Notes on AI in production.

01

Agents are not features — they are systems

Going agentic isn’t about prompts. It’s about tools, state, constraints, logs, cost, and measurable quality.

  • tool-use
  • routing
  • guardrails
  • evals
  • observability
02

Multimodal AI: from content to operations

Text, docs, vision, and voice create value only when connected to workflows and governance.

  • doc intelligence
  • vision
  • voice
  • orchestration
03

RAG you can audit

Great RAG isn’t “retrieve and answer.” It’s knowledge versioning, internal references, and measurable quality.

  • hybrid search
  • rerank
  • grounding
  • citations
  • updates
04

LLMOps: the production checklist

Without evals, regression checks, and observability, systems silently degrade. Production requires discipline.

  • evals
  • monitoring
  • rollouts
  • feature flags
05

AI FinOps: cost per tenant, not per vibe

Real control means cost per client, per feature, per flow—plus limits and fallback design.

  • budgets
  • metering
  • routing
  • caching
06

Governance by design: audit trails for AI

Privacy and compliance aren’t paperwork. They’re architecture: logs, minimization, retention, and rationale.

  • PII
  • retention
  • access control
  • auditability
