What happened
This is the blog index of ML engineer Hamel Husain, featuring his article 'Do Automated Evals Work?' alongside a comprehensive archive of practical guides on LLM evaluation, LLM-as-a-judge, and building AI products. Husain is a leading authority on designing robust evaluation pipelines for LLMs.
Why it matters
Robust evaluation is the single biggest bottleneck to shipping reliable LLM products, and Husain is one of the few practitioners sharing rigorous, battle-tested methodologies.
The take
Hamel Husain's writings are mandatory reading for anyone serious about moving LLM applications from prototype to production. Even though this is just a blog index, his focus on practical, non-hype evaluation methodologies (like LLM-as-a-judge and adversarial validation) provides the exact blueprint engineering teams need to build reliable systems.
