Name: AI Projects
Availability: InStock

Practical AI work from a backend engineer's point of view: what it takes to put a model behind an API and ship it, rather than what it takes to train one.

The projects here treat a model as one more unreliable, expensive, slow dependency, which is exactly what it is once it reaches production.

What you build

Working applications with AI capabilities built in.

What you learn

Call a model from application code and handle what comes back
Design around latency, cost and non-deterministic output
Build features on top of a model rather than demos
