Learn the Basics, Nail the Rest

­

You want to enhance your application with AI, but simply adding a chatbot is so last year. You need to use the AI to add real value, to improve your user experience, and to cut down on user support needs.


How do you do that? How do you write code that effectively uses AI, that integrates with your own environment, that doesn't cost a fortune in tokens, that doesn't go off into the weeds, and that doesn't end up insulting your users? And how to monitor it and evaluate its performance in the field?


Jay Wengrow is a master of making complex things approachable. His best-selling Common Sense Guide to Algorithms and Data Structures series has helped tens of thousands of developers. Now he turns his attention to AI. Not AI as a coding assistant, but AI as a resource you can use in your app.


To do that, Jay builds a story as only he can. Starting with embeddings, he looks at LLMs, and then LLM context. He shows you how to integrate tooling, add memory, and train your system using structured feedback. He then goes into evaluating and monitoring your code as it runs in the wild. 


And the cool thing is that this isn't just theory: we (and you) develop the code for everything he describes.


Using AI is easy. Using it well takes skill and experience. This book is a great way to build both.
