Going from an idea to an LLM application that is actually production-ready (i.e., high-quality, trustworthy, cost-effective) is difficult and time-consuming. In particular, LLM applications require iterative development driven by experimentation and evaluation, as well as navigating a large design space (with respect to model selection, prompting, retrieval augmentation, fine-tuning, and more). The only way to build a high-quality LLM application is to iterate and experiment your way to success, powered by data and rigorous evaluation; it is essential to then also observe and understand live usage to detect issues and fuel further improvement. In this talk, we cover the prototype-evaluate-improve-observe workflow that we’ve found to work well, and actionable insights as to how to apply this workflow in practice.
