This weekend I had orders from my wife to cook something different. So, off I went looking for all the ingredients we had at home. This dish is mish-mash of different items. This recipe also happens to be the first one where I have used hrecipe tags.

The Many Faces of Val Kilmer

Image
Tribute to The Saint This is a tribute long overdue. To the movie and one of my favorite actors - Val Kilmer. He’s had many successful movies, but perhaps a favorite of mine is “ The Saint ” from 1997. And, the luminescent Elizabeth Shue provides an apt foil for Val Kilmer. In keeping with the namesake in the movie, the original soundtrack for the movie by Graeme Revell is medieval and atmospheric. In a recent interview, the “Past Lives” actress Greta Lee describes Val Kilmer in this movie being one of her early inspirations. While the movie “The Saint” is not seen as a critical or commercial success, if it inspired a brilliant actress, who can complain. In the movie, Val disguises himself after Catholic saints. As a "Saint Head", something I always wanted to understand a bit more, a background of all the Catholic saints that crop up in the movie.  Simon Magus Val Kilmer as the character “Simon, The Magician” Simon Magus is a controversial figure in Christian history. He is...

Vibe coding your way to Agentic AI

Image
If someone told me that “vibe coding” would be a thing someday, I would have laughed it away. But, here we are. Agentic AI is already starting to change the way we interact with AI. One can think of vibe coding as an “agentic” way of developing software. Let’s see how one can “vibe code” an Agentic AI application. Tools of the Trade No pun intended, here are the developer tools one could use. The Cloud Editor in Google Cloud Shell. This editor is similar in look and feel to VS Code. So, the application development can now happen entirely in the cloud, without installing anything on the laptop. Install the Roo Code extension  in the Cloud Shell Editor and configure it to use Gemini 2.0 Flash. You will have to create an API Key and set it up, as shown below. Lastly, we will use Google Agent Development Kit  (ADK) framework to create an agentic application. Once the Roo extension is installed, developer can use it in different modes such as - Architect, Code, Ask, Debug etc. Fo...

Meta Prompting for Success

Image
Meta Prompt  Regardless of the Generative AI model used, sometimes the model may refuse to provide a response for a valid prompt. Often the reasons cited are - "I don't know", "I am not trained for the task", "violation of safety/responsible/ethical guardrails". This is sometimes more acutely felt when using Generative AI models for creating images. Overcoming this behavior can be frustrating and time consuming. An approach is to ask the AI model itself to generate prompts so that the prose and nuances of prompting are aligned with how the AI model has been built. This is called meta-prompting . The theory is that the prompts created by the AI model would have better chance of working. Let's dive in to see if and how this meta-prompting works in Gemini .  How to Create a Meta Prompt As with all good prompts, start with a persona/situation that describes the overall context. Next, describe the task in detail. In this case, it is about creating some ...
