Description

David Ping, Head of GenAI and ML Solution Architecture for global industries at AWS, provides expert insights and practical examples to help you become a proficient ML solutions architect, linking technical architecture to business-related skills. You'll learn about ML algorithms, cloud infrastructure, system design, MLOps , and how to apply ML to solve real-world business problems. David explains the generative AI project lifecycle and examines Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), an effective architecture pattern for generative AI applications. You’ll also learn about open-source technologies, such as Kubernetes/Kubeflow, for building a data science environment and ML pipelines before building an enterprise ML architecture using AWS. As well as ML risk management and the different stages of AI/ML adoption, the biggest new addition to the handbook is the deep exploration of generative AI. By the end of this book , you’ll have gained a comprehensive understanding of AI/ML across all key aspects, including business use cases, data science, real-world solution architecture, risk management, and governance. You’ll possess the skills to design and construct ML solutions that effectively cater to common use cases and follow established ML architecture patterns, enabling you to excel as a true professional in the field.

What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

As a university CISO, the top concerns regarding AI/ML evolved around data security, ethical use, and governance. • Ensuring the security of data used by AI/ML systems is paramount, as these technologies can process vast amounts of sensitive information. The CISO must ensure that data privacy regulations are adhered to and that the AI/ML systems are protected against cyber threats. • The ethical use of AI/ML is a significant concern. This includes issues such as the potential for bias in AI-generated content and the need for transparency in how AI models are trained and deployed. • Governance of AI/ML involves establishing policies and frameworks that dictate how AI/ML technologies are utilized within the university. This includes setting up clear guidelines for responsible AI use, monitoring compliance, and managing the risks associated with these powerful tools.This book clearly outlines and provide guidelines to help addresses the concerns I have as a university CISO

I've just finished reading this book and what a great read and reference book it is. It is packed with essential ideas and information for the machine learning lifecycle. With my AWS background, it felt incredibly familiar yet practical, covering all aspects of the machine learning lifecycle.Given all the GenAI hype, I particularly enjoyed Chapter 15, "Navigating the Generative AI Project Lifecycle"; David touches on the foundations of generative AI and covers details around generative AI platforms, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) architecture, as well as practical applications across industries.From foundational ML algorithms to advanced tools and architectures, this book caters to readers at various expertise levels in a readable manner. He covers real-life applications and best practices: sections on robust ML infrastructure, optimisation methods, and AWS frameworks like WAF and CAF provide actionable insights for real-world applications.► Ideal AudienceThis book is an excellent addition for machine learning practitioners, solutions architects, data scientists/engineers implementing advanced AI, and tech leaders/decision-makers seeking strategic implications of ML and AI for their organisations.
