Before Full Agentic RAG: Know How You Decide, and the Parsing Methods You Pick From
Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol.1 #5nonies] - Nature, plan, execute, synthesize: closing brick 1 with a dispatcher that reads each PDF’s nature and picks the method that fits, fitz, Docling, PaddleOCR, EasyOCR, MinerU or Surya, then folds the outputs into one corpus

New Free eBook: Understanding Agentic AI, an Executive Briefing
Written for CEOs, CTOs, CIOs, and technology executives, our new free ebook "Understanding Agentic AI: An Executive Briefing" walks through the components every real agentic system is built from.
Building an Agent-Ready Data Warehouse: What Traditional Architectures Do Wrong
Giving an AI agent access to a data warehouse doesn't automatically make it agent-ready. The real challenge lies in teaching the agent what the data means and when it's reliable enough to use.

Building Trustworthy Snowflake AI Agents with Semantic Governance
This year, many data teams have added AI agents to their roadmaps. The excitement is real: an agent that turns a two-day analysis into a two-minute conversation can change how analysts and business teams work together. But agents are only as reliable as the data foundation beneath them. Point them a...

Small Language Models with Hugging Face transformers Library + smolLM3
Running a 70B model in production is expensive, and for many tasks, unnecessary. If you're building a focused pipeline, a well-trained 3B model will match or beat the 70B on your specific task at a fraction of the cost.
Learn how to use generative AI at work, build RAG and agentic apps, fine-tune models, work with the Hugging Face ecosystem, and prototype AI products with hands-on resources.
