Model-Adjacent Products, Part 3: Quality Gates
Model outputs are hypotheses that need verification pipelines to catch errors before users do.
Model outputs are hypotheses that need verification pipelines to catch errors before users do.
Memory and hands for the model: retrieval that doesn’t hallucinate. Tools that don’t break production.
The physics of production AI: latency engineering that keeps humans in the loop. Token economics that don’t bankrupt you.
Before you build: the mental models for human-AI collaboration. Why L1 copilots need different infrastructure than L4 autonomous agents.
A 6-part series on building production AI systems. The foundation model is the CPU; your product is the computer you build around it.
