LLM Application Experience Sharing Session

I'm excited to share some great news with all of you who have been learning and growing together through my AI agent development course. My first book, which compiles the in-depth content and practical essentials that couldn't be fully covered in the lectures, has finally been published. This book focuses on addressing the most frequently asked questions from the classroom and solving real-world challenges.

As I've always emphasized in my lectures, the key to agent services is not simply 'implementing' features, but 'proving' their performance.

During the writing process, as I experienced rapid technological changes such as EXAONE 3.0 being updated to 3.5 and changes in the Ollama support environment, I became convinced once again. What matters is not 'trends' but 'fundamentals'. That's why the final chapter of this book focuses intensively on the [Evaluation] part, which I consider most important.

For those who want to manage agent performance with objective metrics rather than subjective feelings, this book will serve as an excellent guide.

I notice that the `` tags are empty - there is no Korean text between them to translate. The surrounding context shows: - Before: Text about focusing on objective indicators rather than subjective feelings for managing agent performance - After: Text about a 'Next Step' preview for course students, discussing theoretical foundations and core principles of evaluation covered in a book However, since there is no actual content between the `` tags to translate, I cannot provide a translation. Please provide the Korean text you'd like translated.

🎓 'Next Step' Preview for Course Students

The book solidly covers the theoretical foundation and core principles of evaluation. However, you may be curious about how to automate and operationalize this in practice. To address this, we are separately preparing a course that includes the following advanced content.

• Establishing evaluation policies using LangSmith

• Writing and optimizing Evaluators in production environments and their practical applications

• Sustainable LLM Application Improvement Process

After building a solid theoretical foundation through the book, I recommend experiencing 'the completion of evaluation' through the hands-on lectures that follow.

Hello, I'm Kang Byeong-jin.

Hello, I recently had a great opportunity to participate in And Studio's 'Ace Report' to share my career story.

I'm facing a new beginning, but rather than this video covering the know-how of transitioning to big tech companies, it has become a space where I calmly share the thoughts I've pondered and experienced while approaching work over the years.

Looking back, I think my career has been closer to failure than success. There were experiences of starting and closing businesses that aren't recorded on LinkedIn, and moments of rejection that far outnumbered acceptances. However, I believe I am who I am today because of the learning and lessons I gained through that process.

While the title 'Work Expert' is a bit embarrassing, I hope my story of constantly challenging myself and learning from those experiences can reach and help those who have similar concerns.

Thank you for taking the time to watch, and it would be a great help if you could share your thoughts about the video.

Thank you to all the students taking this course, and if you encounter any parts where the explanation is insufficient, parts that are difficult to understand, or difficulties you face when applying this to your actual work, please post them as questions and I will respond as quickly as possible.

Thank you

Best regards, Kang Byeongjin
