DataTalks.Club's book of the week is Manning's 'Designing AI Systems' by Suhas Suresha and Dewang Sultania. The book argues AI applications need more than a model connection — memory, company knowledge, safe tool use, rules, and reliable operations. It guides readers through building a shared AI platform with complete Python code per chapter, plus production skills like cost management, request routing, safety controls, and evaluation. Readers can ask the authors questions in Slack through Thursday, with free copies given away Friday.
