Current Project: Reading books about entrepreneurs and sharing what I learned from them

Mission: Create a library of wisdom from notable entrepreneurs that current entrepreneurs can leverage to increase their chances of success

What I struggled with:

• No material struggles last week

What I learned:

• I conducted demos to show the proof of concept (POC) that my engineer friend helped me build for potential engineering candidates. These meetings helped take the evaluation process to another level because the candidates could ask deep technical questions that showcased their thinking. Having my engineer friend on these calls was key so he could answer those questions and evaluate their thinking.
• Taking the POC to MVP will likely be a multistep process: (1) retrieval; i.e., reliably getting the information and chunks into the LLM; (2) model selection and parameter tuning; and (3) prompt engineering to achieve the desired minimum output quality threshold.

That’s what I learned and struggled with last week.
