Agentic

As agentic systems become increasingly central to modern software development, many engineers are looking to build practical skills but don’t know where to start. This guide provides a short list of pre-reading/watching and hands-on training resources to help you get started with developing with AI agents. The focus is on practical implementation for tools and methods you’re likely to use in the workplace, so you can quickly gain experience and confidence in building AI powered and agentic systems. ...

Don’t ask yourself “What if my high performing engineers spent $2k/month on agentic coding?” …ask yourself why they (and others) aren’t - and what opportunities they’re missing as a result. ...

Prompt caching is a feature that Anthropic first offered on their API in 2024. It adds a cache for the tokens used Why it matters Without prompt caching every token in and out of the API must be processed and paid for in full. This is bad for your wallet, bad for the LLM hosting providers bottom line and bad for the environment. This is especially important when it comes to Agentic coding, where there are a lot of tokens in/out and important - a lot of token reuse, which makes it a perfect use case for prompt caching. ...
