Performing ad-hoc analysis is a daily part of life for most data scientists and analysts on operations teams. They are often held back by not having direct and immediate access to their data because the data might not be in a data warehouse or it might be stored across multiple systems in different formats. This typically means that a data engineer will need to help develop pipelines and tables that can be accessed in order for the analysts to do their work.

There’s a lot of noise surrounding the ability of AI agents to connect to your tools, systems and data. But building an AI application into a reliable, secure workflow agent isn’t as simple as plugging in an API. As an engineering leader, it can be challenging to make sense of this evolving landscape, but agent tooling provides such high value that it’s critical we figure out how to move forward.

Finding a deep learning model to perform well is an exciting feat. But, might there be other -- less complex -- models that perform just as well for your application? A simple complexity measure based on the statistical physics concept of Cascading Periodic Spectral Ergodicity (cPSE) can help us be computationally efficient by considering the least complex during model selection.
