Pull a model onto a machine you own, shape it with a Modelfile, fine-tune your own adapter, and build a chat app that calls tools and talks to an MCP server, all running on your own hardware. By the end, you'll know exactly where owning your AI beats renting it, and where it doesn't.
Most enterprises can deliver fast, but few can adapt at scale.The Cybernetic Enterprise introduces a unifying operating model that embeds AI, feedback loops, and platform thinking into the DNA of your organization. Learn how to build a system that senses change, learns continuously, and transforms disruption into strategic advantage.
Gain a good sense of Git’s mechanics. Particularly useful when less obvious situations occur. Bearing the proper abstractions in mind, you know why and what should be done; It is easier then, to find the answer to how to do it. paperback edition available on Amazon
STOP building fragile AI wrappers. START designing resilient AI systems. Lots of companies are trying to make their small AI experiments into big products, but they don't have a good plan. Engineers need a practical guide to build these new AI systems the right way - so they can handle scale, be reliable, and won't cost too much. This book is that guide. It explains how to design systems that use AI models. This book breaks down the architecture of real AI applications, like an AI-powered code editor or a smart learning app. It gives you a deep, practical look at the real-world challenges and solutions for building these systems. It discusses system design concepts for systems that use LLMs.
