  4. System 3: Towards Fluent Autonomy

    What could a mighty billion-parameter reasoning machine learn from a camel trying to touch its ear with its tongue? From a cup of coffee? From deleting your entire codebase while you sleep? More than you’d think. And less than you’d hope. Today’s AI is brilliant structure without grounding—a hollow genius. We chase smarter models but ignore the architecture they need. This book is about building that missing layer: the trust chains and systems that turn raw intelligence into reliable autonomy. For builders ready to move beyond prompts.Watch agents solve unsolvable problems. Learn to think in trust chains. Start here.

  13. Forecasting Metrics That Don’t Lie
    Forecasting Metrics That Don’t Lie
    Choosing, Testing, and Monitoring Forecast Metrics for Demand, Inventory, and Risk Decisions
    Valery Manokhin

    A model that wins on MAPE can lose money on the shelf. A 15% accuracy gain can hide a 12% bias. An interval that looks tight can be wrong a third of the time.Forecast metrics are decision instruments, not neutral truth detectors — and most teams are still choosing them by habit. This book shows where MAE, MAPE, sMAPE, WAPE, MASE, RMSSE, CRPS, pinball loss, energy scores, bias measures and cost-based metrics help, and where they quietly mislead.Twelve chapters take you from elicitation and baselines through intermittent demand, probabilistic and hierarchical scoring, and the accuracy–utility gap, to a production evaluation system with monitoring, drift detection, alerting and governance. Every metric arrives with its assumptions, every criticism carries a remedy, and a retrospective Walmart M5 case study runs throughout, with Python listings and reproducibility checks.For demand planners, forecasting data scientists, ML engineers and analytics leads who need evaluation choices they can defend. Measure what matters.
