Most projects nowadays usually contain 2 different types of components: Thinking: understanding the problem, choosing an approach, identifying risks, designing the architecture and deciding how success will be measured.…
When I wrote the original version of this guide in 2022 , the career path was pretty straightforward. Learn SQL. Learn Python and R. Build some projects. Get an internship. Become a Data Analyst. Move into Data Science or Machine…
In 2023, “prompt engineer” briefly looked like it might become a real profession. Anthropic advertised a Prompt Engineer and Librarian role paying between $175,000 and $335,000 per year . The job involved figuring out the best…
Once an AI workflow works, the next problem is usually making it fast and cheap enough to use regularly. That, is an inference problem . Inference is the process of using a trained model to produce an output. Every time you send…
Most teams working with LLMs eventually run into the same problem, they know what they want the model to do, but they do not have enough examples of it. Maybe you want an internal AI assistant to classify support tickets, write…
A generic model such as GPT or Claude already knows how to write, summarize, classify, reason, and generate code. What it does not know is how your organization wants those tasks performed. It does not automatically know your…
A general purpose AI model can know a great deal about finance, law, programming, accounting, and business. Unfortunately, it still knows almost nothing about how your specific organization works. It does not know your internal…

Foundation models are powerful, but they still make a very human kind of mistake that is: “they answer confidently when they do not have enough information.” Aka, what we call “Hallucination” That is the core problem RAG solves.…
Once an AI application is public, it is no longer interacting only with well-behaved users. It is interacting with curious users, careless users, malicious users, hostile webpages, poisoned emails, weird documents, and tool…
Prompt engineering is the fastest way to improve an AI application. That is why everyone starts there. You do not need to retrain a model. You do not need new GPUs. You do not need to touch the model’s weights at all. You just…
