Introduction: Multimodal AI processes and generates content across multiple modalities—text, images, audio, and video. This capability enables applications that were previously impossible: describing images, generating images from text, transcribing and understanding audio, and creating unified experiences that combine all these modalities. This guide covers the practical aspects of building multimodal applications: vision-language models for image […]

Internet of Things (IoT)–Introduction
The Internet of things (IoT) is the inter-networking of physical devices, vehicles (also referred to as “connected devices” and “smart devices”), buildings, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity which enable these objects to collect and exchange data. The IoT allows objects to be sensed or controlled remotely across existing […]

Introduction: Fine-tuning transforms general-purpose LLMs into specialized models that excel at your specific tasks. While prompting can get you far, fine-tuning unlocks capabilities that prompting alone cannot achieve: consistent output formats, domain-specific knowledge, reduced latency from shorter prompts, and behavior that would require extensive few-shot examples. This guide covers the practical aspects of LLM fine-tuning: […]
Read more →AI Agent Architectures: From ReAct to Multi-Agent Systems
Introduction: AI agents represent the next evolution of LLM applications—systems that can reason, plan, and take actions to accomplish complex tasks autonomously. Unlike simple chatbots that respond to single queries, agents maintain state, use tools, and iterate toward goals. This guide covers the architectural patterns that make agents effective: the ReAct framework for reasoning and […]
Read more →Embedding Models Deep Dive: From Sentence Transformers to Production Deployment
Introduction: Embeddings are the foundation of modern AI applications—they transform text, images, and other data into dense vectors that capture semantic meaning. Understanding how embedding models work, their strengths and limitations, and how to choose between them is essential for building effective search, RAG, and similarity systems. This guide covers the landscape of embedding models: […]
Read more →Prompt Optimization Strategies: From Structure to Automatic Refinement
Introduction: Prompt optimization is the systematic process of improving prompts to achieve better LLM outputs—higher accuracy, more consistent formatting, reduced latency, and lower costs. Unlike ad-hoc prompt engineering, optimization treats prompts as artifacts that can be measured, tested, and iteratively improved. This guide covers the techniques that make prompts more effective: structural patterns that improve […]
