In the Matrix, Morpheus offers Neo the choice of a blue pill or a red pill. Take one, and you remain as you are. Take the other, and the scales fall from your eyes. Those of us who watched the movie or have seen it on ubiquitous reruns, know what happens next. As an innovator, it would be awesome to pop into a completely different meta-world to understand the hidden workings of the metaverse I just left.

Sir. Karl Popper, in one of his lectures, elaborates about the presence of two types of systems – the clocks and the clouds. Clocks: At one end of the spectrum are Clocks. Clocks are those systems that can be taken apart to understand how they function and assembled back together and when done right, will continue to function the way they were designed.

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.
