Identify key architectural principles for AI-driven systems
- [Instructor] Let's be honest. A lot of the architectural principles we rely on today aren't new, modularity, resilience, and observability. These have always been good practices. However, now that AI is generating code and driving parts of our systems, the way we apply these principles must evolve, the stakes are higher, and some of the assumptions we used to make no longer apply. Take modularity. It's always been smart design. But with AI in the picture, modularity becomes mission-critical. AI models and tools change fast. One week, you're using a prompt-based approach, and the next, you're integrating a tool using assistant that calls functions dynamically. To keep up, your system needs to support frequent change. You should be able to swap out logic or components without triggering a full-scale rewrite. That means building with small, reusable services and treating AI components like any other external dependency, powerful, unpredictable, and evolving quickly. Loose coupling and…
