Overview

""The Generative AI Stack: Building Real-World Applications with LLMs and Diffusion Models"" is a comprehensive, hands-on, and full-stack guide designed to empower students, developers, and entrepreneurs to build real-world, production-ready applications using Large Language Models (LLMs) and Diffusion Models. This book bridges the gap between the theoretical understanding of AI and the practical engineering skills needed to create meaningful products. It takes you on a structured journey from the fundamental principles of Generative AI to the deployment and maintenance of sophisticated, scalable systems. Philosophy The core philosophy of this book is ""Theory in Service of Practice."" Every theoretical concept is introduced with a clear purpose: to provide the necessary foundation for the practical implementation that follows. We avoid abstract, non-essential theory and instead focus on the knowledge you need to make informed decisions as a developer-how to choose the right model, design an effective system architecture, and write efficient, functional code. We demystify the ""magic"" of AI and reframe it as a powerful, accessible, and versatile engineering discipline. Key Features 1. Full-Stack Coverage: We cover the entire lifecycle of a Generative AI application-from selecting foundation models and designing prompts to building the backend logic, creating a user interface, and deploying to the cloud. 2. Practical & Modern Tooling: Gain hands-on experience with the most relevant and popular tools in the industry, including OpenAI, Llama, Mistral, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Pinecone, FastAPI, Docker, and Hugging Face. 3. Advanced Concepts Made Simple: Complex but crucial topics like Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), fine-tuning with techniques like LoRA, and building autonomous agents are broken down into easy-to-understand, implementable steps. 4. Production-Ready Mindset: The book goes beyond simple prototypes, teaching you the best practices for building scalable APIs, containerizing your application, and deploying it using modern MLOps principles. To Whom This Book Is For This book is written for a broad audience, catering to both beginners and advanced learners: 1. B.Tech/M.Tech Students: Serves as a perfect textbook or supplementary resource for courses in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing, aligning with modern university syllabi. 2. Software Developers and Engineers: An essential guide for professionals who want to upskill and integrate Generative AI capabilities into their existing applications or build new ones from scratch. 3. AI/ML Practitioners: Provides a structured, application-oriented perspective that complements a deep theoretical background, focusing on the practical engineering aspects of the GenAI stack. 4. Entrepreneurs and Product Managers: Offers the technical understanding necessary to ideate, prototype, and lead the development of innovative AI-powered products.
