See how ChatGPT for Excel can help finance teams review a CFO performance workbook before it goes out.

In this demo, ChatGPT checks tie-outs across model tabs, flags issues like stale source data and revenue mismatches, creates a QA issue log, drafts owner questions, and gives a clear readiness verdict.

How h2oGPTe enables no-code Super Agent customization and auto-generated multi-agent Python code using CrewAI and LangGraph.

Enterprises often need agents tailored to specific workflows beyond built-in defaults. h2oGPTe supports two approaches: the Super Agent can be rapidly customized using system prompts, collections, and tool configurations without any code. For advanced requirements, the Agent Builder generates fully executable Python source code by accepting a natural language workflow description, selecting the right framework (CrewAI or LangGraph), and running an internal build-test-refine loop. Agents also generate standardized A2A protocol files for cross-framework interoperability.

Technical Capabilities & Resources

➤ Super Agent Customization: Configure task-specific agents using custom system prompts, collections, and tool orchestration—no code required.
🔗 https://docs.h2o.ai/enterprise-h2ogpte/guide/agents#how-it-works

➤ Agent Builder & Code Generation: Generate production-ready Python code for custom agents using CrewAI, LangGraph, or the OpenAI SDK.

➤ Multi-Agent Ecosystems (A2A Protocol): Automatically generate A2A communication files for agent interoperability across different frameworks.

Large Language Models (LLMs) can inherit hidden biases from their training data—including censorship bias. This talk explores how training on censored internet content can shape AI outputs, especially in Simplified Chinese datasets affected by state censorship.
Learn about a new research method comparing responses in Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese to detect censorship bias in popular AI models from Google, Meta, OpenAI, and Anthropic. The findings reveal evidence of censorship bias across multiple leading LLMs.
We’ll also discuss the wider implications for AI privacy, security, and trust, including risks of generative AI in the software supply chain and how open source communities can respond.

FOSSASIA Summit 2026 held in Bangkok, is Asia’s leading Open Source tech conference featuring sessions on #AI, #Cloud, #DevOps, #Open Hardware, #Security, #Web #Mobile Technologies, #Web3, and #Databases. Learn more: http://summit.fossasia.org

I just want to give you some explanation. I’m sure most of you barelly notice I haven’t posted in a while. It’s been a month or so, and I know it, believe me. Sometimes life happens. I have a job that is incredibly demanding lately, and I’ve been having to play catch up quite a bit. I’m not usually the person catching up. I’m usually the one on the cutting edge of anything in the tech world, but with AI being a massive focus at my company, I’ve been left behind a bit.

Additionally, I’ve been working, with my wife, on a huge project to landscape our yard. It’s a large-ish yard (garden for you Brits) at a bit over a half acre (2026 sq meters). This takes an immense amount of watering, and living in a desert region…that’s super expensive. So we are Xeriscaping a large portion of the front yard. This eats up all of my weekends lately as well. I do have new videos in the works, so please stick with me, and new content is coming.
