AI as a Judge

Fast, cheap, and surprisingly useful. Also easy to misuse if you forget that the “judge” is just another model with its own prompt, biases, and sampling…

Perplexity is not your KPI

The metric that trains language models is useful, but it can lie to you the moment you start shipping LLM products, or start building AI agents.

The 2 Dials that decide everything with foundation models

Architecture chooses what the model can express. Scale chooses what it can *afford* to learn.

The real differentiator behind foundation models

Architectures usually get all of the headlines, but, it's the data (and how you sample it) which decides what the model actually learns.

The AI Engineering Stack

Building AI products is less about “the model” and more about decisions, feedback loops, and boring engineering that doesn’t break.
