Building an AI demo is easier than ever:
👉 Connect an API
👉 Write a Prompt
👉 Add a chat interface
But bringing AI into a real business workflow requires much more:
- 📚 Can every answer be grounded in reliable sources?
- 🛠️ Which tools is the Agent allowed to use?
- 🛑 Can it stop when something goes wrong?
- 🙋 Do critical actions require human approval?
- 📊 Can its execution process be evaluated and traced?
In this live workshop, JR Academy founder Lightman Wang will code and build a controlled AI Agent from scratch—live, without using a prerecorded demo.
## 👨💻 What Lightman Will Build Live
- 🔍 RAG knowledge retrieval and citations
- 🧰 MCP Tools and Tool Calling
- 🔄 Agent Loops and execution boundaries
- ✅ Human Approval workflows
- 🛡️ Failure handling and execution tracing
You will see how a basic AI feature can evolve into an Agent that is:
Grounded · Actionable · Controlled · Traceable
## 🔥 AI Engineer Bootcamp Cohort #07 Upgrade
Instead of completing disconnected AI demos, students will spend 13 weeks continuously building and upgrading the same Agent project.
The system will evolve through five stages:
- 🧱 System Foundation
- ⚡ First AI Workflow
- 📚 Grounded Intelligence
- 🤖 Agent System
- 🚀 Production Standard
### 🧑💻 Upgraded Teaching Format
📖 Theory Live: Learn the principles, architecture and engineering decisions.
💻 Practice Live: Code and implement each capability in the project.
12 Theory Live sessions + 13 Practice Live sessions
From Week 1 to Week 13, every session contributes to the same Agent system.
## 👥 Who Should Attend?
- Software Engineers
- Backend and Full-stack Developers
- Data and ML Engineers
- DevOps and Cloud Engineers
- Developers who have built RAG or Agent demos
- Technology professionals preparing for an AI Engineer transition or interview
