Today in Tech Book Author trends, another round of emails from people who've obtained a pirated PDF of one of my Django books and asking permission to read it. I get emails like this somewhat often. Am I alone in this regard? This is one reason, among many, that I now largely have content on LearnDjango.com or in print form. Just the email load alone from non-customers can be overwhelming on things like this and other matters.

My @DjangoCon US :django: :python: talk on "Django for AI" is now live on YouTube. I cover how to train a basic Machine Learning model, deploy it with Django, and also how to connect a Django web app to a local LLM model via Ollama. There's also a text-based write-up here with link to the three related GitHub repos.

I really enjoyed chatting with Tobias Macey recently for an episode of his AI Engineering Podcast. We talked about how get the most out of current AI agents, creating agent rules, constraining the blast radius, local models, and how @npub1nnwk...ytvc is thinking about all these factors while working on its own AI agent, Junie. We also touched upon the recent @Django Django Developers Survey 2025 results that just came out.
