Last week was a pretty hectic week.
After being somewhat demotivated the past couple weeks, I finally got inspired to push through and get the entire decision engine done.
I've had this concept brewing in my mind since Comigo, so it's great to actually put it into action.
The idea is that you start off in a "lobby," and every message while you're still in the lobby gets passed through a "decision engine" in the backend, which is essentially just a smaller LLM that gives you a simple output from the user's input. This is done behind the scenes. From that output from the decision engine, it then swaps out the prompt dynamically and gets you started on another process.
I had this value of which prompt to use be stored in the database, which was a simple and elegant enough solution. I also took the liberty in making sure the code was expandable for more and more prompts, so that's all taken care of.
I was pretty excited to get through it, though.
However, for some bad news, I ended up meeting with the CEO on Friday, and it turned into a somewhat heated argument regarding wages and such, and so I've since left. In that regard, my time at this stealth company is over, but luckily, I am starting a new contractual position hopefully soon with the company that my other coworker (whose duties were fulfilled and contract completed) referred me to, Invisible. I'll be working as a prompt engineer.
That being said, I also have an upcoming job at ICF, hopefully starting early September. That'll be exciting as well.
Either way, one door closes and another journey begins. I'll naturally keep updating this blog. Hopefully I will be more motivated since I'll be actually getting paid, and with a bigger company.
