Introduction: Not every query needs GPT-4. Routing simple questions to cheaper, faster models while reserving expensive models for complex tasks can cut costs by 70% or more without sacrificing quality. Smart LLM routing is the difference between a $10,000/month AI bill and a $3,000 one. This guide covers implementing intelligent model selection: classifying query complexity, […]

Introduction: Production LLM applications often benefit from using multiple models—routing simple queries to cheaper models, using specialized models for specific tasks, and falling back to alternatives when primary models fail. Multi-model orchestration enables cost optimization, improved reliability, and access to each model’s unique strengths. This guide covers practical orchestration patterns: model routing based on query […]

Introduction: LLM API calls are expensive and slow. A single GPT-4 request can cost cents and take seconds—multiply that by thousands of users asking similar questions, and costs spiral quickly. Semantic caching solves this by recognizing that “What’s the weather in NYC?” and “Tell me NYC weather” are essentially the same query. Instead of exact […]

Introduction: Chatbots without memory feel robotic—they forget your name, repeat questions, and lose context mid-conversation. Production chatbots need sophisticated memory systems: short-term memory for the current conversation, long-term memory for user preferences and history, and summary memory to compress long interactions. This guide covers implementing these memory patterns: conversation buffers, vector-based retrieval, automatic summarization, and […]

Introduction: Google’s Gemini API represents a significant leap in multimodal AI capabilities. Launched in December 2023, Gemini models are natively multimodal, trained from the ground up to understand and generate text, images, audio, and video. With context windows up to 2 million tokens and native Google Search grounding, Gemini offers unique capabilities for building sophisticated […]

Introduction: Prompt engineering is both art and science—small changes in wording can dramatically affect LLM output quality. Systematic prompt optimization goes beyond trial and error to find prompts that consistently perform well. This guide covers proven optimization techniques: few-shot learning with carefully selected examples, chain-of-thought prompting for complex reasoning, structured output formatting, prompt compression for […]
