Part 2Retrieval & RAG
Debugging a RAG System That Gives Wrong Answers
A stage-by-stage method for localizing RAG failures: build a replayable failure set, attribute each case to a stage, fix the biggest bucket, and gate on it.

Part 9Cost, Latency & Serving
Design an LLM router that sends each request to the cheapest good-enough model: rules, learned routers, cascades, threshold tuning and drift monitoring.
Part 14Evaluation & Reliability
Separate hallucination types, detect them with claim-level verification and uncertainty signals, and reduce them without making the model useless.
Part 15Evaluation & Reliability
Build support-bot evals from real failures: layered offline tests, calibrated judges, statistically sound release gates and a production flywheel.
Part 16Evaluation & Reliability
Treat an LLM judge like a measurement instrument: calibrate it against human labels, remove its known biases, and size your eval sets for real error bars.
