Tonight I attended an AI, Agents & NASA event at Trinity College Dublin.

The talks focused on agent-based AI systems, scientific research workflows, and how organizations like NASA are exploring AI to accelerate knowledge discovery.

One thing that stood out to me was the shift from AI as a chatbot to AI as an operator — systems that can search, analyze, coordinate tasks, and execute workflows.

It was also interesting on a personal level. For years, I've used NASA astronomical data in some of my own projects, including date-selection and calendar-based systems. Seeing researchers discuss practical applications of the same data ecosystem was a reminder that good systems are often built on reliable data foundations.

The biggest takeaway: the future isn't just smarter models. It's better orchestration, automation, and real-world execution.

Still thinking about how these ideas can be applied to the products I'm building.
