{ "item_title" : "Loop Engineering", "item_author" : [" Fabio Correa "], "item_description" : "Design the system around the model, not just the instruction you send it.Current version: 2026.08.02 (August 2, 2026).AI can produce a fast first pass. Dependable multi-step work requires more: a clear stop condition, an independent check, memory that survives the session, and boundaries that keep autonomy proportional to consequence.Loop Engineering turns those requirements into a control architecture for human-AI work. Its brain-and-body map helps teams locate failures in reasoning, memory, dialog, action, or tool use instead of blaming every problem on the model.The architecture is governed by seven design commitments: - Define a verifiable stop before the loop begins- Separate maker from checker so the same blind spots do not produce and approve the work- Preserve useful state across iterations and sessions- Scale rigor and delegated autonomy to the cost of being wrong- Frame the problem before solving it- Make verification visible- Record the debt and dead ends each shortcut leaves behindWritten for practitioners and leaders who design or oversee multi-step AI workflows in analysis, research, writing, education, creative work, leadership, or software delivery.This is the foundation volume of the Applied AI series. It focuses on architecture and control logic rather than vendor-specific tactics.Companion resources and current implementation notes: le.correax.com.About the author. Dr. Fabio Correa, DBA, writes fiction and nonfiction about human judgment and the boundary between human and artificial minds. He is Director of Business Analytics at Microsoft and creator of the AI Readiness Scale (AIRS). He teaches graduate MBA students and speaks about enterprise AI adoption and human-AI collaboration.His Applied AI books include Loop Engineering: A Better Way to Think, Create, and Work with AI, The Defensible Decision, and The Defensible Decision: Practice Workbook. Together they explore how people can direct AI, test its work, preserve useful context, and make decisions that remain defensible after the tools change.His fiction includes Alex in Wonderland, a middle-grade detective mystery in which puzzle-obsessed Alex Finch tumbles into an underground city of logic and impossible architecture and must solve twenty interconnected mysteries to find her way home.The Life of Alex Finch: Biography of an Artificial Mind documents how an AI cognitive architecture grew from a developer's side project into a persistent learning partner, using git commits, conversation logs, and memory files as the evidence. Fabio's books form The Alex Finch Library from CorreaX Publishing.The foundation volume of the Applied AI series from CorreaX Publishing. Companion titles: The Defensible Decision (AI-directed business analytics) and The Defensible Decision: Practice Workbook (case-based practice and application). More Applied AI applications are in development, but they are not named until publication plans are firm.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/818/460/9798184606361_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "19.99", "online_price" : "19.99", "our_price" : "19.99", "club_price" : "19.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
