Production AI
Turn a working demo into a system people can rely on.
the point
Production AI is mostly product engineering: reliability, cost, latency, observability, feedback, and iteration.
start here
go deeper
understanding check
You should be able to…
- identify the failures users actually feel
- track cost, latency, quality, and feedback
- design fallbacks for model and retrieval failures
- know what must be monitored after launch
prove it by building
Ship a small AI product slice
advanced · next.js, model API, database, auth provider, logging
make
a deployed AI feature with auth, usage limits, feedback capture, and basic observability
definition of done
include a demo link, failure-mode notes, and one iteration driven by feedback or evals
