AI-Infused Optimization in the Wild: Developing a Companion Planting
GRDN.AI 3.0 optimizes companion planting with an AI-infused genetic algorithm. In this article, I will break down how I developed the application, demonstrating a unique fusion of cutting-edge LLM agents with classic methodologies in decision sciences.

Prototyping a Volunteer Search App with Metaphor API and LLMs
In this article, we will step away from RAG and walk through an example project that uses a different stack: an application powered by Metaphor API, an LLM, and prompt chaining. Empowering LLMs with tools like Metaphor API, a dynamic semantic search engine, lets us develop in a way that an LLM agent can now cruise through and extract information from the internet and social media. Not only does the LLM “connect to the internet,” but the Metaphor API allows for neural searches and is tailored for LLM use.
