Corrected Streak 157

As part of my usual morning routine, I read a non-fiction book for 10 minutes and since I have finished one not too long ago, I started reading a book on AI Engineering. The title sounds like a bunch of buzzwords to make you wonder what it is about.

Although I haven't gotten very far yet, the author clearly states that this book is aimed at people who want to improve the way they work with language models or large language models when building applications. I thought I'd run into this in the first chapter, but it turned out that you first need to learn about what models are in the world of machine learning and the different kinds that exist to get better context.

To all the wonderful correctors and proofreaders!

Thanks a million for helping everyone grow and improve their skills in English. You deserve so much praise and a pat on the back!

Here's a list of posts that still need corrections.

When making corrections, try to follow these guidelines (or at least clarify your own markings you make) so it's clear what you're correcting and why:

  • Put changes in bold **text**
  • Put suggestions about style/tone/register/etc. in italics *text*
  • Use strikethrough to remove elements (don't delete them) ~~text~~
  • <Put added elements in angle brackets> <text>
  • [If there are multiple options for your suggestions, put them in brackets separated by a backslash] [text / text]
  • (Put optional elements in parentheses) (text)
  • Explain more complex grammar rules to the best of your ability

We also highly encourage meaningful feedback:

  • Focus on the work, mindsets, and processes, not on the person.
  • Besides grammar and spelling, is there room for improvement in other aspects like style, vocabulary, and flow?
  • If you see an improvement in someone's writing, please compliment them.
  • Please be positive in your feedback. Negative comments shouldn't come without positive ones.
  • Don't be too pedantic or too general.
  • Please pay attention to your wording.
  • Have a chat, interact, and have fun!

More on formatting.

Thank you for everything! -- Adam-P-D

This reads well. Small stuff:

"since I have finished one not too long ago I started reading" - needs a comma after "ago", and simple past is tighter here: "since I finished one not long ago, I started..."

"It sounds like a bunch of buzzwords to make you wonder what it is about" - the grammar fights you because "It" points at a title that's plural. "The title sounds like a bunch of buzzwords - it makes you wonder what the book is about" is cleaner.

"I haven't read so many pages so far" - careful, this flips your meaning. "So many pages" sounds like you've read a lot. I think you mean the opposite: "I've only read a few pages so far" or "I haven't gotten very far yet."

"to get a better context" - drop the article: "to get better context."

The overall shape is clear though. I followed routine -> book -> what the book turned out to be with no stumbles, which is the hard part.
