Introduction to LLM
This page provides an easy-to-understand guide on LLMs (Large Language Models) from basics to applications for AI enthusiasts.
Chapter 7 — Hallucinations and Reliability
Seventh post of the LLM Primer VII walkthrough. Why hallucinations occur, the confidence-vs-correctness gap, and hybrid verification architectures — anchored by the Moffatt v Air Canada and Mata v Avianca cases.

Chapter 3 — Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Third post of the LLM Primer V walkthrough. The RAG pipeline end to end — chunking, hybrid retrieval, query transformation, multimodal, and text-to-SQL — and where RAG fits versus fine-tuning and long context.

Chapter 8 — Architectural Deployment Layouts
Eighth post of the LLM Primer IV walkthrough. The three deployment layouts that have emerged in the MCP ecosystem — reusable agent, strict purity, hybrid — and the four binding constraints that determine which one fits which project.

Chapter 5 — Architecting the Retrieval Pipeline
Fifth post of the LLM Primer III walkthrough. Why a single vector search is not a pipeline — hybrid retrieval, reciprocal rank fusion, cross-encoder reranking, and query-side rewriting and HyDE — assembled into the production architecture that mature RAG systems converge on.

Chapter 7 — Beyond Next-Token Prediction: Embeddings, Retrieval, and Multimodality
Chapter 7 of the LLM Primer I series. The capabilities that turn a next-token predictor into something much more — embeddings, semantic search, retrieval-augmented generation, and the move into multimodal inputs. How RAG actually keeps an LLM grounded in real documents instead of confabulating.
