Large language models

  1. Vector Search from First Principles
    Vector Search from First Principles
    SIMD, Quantization, and Billion-Scale Retrieval
    Steve Publications

    Most vector search books start with the database. This one starts with the machine. Build a search engine from scratch, then push it from brute force to billion-scale retrieval with SIMD, HNSW, quantization and distributed systems. By the end, vector search won't be a black box. It'll be something you know how to build, tune and scale.

  2. Securing AI-Generated Code
    Securing AI-Generated Code
    A Practical Guide to Safely Developing with AI-Assisted Software
    Steve Publications

    AI can write code in seconds, but can you trust what it creates? Securing AI-Generated Code shows you how to uncover hidden vulnerabilities, stop risky dependencies, secure AI coding agents and build safer development pipelines. A practical guide for teams that want the speed of AI without putting security on the line.

  3. Building Low-Latency LLM Infrastructure
    Building Low-Latency LLM Infrastructure
    From Fundamentals to Production-Grade Systems
    Steve Publications

    Building fast LLM systems takes more than a powerful GPU. This book shows you what actually happens between prompt and response, where latency hides and how to fix it. Work from kernels and inference engines to distributed clusters, benchmarking and production reliability, with practical guidance for building systems that stay fast under real-world load.

  4. Behavior-Driven Development for AI Agents
    Behavior-Driven Development for AI Agents
    A Complete Guide to Specification-First Software Engineering with Autonomous Coding Systems
    Steve Publications

    AI coding agents can move fast, but speed without clear intent creates expensive mistakes. This practical guide shows how Behavior-Driven Development turns specifications into a reliable contract between you and autonomous coding systems, helping agents build the right thing, catch problems earlier and produce software you can trust.

  5. SEEKER JAMES PUBLISHING | BIBLIOTHECA SEEKERISMS Vol. 1
    SEEKER JAMES PUBLISHING | BIBLIOTHECA SEEKERISMS Vol. 1
    The Production Codex Volume 1: Technical Narrative Data, Comprehensive Framework Ledger, Bleach Protocol Baseline, System Architecture, Sovereign Source Indexing
    Seeker James

    The definitive production architecture transmission from Seeker James. The semantic frequencies are locked, the structural codes are captured, and the technical metadata is anchored under ABN 52 464 760 231. This official codex spans 77 pages, stripping away mainstream corporate industry polish to reveal a tight, high-impact collection of raw technical truth.

  6. The Agentic Junior
    The Agentic Junior
    Kevin Demeulenaere

    They say AI is coming for junior developers first. This is a junior's honest case for the opposite: how driving agents well, on real legacy code, makes you level up faster instead of getting left behind. The failures are left in.

  7. ChatGPT: The Complete Guide
    ChatGPT: The Complete Guide
    From First Message to Advanced Mastery: A Practical Handbook for Everyday Use
    Steve Publications

    ChatGPT can save you time, sharpen your ideas and change the way you work, but only if you know how to use it well. This practical guide takes you from your first prompt to advanced techniques, with real-world examples for writing, research, coding, business and creativity.

  15. What Your AI Cannot Prove
    What Your AI Cannot Prove
    Governing AI in Regulated Industries
    KnowlytiX

    Your pilot went well. That was never the question. In a regulated industry, an AI system is acceptable only when it can prove what it did: which source it used, what stopped it acting, why it decided as it did eleven months ago. A field guide for the executives who have to sign.
