fast flow" by defining clear domains and guardrails. Learn how to shift from controlling outcomes to curating context, allowing AI to drive continuous, valuable business change.

Reducing False Positives in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Semantic Caching: a Banking Case Study
In this article, author Elakkiya Daivam discusses why Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and semantic caching techniques are powerful levers for reducing false positives in AI powered applications. She shares the insights from a production-grade evaluation with 1,000 query variations tested across seven bi-encoder models.

A Plan-Do-Check-Act Framework for AI Code Generation
AI code generation tools promise faster development but often create quality issues, integration problems, and delivery delays. A structured Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle can maintain code quality while leveraging AI capabilities. Through working agreements, structured prompts, and continuous retrospection, it asserts accountability over code while guiding AI to produce tested, maintainable software.

Disaggregation in Large Language Models: the Next Evolution in AI Infrastructure
Large Language Model (LLM) inference faces a fundamental challenge: the same hardware that excels at processing input prompts struggles with generating responses, and vice versa. Disaggregated serving architectures solve this by separating these distinct computational phases, delivering throughput improvements and better resource utilization while reducing costs.

How Causal Reasoning Addresses the Limitations of LLMs in Observability
Large language models excel at converting observability telemetry into clear summaries but struggle with accurate root cause analysis in distributed systems. LLMs often hallucinate explanations and confuse symptoms with causes. This article suggests how causal reasoning models with Bayesian inference offer more reliable incident diagnosis.
