LocalIntelligence 1.2 just released

December 14, 2025

This is a minor release with one small but useful feature. I added a slider in the General pane of the Settings window to set the default context window size that will apply to all models. Previously, this value could only be set on a per model basis. The App Store version is currently under […]

Three new macOS AI demos

December 10, 2025

Today I have released three new macOS AI demos: I have developed these demos for my team at IBM to help them easily demonstrate complex concepts to our customers. All three demos require a SingleStore account because each demo uses a different table to store its data and also require a container running on OrbStack […]

November 25, 2025

Today I was invited by the UAM University to discuss AI and the impact it may have on the economy at the 2025 Annual Public Policy Colloquium. It was a blast to discuss both AI and Economics. I am extremely thankful to Dr. Pablo López Sarabia for the invitation. The video is available here

LocalIntelligence 1.1.1

November 24, 2025

I have released a small update to Local Intelligence to fix a small but critical bug. It turns out that some models have a context window smaller or larger than the values that can be configured using the slider and that could cause a crash. Everything should be working fine now. The AppStore version was […]

Agentic AI has finally allowed generative AI to break out of the chat box and interact with the real world to obtain real-time information and act by connecting to APIs. MCP has proven to be a significant breakthrough and applications are popping up everywhere. That said, this is just […]

I was invited by the National Autonomous University of Mexico toggle the keynote speech of their first AI international congress. It is always a pleasure to work with universities and share points of view of where the industry is moving. On this occasion, my talk wasn’t technical, it focused on the global effects we may […]

From the Data Warehouse to the Data Lakehouse

July 1, 2024

I have been extremely fortunate to join Informix Software in 1997, back when Data Management was still an emerging discipline and Data Warehousing was in its infancy. That has allowed me to see the evolution of Data Analytics and understand why the structured and unstructured data explosion have created hard to solve challenges that have […]

Using Granite-code model with VS Code

June 6, 2024

I just released a new video on my YouTube channel to explain (in Spanish) how to freely use IBM’s Granite-code with VS Code. Since it is a fairly simple process, the video is quite short. Granite-code is a fairly simple completion model with no reasoning capabilities, and therefore is quite limited in its functionality, but […]
