Building AI Apps for Real-World Use Cases: From Basics to Production
In this 3-hour hands-on workshop, Ravin Kumar (Deep Mind, Google, ex-Tesla) and Hugo Bowne-Anderson (Vanishing Gradients) will show you how to build and improve a simple AI application, simulating the complete lifecycle of AI app development:
1️⃣ Evaluation and Tuning: Set up a basic app, create evaluation sets, and iterate on prompts to improve outputs for simple chatbot.
2️⃣ First Pass Optimization: Learn how to evaluate your application for speed up inference and reduce costs while keeping the app efficient and scalable.
3️⃣ Iteration and Model Selection: Take the next step to improve your application by, identifying failure points, and exploring alternative solutions.
This workshop is designed to give you hands-on experience with the tools, trade-offs, and challenges of real-world AI applications. The code will be simple, the lessons practical, and the insights invaluable for your AI journey.
No need for specialized hardware—we’ll use a streamlined coding setup to ensure everything runs locally on your machine.
