This lesson teaches you to build a complete prompt lifecycle management system: from schema design and registry architecture to statistical evaluation harnesses and CI/CD integration that makes rigorous testing the default, not the exception.
AI tools are powerful — but they have hard limits that can damage your credibility, expose your organization to legal risk, or just produce wrong answers with total confidence. This lesson teaches you exactly where those limits are and how to work around them professionally.
