Trinity: A Family of Foundation Models

​Join us live tomorrow at 1:00 PM ET to hear about Trinity, the new family of foundation models from Arcee. They aim to reboot U.S. open source AI with this release! Join us live with CTO Lucas Atkins to dig into The Trinity Manifesto learn exactly how they trained their latest and greatest.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT!

Agent Engineering

LangChain hit v1.0, announced Series B, proclaimed Agent Engineering, and we were there to break down how LangGraph has overtaken LangChain at a foundational level, and how it's easier than ever to create_agents.

State of AI Engineering

In the decade of agents, should we just call it "Agent Engineering" like LangChain? We looked at the latest "State of" drops and provided an AI Makerspace-style overview of what we believe is worth holding on to from 2025 and what' worth looking forward to in the new year!

Multimodal RAG

In this introduction to multimodal RAG we covered the landscape a bit and broke down why it's so hard to discuss such a wide topic! We dug into one of the latest drops from AI2, olmOCR 2 to inch our way towards more multimodal events in 2026!

How to Build ChatGPT

Part V was the final part of our How to Build ChatGPT Series, and focused on how to add features to our homegrown ChatGPT clone! If you're interested in building, shipping, and sharing on your own, start here! We covered how to add thinking models and Deep Research

The AI Engineering Bootcamp

​The AI Engineering Bootcamp, Cohort 8 Demo Day was a blast! Check out the 27 Demo Day Presentations that students built πŸ—οΈ, shipped 🚒, and shared πŸš€. Cohort 9 kicks off on January 13, 2026! Apply today, complete The AI Engineer Challenge, and enroll for a chance to compete in Cohort 9's Demo Day on March 19th, just in time for job hunting season!

To keep learning, check out the Awesome AIM Index, YouTube, or our open-source courses, including LLM Foundations, LLM Engineering, and LLM Ops.

Keep building πŸ—οΈ shipping 🚒 and sharing πŸš€, and we'll do the same!

Cheers,

​Dr. Greg, The Wiz, Jacops, Laura The Legend, and all of the AI Makerspace staff, ambassadors, and volunteers we couldn't run our courses and community without!
