2026-09-08 / thought-leaders-researcherJay Alammar and Maarten Grootendorst ship An Illustrated Guide to AI Agents with 300+ original figuresThe pair announced the ebook is now live on Kindle and other stores with print copies shipping in a few weeks, after a year of work and over 300 original diagrams. It covers agent architecture (tools, memory, planning), reasoning and multimodal LLMs, multi-agent collaboration, and deployment-side techniques including distillation, quantization and RL. Alammar's Illustrated Transformer is the reference most engineers actually learned attention from, which is the reason to expect this to become the default shared vocabulary for agent design.
