Building and shipping AI products

Turn prototypes into reliable products.

📖 Key ideas

  1. Start with a narrow, valuable use case.
  2. Prototype fast with an API, then add RAG/tools as needed.
  3. Design UX for uncertainty: show sources, allow edits, feedback buttons.
  4. Control cost with caching, smaller models and limits.
  5. Iterate with user feedback and evals.
💡 Real-life example: Shipping an AI product is opening a small café first, perfecting the menu before opening a chain.
