What Is an AI Stack? LLMs, RAG, & AI Hardware

Decoding the AI Stack: From Mystery to Mastery
Ever feel like the world of AI is moving so fast that you’re just trying to keep your head above water? You hear terms like LLMs, RAG, and Vector Databases thrown around, but they often feel like scattered puzzle pieces that don’t quite fit together.
The truth is, without understanding how these components interact, building a reliable AI system feels like a guessing game. If you don’t master the “stack,” you risk creating workflows that are inefficient, costly, or—even worse—completely unreliable.
That’s exactly where Lauren McHugh Olende comes in. In our latest video, she breaks down the “AI Stack” in a way that actually makes sense for your daily work.
She explores how LLMs, orchestration layers, and specialized AI hardware work in harmony to power the real-world systems we use every day. It’s not just about the “brain” of the AI; it’s about the entire nervous system that makes it functional.
By the end of this video, you’ll stop seeing AI as a “black box” and start seeing it as a structured, manageable workflow. You’ll gain the clarity needed to build smarter, more robust solutions that actually solve problems.
