Ready to build applications using Generative AI? This practical book outlines the process necessary to design and build production grade AI services with a FastAPI web server that communicate seamlessly with databases, payment systems, and external APIs. You'll learn how to develop autonomous generative AI agents that stream outputs in real-time and interact with other models. Web developers, data scientists, and DevOps engineers will learn to implement end-to-end production-ready services that leverage Generative AI. You'll learn design patterns to manage software complexity, implement FastAPI lifespan for AI model integration, handle long-running generative tasks, perform content filtering, cache outputs, implement retrieval augmented generation (RAG) with a vector database, implement usage/cost monitoring and tracking, protect services with your own authentication and authorization mechanisms, and effectively control stream outputs directly from GenAI models.

Bringing a Deep-Learning project into production at scale is quite challenging. To successfully scale your project, a foundational understanding of full stack Deep Learning, including the knowledge that lies at the intersection of hardware, software, data, and algorithms, is required. This book illustrates complex concepts of full stack Deep Learning and reinforces them through hands-on exercises to arm you with tools and techniques to scale your project. A scaling effort is only beneficial when it's effective and efficient. To that end, this guide explains the intricate concepts and techniques that will help you scale effectively and efficiently. Deep Learning and scaling are correlated. Deep Learning is capable of scaling your objectives from single task to multitask, from one modality to multimodality, from one class to thousands of classes. Anything is possible, provided you have scalable hardware and a large volume of data and write software that can efficiently scale to utilize all the resources available to you. This book aims to help you develop a deeper knowledge of the Deep Learning stack—specifically, how Deep Learning interfaces with hardware, software, and data. It assumes that the reader already has a fundamental knowledge of Deep Learning concepts such as optimizers, learning objectives and loss functions, and model assembly and compilation, as well as some experience with model development. Familiarity with Python and PyTorch is also essential for the practical sections of the book.

If you're looking to build a production-ready AI application that enables users to "chat" with your company's private data, then you'll need to master LangChain—a premier AI development framework used by global corporations and startups like Zapier, Replit, Databricks, and more. This guide is an indispensable resource for developers who understand Python or jаvascript but are beginners eager to harness the power of AI. Authors Mayo Oshin and Nuno Campos demystify the use of LangChain through practical insights and in-depth tutorials. Starting with basic concepts, this book will show you step-by-step how to build a production-ready AI chatbot trained on your own data. Building LLM applications with or without LangChain requires the use of an LLM (read on for explanations for all these concepts). In this book we’ll be making use of the OpenAI API as the LLM provider we use in the code examples. One of the benefits of working with LangChain is you can follow all along all of these examples using either OpenAI or alternative commercial or open source LLM providers. We’ll call this out throughout the book.

This book demystifies the topic of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for readers of varying backgrounds. The content should enable many people to discuss and follow ongoing developments in an informed way, to draw conclusions for their own life and workplace and to acquire the necessary new knowledge. The book strives to provide basic knowledge that will objectify the discussions and relieve some of the creepiness of utopian films. It must also be understood that research results are a necessary condition for progress; they are not sufficient until they can be translated into practice embedded in programs. This difficult relationship between theory and practice has been known for a long time. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is considered to be a key technology by industry and scientists. AI means the possibility of a computer to solve problems that, done by human beings, requires human abilities such as thinking, learning, planning, and being creative. Computers are able to observe their environment and have the ability to reach a certain target. They can analyze situations that already have been met and adapt their solutions more and more, until to a level that is higher than the level of human beings. The book offers a basic knowledge about AI. After a definition of intelligence, it starts with an extensive tour of the history of AI. It considers both the software and the hardware aspects. An overview of the combination of Computer Science and mathematics. The presentation is very understandable, especially for non-scientists; they are a sound foundation for further application. The book serves as a generally understandable source of information and is very much recommended.

Whether you are a student seeking to enter the video game industry or a working professional aiming to refine your skills, this new edition gives you the basic skills of testing, demonstrates how game testing and testers fit into the game development process, and includes practical knowledge of tools, roles, responsibilities, and the metrics used to determine game quality and test progress. The reader is taken step-by-step through test design and other QA methods, using real game situations, and featuring interviews with veteran game developers. The book includes companion files for downloading with templates and tutorials for creating both combinatorial tables and test flow diagrams, which form the basis of a robust video game QA plan. Each chapter includes questions and exercises, making the book suitable for classroom use as well as a personal study or reference tool. Programmers make the video game work. They use their programming skills to turn the game design into something you can play on your computer or other device. Programmers may be involved in the porting of game code from one platform to another. Certain portions of the code should remain the same, whereas others must be changed to accommodate differences in the new platform. In all cases, the port must be freshly tested on the new platform to ensure that the player’s experience is the same as on the original platform.
