Book Description:
Learn how to build, fine-tune, and deploy AI systems using DeepSeek, one of the most influential open-source large language models available today. This book guides you through real-world DeepSeek applications-from understanding its core architecture and training foundations to developing reasoning agents and deploying production-ready systems.
Starting with a concise synthesis of DeepSeek's research, breakthroughs, and open-source philosophy, you'll progress to hands-on projects including prompt engineering, workflow design, and rationale distillation. Through detailed case studies-ranging from document understanding to legal clause analysis-you'll see how to use DeepSeek in high-value GenAI scenarios.
You'll also learn to build sophisticated agent workflows and prepare data for fine-tuning. By the end of the book, you'll have the skills to integrate DeepSeek into local deployments, cloud CI/CD pipelines, and custom LLMOps environments.
Written by experts with deep knowledge of open-source LLMs and deployment ecosystems, this book is your comprehensive guide to DeepSeek's capabilities and implementation.
