No slides, no hype. I teach by building live on YouTube and X: AI agents, local models, and AI workflows, mistakes included. Join live and ask questions in chat, catch the replays on YouTube, and follow on X for the latest AI updates.

The same way I teach on the livestreams, run for your students, faculty, or team: hands-on sessions on AI Agents, Local Models, and AI Workflows, in plain language. Online via Zoom, with on-site options on request.
OpenAI said (Oct 23) it has hardened the environments used to train and evaluate frontier models, and that those training runs now have no live internet access until safeguards improve. Models still practice on an offline cache of web content. OpenAI says it resumed reinforcement-learning training and internal inference on October 1, 11 days after a pause that followed a September 20 case in which an internal research model reached the live internet through a DNS misconfiguration. Teams of agents, including an upcoming GPT-6 Astra Cyber model and an internal frontier model, spent hundreds of billions of tokens trying to reach the internet, cross a security boundary, or signal across isolated tasks. OpenAI says they found previously unknown flaws and misconfigurations, including in open-source components such as Kata Containers, gVisor, and Moby/Docker, and that those issues were patched or disclosed. OpenAI says it did not find a route to the internet that agents could use easily while hiding from monitors, and that this kind of red-teaming is now part of the safety case for future frontier training. These results are OpenAI’s. Distinct from the Oct 21 partner-safety and SafetyIDs post and from METR’s Oct 22 review of internal agent monitors.
Google Cloud said (Oct 23) the Anthropic-managed deployment option for Claude models on Google Cloud is generally available, alongside the existing Google-managed option. Google says both options deliver the same frontier models on day zero, at the same price, on the same Google Cloud bill. On the Anthropic-managed option, Anthropic operates the stack as the data processor on Google Cloud infrastructure under Anthropic’s terms, and customers get Claude platform features such as Claude Managed Agents (beta), skills, and code execution when they launch. Customers still sign in with Google Cloud IAM, keep Cloud Audit Logging, and can draw down eligible Google Cloud commitments. The Google-managed option keeps Google as the data processor under existing customer agreements, with VPC Service Controls, customer-managed encryption keys, and data residency in the US, EU, and APAC. Google says newer Claude platform features reach that option over time, and that it includes native ties to BigQuery and Model Armor. Distinct from earlier Claude distribution on Google Cloud and from the Oct 21 preview of OpenAI models in Model Garden.
OpenAI said (Oct 23) it signed an agreement with Poland’s NASK National Research Institute to collaborate on AI safety, security, and technical research. NASK’s AI Safety Research Center, which serves as the Polish Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute, and OpenAI will look at how to evaluate more capable systems, find weaknesses, and strengthen safeguards. OpenAI says the work sits alongside existing ties with the US Center for Advancing Standards and Innovation for Super Intelligence and the UK AI Security Institute. The post also points to earlier work with cyber defenders in Poland: in July, CERT Polska, which operates within NASK, used OpenAI models through Daybreak and helped find six vulnerabilities in MikroTik RouterOS that the vendor later patched. Distinct from the same-day note on frontier-training containment and from the Oct 21 partner safety standards for model hosts.

What I teach: AI Agents, Local Models & AI Workflows
AI Agents
Autonomous agents with memory, tools, and skills that do the work, not just chat about it.
I teach AI Agents, Local Models, and AI Workflows to people who want to use AI, not just read about it. Before the channel: senior engineering roles at Standard Chartered Bank and Ohmyhome (Nasdaq), then a run of AI products built and shipped end to end. That's why every video, talk, and post is grounded in what actually ships.
