From your first LLM call to production multi-agent systems

Four stages, in the order AI engineering teams build: models first, then knowledge, then agents, then everything that keeps them reliable in production.

All courses
  1. Stage 1 · Foundations

    Generative AI and large language models

    How LLMs work, prompting, structured outputs and tool calling: the base every AI application stands on.

All answers

What is AI product development?

AI product development is the practice of building product features whose behaviour depends on a machine-learning model, usually a language model. It differs from ordinary product work in three ways: output is probabilistic, quality must be measured with evaluations, and launch plans need guardrails for wrong answers.

Full answer

How do you evaluate an LLM feature before launch?

Build an evaluation set of at least 50 real inputs with expected outputs, grade responses with a mix of exact checks, model-based graders and human review, and set a pass threshold before launch. Run the same set on every prompt or model change so regressions are caught before users see them.
