Most companies will agree that innovation is critical to sustaining growth and remaining competitive. Creating a culture of innovation is seen by most business leaders as the number one way to drive innovation for the business. However, for this culture to exist, employee engagement is imperative.

Premise: There has been enough written about startups and reasons why almost all of them fail. So, why write another post about this?

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Some people believe that ideas have the ability to persuade people. A good idea will succeed on its own. I used to share this thinking early in my career. But the first few brushes with reality convinced me otherwise. Yes, it is a fact that a small number of ideas seem to become famous on their own. There is also a rich literature on memes that shows that some ideas have the ability to propagate well.
