Chapter 9 — Managing the Attention Budget

Ninth post of the LLM Primer IV walkthrough. Context rot, the lost-in-the-middle cliff, tool-loadout rot, and the three architectural answers — MCP, RAG, fine-tuning — to the question of where a model's missing knowledge actually belongs.

Chapter 6 — Fundamental Orchestration Strategies

Sixth post of the LLM Primer IV walkthrough. The two foundational orchestration shapes — sequential pipelines and concurrent scatter-gather — and the prior question every team should ask: is a multi-agent system the right answer at all?

Chapter 1 — The AI Integration Crisis and the Rise of Agentic Architecture

First post of the LLM Primer IV walkthrough. Why monolithic agents fray as system prompts grow, the N times M integration problem hiding underneath, and the move from prompt engineering to context engineering that MCP was built to enable.

Chapter 9 — The RAG Evaluation Triad

Ninth post of the LLM Primer III walkthrough. A RAG system can fail in three different places and the failures look identical from the outside — the Evaluation Triad of Context Relevance, Groundedness, and Answer Relevance is the small vocabulary that prevents fixing one bug while measuring another.

Chapter 8 — Data Anonymization in the RAG Pipeline

Eighth post of the LLM Primer III walkthrough. Pre-generation versus post-generation anonymisation, the three technique families — masking, synthetic replacement, differential privacy — and the utility-privacy tradeoff that determines whether the system remains useful at all.

Chapter 9 — Training at Scale

Ninth post of the LLM Primer II walkthrough. How data preprocessing quietly shapes everything that follows, the mathematics of mini-batch learning and parallelism, and the surprisingly subtle question of how to keep a training run numerically stable across thousands of GPUs.

Chapter 12 — Building Your Own LLM System: From Datasets to Production

Chapter 12 of the LLM Primer I series. The final chapter. What it actually takes to build an LLM-powered system end to end — dataset licensing, training pipelines, evaluation frameworks, the integrated application stack, and the case-study patterns that distinguish successful deployments from failed pilots.
