Description



Book Synopsis



Harness the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) to build cutting-edge AI applications with Python and LangChain. This book provides a hands-on approach to understanding, implementing, and deploying LLM-powered solutions, equipping developers, data scientists, and AI enthusiasts with the tools to create real-world AI applications.

The journey begins with an introduction to LangChain, covering its core concepts, integration with Python, and essential components such as prompt engineering, memory management, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). As you progress, you'll explore advanced AI workflows, including multi-agent architectures, fine-tuning strategies, and optimization techniques to maximize LLM efficiency.

The book also takes a deep dive into practical applications of LLMs, guiding you through the development of intelligent chatbots, document retrieval systems, content generation pipelines, and AI-driven automation tools. You'll learn how to leverage APIs, integrate LLMs into web and mobile platforms, and optimize large-scale deployments while addressing key challenges such as inference latency, cost efficiency, and ethical considerations.

By the end of the book, you'll have gained a solid understanding of LLM architectures, hands-on experience with LangChain, and the expertise to build scalable AI applications that redefine human-computer interaction.

What You Will Learn

  • Understand the fundamentals of LangChain and Python for LLM development
  • Know advanced AI workflows, including fine-tuning and memory management Build AI-powered applications such as chatbots, retrieval systems, and automation tools Know deployment strategies and performance optimization for real-world use Use best practices for scalability, security, and responsible AI implementation Unlock the full potential of LLMs and take your AI development skills to the next level
