Practical Applications of Generative AI: How to Sprinkle a Little AI in Your App

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Explains how to add small AI features using GPT-4, the Azure OpenAI client and a simple ASP.NET Core stack (EF Core, SignalR, React, Tailwind); shows tokenization, temperature and why raw LLMs hallucinate on math then fixes it with a dispatched arithmetic function that returns correct results. Demonstrates storing embeddings with Ada in Postgres/PGVector, using cosine similarity >0.8 to retrieve user facts, and chaining function calls to combine live data and LLM summaries.
