    Claude Cowork vs MS Copilot Cowork

    March 20, 2026 - By Praveen Nair

    Similarities  Aspect Core idea Delegate multi-step tasks to AI — it plans, executes, checks in, and delivers AI engine Both use Claude as the underlying model and share the same “agentic harness” — the system that allows the AI to use tools and the guardrails around how it functions Human-in-loop Both show you a plan before acting, require approvals for significant actions, and let you redirect mid-task Background execution Tasks run asynchronously — you can step away and come back to completed work MCP standard Both use the Model Context Protocol for connecting to external tools Status Both currently in…

    Azure Cosmos DB vs GCP Firestore – some no-schema thoughts

    March 12, 2026 - By Praveen Nair

    I agree here that the comparison is between apples and oranges, but it has at least a near-similar round shape. Cosmos DB: Account -> Database -> Container -> Item/Document  Firestore: Database -> Collection -> Document -> Subcollection -> Document -> …

    Article: Architecting the enterprise AI reality: A blueprint for integration and value

    February 23, 2026 - By Praveen Nair

    In the past, the tech world was obsessed with the raw potential of artificial intelligence. Today, the conversation has moved entirely to verifiable integrations, strict governance, and clear returns on investment. Building a massive system is only half the battle. The other half is proving the system is secure, compliant, and financially viable for the business. Let us explore the core views that shape how large scale systems are built and validated in the real world.

    My journey of building an AI-Powered App for a pseudoscience project

    January 19, 2026 - By Praveen Nair

    I recently worked on an AI project that was quite unusual. It was about analyzing the past, present, and future of a person’s life. Yes, you guessed it right. Astrology. More specifically, this project focused on Vedic Astrology using the Kerala system. As someone who builds AI systems for a living, and being someone who loves solving challenging problems, I was excited. Modern AI tools make it incredibly easy to spin up apps quickly. But here is the reality check. The whole concept of “vibe coding” is still evolving, especially when it comes to complex data analysis, probabilistic workflows, and…

    Article: Do AI Agents learn automatically?

    January 17, 2026 - By Praveen Nair

    AI agents are often described as autonomous, adaptive, and intelligent. This can create the impression that they automatically learn from every interaction and continuously improve on their own. In reality, most AI agents do not learn automatically. They must be explicitly designed, configured, or programmed to learn. Understanding this distinction is critical when building real-world AI systems. Key Takeaways: Contrary to popular belief, AI agents do not automatically learn from interactions. Once deployed, their internal models are “frozen” unless explicitly engineered otherwise. An agent remembering your name or past context is simply data retrieval (eg. RAG), not learning. True learning…
