Harnessing AI APIs for Safer, Accurate, & Reliable Applications // MLOps Podcast #252 with Ron Heichman, Machine Learning Engineer at SentinelOne.

// Abstract
Integrating AI APIs effectively is pivotal for building applications that leverage LLMs, especially given the inherent issues with accuracy, reliability, and safety that LLMs often exhibit. I aim to share practical strategies and experiences for using AI APIs in production settings, detailing how to adapt these APIs to specific use cases, mitigate potential risks, and enhance performance. The focus will be testing, measuring, and improving quality for RAG or knowledge workers utilizing AI APIs.
