AI agents are rapidly changing how financial systems analyze information, make decisions, and automate complex workflows. While many resources explain agentic AI concepts at a high level, few show how to design and deploy AI agents that work reliably in real financial environments. This book fills that gap. You will start by learning what AI agents are, how they differ from non-agentic systems, and when agentic architectures are the right choice. Next, explore core design patterns, memory management strategies, AI agents frameworks , and reasoning paradigms such as ReAct, reflection, self-consistency, LATS , and multi-agent collaboration across various architectural styles. You will apply these concepts through practical Python labs and deep-dive finance use cases, including fundamental analysis, research, trading, insurance, and compliance. Next, you will learn how to evaluate agent behavior, implement guardrails, and add tracing and observability to ensure safe and reliable operation. Finally, focus on operationalization and Responsible AI, covering cost and latency trade-offs, scaling strategies, human-in-the-loop systems, and ethical considerations required in regulated financial settings. By the end, you’ll know how to design, evaluate, and deploy finance AI agents that deliver real business value.

In the fast-paced world of AI, developers are constantly seeking efficient ways to integrate AI capabilities into their apps. Microsoft Semantic Kernel simplifies this process by using the GenAI features from Microsoft and OpenAI.Written by Lucas A. Meyer, a Principal Research Scientist in Microsoft’s AI for Good Lab, this book helps you get hands on with Semantic Kernel. It begins by introducing you to different generative AI services such as GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, demonstrating their integration with Semantic Kernel. You’ll then learn to craft prompt templates for reuse across various AI services and variables. Next, you’ll learn how to add functionality to Semantic Kernel by creating your own plugins. The second part of the book shows you how to combine multiple plugins to execute complex actions, and how to let Semantic Kernel use its own AI to solve complex problems by calling plugins, including the ones made by you. The book concludes by teaching you how to use vector databases to expand the memory of your AI services and how to help AI remember the context of earlier requests. You’ll also be guided through several real-world examples of applications, such as RAG and custom GPT agents.By the end of this book, you'll have gained the knowledge you need to start using Semantic Kernel to add AI capabilities to your applications.

Learn how to build GenAI applications using proven software engineering patterns instead of rapidly changing frameworks. This book helps engineers build secure, scalable agentic systems with familiar tools and practical, engineer-to-engineer architectural guidance.You will connect GenAI concepts such as agentic workflows, embeddings, and vector databases to enterprise patterns, including components, adapters, and microarchitectures. Established GoF and enterprise design patterns help explain agentic behavior and system design, enabling you to reason about architecture rather than memorize tools. The book also shows you how to generate multi-agent and GenAI patterns as RabbitMQ configurations for scalable orchestration and communication.Using language-agnostic examples and widely used messaging, orchestration, and data technologies, you will build production-ready systems that integrate with existing infrastructure without unnecessary complexity. You will also use our Topologos prompt to build, modify, and test deploy-ready multi-agent systems quickly while improving robustness and maintainability.By the end of this book, you will be able to design reliable GenAI systems, make informed architectural decisions, and adapt confidently as tools and frameworks evolve.*Email sign-up and proof of purchase required
