商品描述
This book is a hands-on guide designed to help readers understand, build, and deploy powerful AI solutions using Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), agentic systems, and intelligent chatbots.
Starting with the fundamentals--LLM architecture, tokenization, APIs, and fine-tuning--the book gradually builds toward complex, integrated systems. Readers will learn to implement RAG pipelines using vector databases like FAISS and Pinecone, develop autonomous AI agents that complete multi-step tasks, and create real-world chatbots that understand and adapt to user needs. The approach is project-driven: each chapter includes visual explanations, step-by-step code walkthroughs, and deployment-ready examples. From building a personal assistant that searches your notes to creating a scheduling agent, every project reinforces both technical skills and applied understanding. It emphasizes clarity, inclusivity, and real-world relevance--helping readers move confidently from basic understanding to complex applications.
Whether you're exploring Agentic AI or looking to build production-ready systems, this book gives you the tools to turn curiosity into capability--and innovation into impact.
What you will learn:
- Build intelligent chatbots and tools using open-source LLMs like GPT, LLaMA, and Mistral with guided deployment steps.
- Combine LLMs with vector databases like FAISS and Pinecone to create accurate, context-aware AI systems.
- Design AI agents capable of planning and executing complex workflows for automation and decision-making.
- Apply prompt engineering, memory, and multimodal tools to build real-world AI apps for your project portfolio.
Who this book is for:
Machine Learning engineers, data scientists, and AI professionals interested in learning how to build real-world AI systems using Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), Agentic AI, and intelligent chatbots.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書是一本實用指南,旨在幫助讀者理解、構建和部署強大的人工智慧解決方案,使用大型語言模型(Large Language Models, LLMs)、檢索增強生成(Retrieval-Augmented Generation, RAG)、代理系統(agentic systems)和智能聊天機器人(intelligent chatbots)。
從基礎知識開始——LLM架構、標記化(tokenization)、API和微調(fine-tuning)——本書逐步構建到複雜的集成系統。讀者將學會使用向量數據庫(vector databases)如FAISS和Pinecone實現RAG管道,開發能夠完成多步任務的自主AI代理,並創建能理解和適應用戶需求的現實世界聊天機器人。這種方法以項目為驅動:每一章都包括視覺解釋、逐步的代碼演示和可部署的範例。從構建一個搜索您筆記的個人助理到創建一個排程代理,每個項目都強化了技術技能和應用理解。它強調清晰性、包容性和現實世界的相關性——幫助讀者自信地從基本理解過渡到複雜應用。
無論您是在探索代理AI還是希望構建生產就緒的系統,這本書都為您提供了將好奇心轉化為能力——並將創新轉化為影響的工具。
您將學到的內容:
- 使用開源LLM如GPT、LLaMA和Mistral構建智能聊天機器人和工具,並提供指導的部署步驟。
- 將LLM與向量數據庫如FAISS和Pinecone結合,創建準確且具上下文感知的AI系統。
- 設計能夠規劃和執行複雜工作流程的AI代理,以實現自動化和決策。
- 應用提示工程(prompt engineering)、記憶和多模態工具,為您的項目組合構建現實世界的AI應用。
本書適合對象:
機器學習工程師、數據科學家和AI專業人士,對學習如何使用大型語言模型(LLMs)、檢索增強生成(RAG)、代理AI和智能聊天機器人構建現實世界的AI系統感興趣。
