Paperback or Softback. Zustand: New. Building Reliable AI Systems: Applications and Agents You Can Trust. Book.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. This book shows you how to grow a promising prototype into a production product you can deliver, maintain, and scale. In 11 sharply-focused chapters, it walks you through a unique reliability process that author Rush Shahani refined while building an AI-powered sales intelligence platform used by over 15,000 go-to-market teams. Timely and practical, this book provides concrete steps to eliminate costly hallucinations, streamline computational resources, and confidently deploy secure, trustworthy, and compliant AI solutions. Youll immediately appreciate how Building Reliable AI Systems defines AI reliability along six critical dimensionsaccuracy and grounding, safe agency, graceful failure, consistency, fairness, and operational efficiencyand provides a specific three-layer framework to achieve these goals. The first layer, with a focus on outputs, shows you how to get consistent and accurate responses using well-engineered prompts, RAG, and model customization. The second layer, about agents, establishes parameters for memory, tool usage, and orchestration in agentic systems. The book concludes with the third layerReliable Operationscovering deployment, monitoring, and responsible AI. The books reliability framework emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between evaluation and reliability, proving that you cannot improve what you do not measure. Youll learn to measure your applications using fine-grained LLM-native evaluation rubrics like the Grounding Defect Rate, Hallucination Severity Score, and FActScore that audit everything from RAG outputs to the entire step-by-step reasoning trajectory of autonomous agents. Building Reliable AI Systems stays rooted in reality from start to finish. As you go, you will build several projects, including a multi-agent travel planner and a medical assistant, and use industry standard tools and specifications like LangGraph and MCP. In the helpful appendices youll find a handy reference architecture and decision-making checklists. Reviewer Mohamed Zohir Koufi, Lead AI Engineer at Capgemini, praises how the book brings together architecture, tooling, evaluation, and governance in the way real systems are built. By taking this comprehensive approach to LLMOps, the book delivers a reproducible process to ensure your applications stay cost-effective, fast, and compliant with enterprise standards like HIPAA and GDPR. What's inside Ground outputs in real business data Orchestrate safe, consistent multi-step agent workflows Implement robust monitoring, semantic caching, and multi-model fallbacks About the reader For Python-fluent software engineers and data scientists ready to build production-grade, reliable AI applications. About the author Rush Shahani is an AI leader who has spent his career shipping machine learning systems that hold up under real-world conditions. He co-founded Persana AI, a Y Combinator-backed sales intelligence platform that has joined forces with Rox. Before Persana, Rush built AI and search systems at LinkedIn and Element AI (acquired by ServiceNow), and backend and payments infrastructure at Shopify.

Neuware - Get the Elektronisches Buch free when you register your print book at Manning.This book shows you exactly how to guide large language models from research prototypes to scalable, robust, and efficient production systems. From model training to maintenance, an engineer will find everything they need to work with LLMs in this one-stop guide. This book complements Sebastian Raschka's Build a Large Language Model (From Scratch), which takes a hands-on, ground-up approach to constructing LLMs. While Raschka's book focuses on building models from scratch, this book centers on deploying, optimizing, and maintaining reliable, production-grade AI systems. Inside Building Reliable AI Systems you'll learn how to: Deploy LLMs into production Detect and reduce hallucinations Mitigate bias Optimize LLM performance and resource usage Advanced prompt engineering techniques Build intelligent agents and Retrieval-Augmented Generation Building Reliable AI Systems is a guide to putting LLMs into production in the real world. The book bridges the gap between theory and practice. You'll go beyond basics like prompting into advanced optimizations: intelligent agents, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), and in-depth solutions for mitigating hallucinations and bias. About the book Building Reliable AI Systems is a comprehensive guide to creating LLM-based apps that are faster and more accurate. It takes you from training to production and beyond into the ongoing maintenance of an LLM. In each chapter, you'll find in-depth code samples and hands-on projectsincluding building a RAG-powered chatbot and an agent created with LangChain. Deploying an LLM can be costly, so you'll love the performance optimization techniquesprompt optimization, model compression, and quantizationthat make your LLMs quicker and more efficient. Throughout, real-world case studies from e-commerce, healthcare, and legal work give concrete examples of how businesses have solved some of LLMs common problems. About the reader For data scientists or software engineers confident in Python and NLP. About the author Rush Shahani is a seasoned AI Engineer and CTO of Persana AI, a YCombinator-backed startup. At Persana, he leads the development of natural language processing and large language model systems that provide actionable insights to companies in order to drive revenue growth.
