Books

On writing better software, understanding AI, and growing as an engineer. A small shelf, with notes from my reading.

  • AI Engineering

    Chip Huyen

    This felt like the practical guide I wanted for building with LLMs. I appreciated how much attention it gives to the decisions around the model, not just the model itself.

  • The Age of A.I.

    Henry Kissinger, Eric Schmidt & Daniel Huttenlocher

    A dense read, but worth the effort. It got me thinking beyond what AI can do and about how it changes the way we understand the world and make decisions.

  • The Effective Engineer

    Edmond Lau

    The idea that stayed with me is choosing where my effort goes. Being busy is easy; figuring out which work will make a lasting difference is harder.
