Product teams are scrambling to figure out what they will be doing with this latest wave of AI technologies, and engineering organizations are struggling to bring generative AI into enterprise environments. Beyond anecdotal ChatGPT interactions and intriguing demos, teams need to know how to validate inconsistent model outputs, mitigate the risk of hallucinations, structure text completions, maintain data privacy, integrate private data, establish competitive advantages, plan development activities, and understand the landscape of tooling.
Leaving this workshop, you will be equipped with processes and knowledge to overcome each of these barriers, and you will have gained the practical, hands-on expertise to start integrating generative AI in your domain.
Key Takeaways
1 Learn the essential AI engineering skills of prompting, data augmentation, chaining, developing agents, validating/filtering model inputs and outputs, and fine-tuning.
2 Get hands-on with the latest generative AI models (i.e., Falcon, MPT, Stable Diffusion, Zeroscope, WizardCoder, etc.)
3 Gain a better understanding of how transformative AI applications are being architected via a new generative AI stack of tools/infra.
