Book Description

Rapid advances in large language models (LLMs) have made new kinds of AI applications, known as agents, possible. Written by a veteran of web development, Principles of Building AI Agents focuses on the substance without hype or buzzwords. This book walks through:

  • The key building blocks of agents: providers, models, prompts, tools, memory
  • How to break down complex tasks with agentic workflows
  • Giving agents access to knowledge bases with RAG (retrieval-augmented generation)
  • Agent observability with tracing and evals
