It’s Wednesday night. You’re fast asleep aboard the USS Enterprise Star Trek. Suddenly, you wake to an urgent announcement and rush to the bridge of the starship. Captain James T. Kirk is activating warp drive and you see the iconic blurred streaks of light as the spaceship reaches warp speed. Within seconds, you are traveling faster than the speed of light to reach a Klingon war in the Alpha Quadrant–arriving in minutes versus years.

While data platforms, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and programming platforms have evolved to leverage big data and streaming data, the front-end user experience has not kept up. Holding onto old BI technology while everything else moves forward is holding back organizations. Traditional Business Intelligence (BI) aren’t built for modern data platforms and don’t work on modern architectures.

With all of the work right now going into removing complexity from the Rails framework and making the documentation consistent, clear, and up-to-date, it was time to tackle the design of the guides and make them equally modern, simple, and fresh.

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.
