Why this session

You already use ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot. But there is a large gap between using an AI tool and engineering an AI-powered product. Most developers can call an LLM API. Far fewer can say where AI belongs in a product, when RAG beats a database query, when an agent is the wrong answer, or what it costs to run any of it reliably.

This is a 90-minute practical session on how modern AI applications are actually built, with a live engineering demonstration rather than slides.

In 90 minutes

What we'll cover

What AI Product Engineering actually means, and why it differs from using AI tools
How modern AI applications are built: user → app → API → AI layer → LLM + data + tools
LLM vs RAG vs workflows vs tool calling vs agents — and when to use each
The skills IT professionals actually need to make the transition
A live engineering demonstration of an AI application architecture
Common mistakes developers make when they first enter AI

Inside the labs

The kind of demo you'll see live

Real recordings from our labs: running AI apps, code and measured results.

RAG lab

A documentation assistant, built end to end

A lab project: FastAPI backend, Chroma vector store and Llama 3 via Groq, answering questions about LangChain documentation.

RAGFastAPIChromaLlama 3
RAG evaluation lab

Measuring answer quality, not guessing

A lab notebook: a local FAISS knowledge base, a RAG pipeline on Groq LLMs, and RAGAS metrics to evaluate the answers. Shown at 2.5× speed.

FAQ

Before you register

Is the webinar really free?

Yes. Registration is free and there is no obligation to buy anything.

Do I need previous AI experience?

No. If you work in IT you will get the most out of it, but no AI or ML background is needed.

Is this suitable for Java developers?

Yes. The architecture and concepts apply across technology stacks.

Will there be a live demo?

Yes, a practical engineering demonstration — not a slide walkthrough.

Can I ask questions?

Yes, there is a live Q&A section at the end.
