AI Agents at Scale
Discover how to build flexible, scalable AI agents in Rails through modular components that adapt to the evolving AI landscape. Learn practical patterns for abstracting model providers, implementing flow-based architectures, building flexible tools, and managing prompts. We’ll explore how to handle divergent LLM provider features, plus key AI learnings: evaluation strategies for large applications, deciding between agents vs tools (A2A/MCP), and choosing between fine-tuning vs prompt engineering. Perfect for developers integrating AI or scaling existing implementations.
