Introduction to the Modern AI Stack: LLM, RAG, Agents, MCP, RPA, and Workflow
Jerome Stack
This is a lexicon on AI. If you're a technical person it's the next logical step after prompt engineering: From "How do I use AI?" to "How do I build software with AI?". Modern AI systems are much more than an LLM - they're composed of layers such as orchestration, retrieval, vector databases, evaluation, observability, and application logic. This book talks about these different layers. Since AI is moving forward at breakneck speed and chances are high you haven't really grasped all the breakthroughs (especially in the past 4 years since the launch of ChatGPT), this book will clarify all necessary terms and give the much-needed details to you. I recommend it to AI leaders, developers, students, consultants, and entrepreneurs. Level up your vocabulary in AI architecture!
