Large language models

  1. Night Shift
    Night Shift
    How freelancers and small studios hand real work to AI agents — and wake up to finished drafts
    Ailey

    You tried AI tools. They're fast. And you're still doing all the work — just in a chat window.

  2. Building a Native LLM Inference Engine

    Building a Native LLM Inference Engine Building a modern LLM inference engine from the ground up requires understanding every layer between model weights and generated tokens. This book provides a systems-level, implementation-focused path through that entire stack, from raw checkpoint formats and tensor memory layouts to native C++ execution, CUDA kernels, KV-cache management, scheduling, multi-GPU inference and production serving.

  3. Understanding Modern LLM Systems
    Understanding Modern LLM Systems
    A Field Guide to RAG, Agents, and Beyond
    koe

    For PMs, presales, and managers who work with AI but don’t write code: how RAG, agents, fine-tuning, compliance, and security actually fit together.

  4. Models Make Things Up
    Models Make Things Up
    Building LLM Features That Survive Production
    Alwy

    The model is one box. This book is about every other box: retries, contracts, evals, budgets, guardrails and agents for backend engineers shipping LLM features to production.

  5. Reasoning Models: First Understand, Then Build
    Reasoning Models: First Understand, Then Build
    A Beginner-Friendly Guide to How Reasoning AI Works Before You Learn to Build It
    T.N.K.TECH

    What if the next leap in AI is not just predicting the next word, but learning how to reason? Reasoning Models are changing how AI approaches complex problems, from mathematics and coding to multi-step decision-making. This beginner-friendly book explores the ideas behind this shift, including Chain-of-Thought (CoT), Test-Time Compute, Reinforcement Learning, and the connection between reasoning models, Generative AI, and AI Agents. Discover what makes reasoning AI different, why it matters, and how it may shape the future of artificial intelligence — without getting lost in complex mathematics or dense technical details.

  6. Mastering LLM Quantization: Architecture and Code

    Mastering LLM Quantization: Architecture and Code A Comprehensive Engineering Guide to Low-Precision AI, Quantized Inference, GPU Kernels, and Production Deployment Mastering LLM Quantization: Architecture and Code is a comprehensive technical resource for understanding, implementing, optimizing, and deploying quantized large language models. Combining mathematical foundations with practical engineering techniques, this title explores how reduced-precision representations can significantly improve memory efficiency, inference performance, and hardware utilization while preserving model accuracy.
