Building and Scaling LLM Apps

With ChatGPT, foundational models have ignited the imaginations of people everywhere. Conversation has become code and the model is the CPU for this ultimate programming language. A new universe of application development has opened up, and there are no guides for it, yet. This talk will start at the foundation layer and build up to infrastructure, application development, and agents and autonomous applications. It will cover the impact on data quality, model versioning, evaluation strategies, pretraining, guardrails, observability and monitoring, prompt engineering and chains, safety, ethics, alignment, and interpretability. By the end of this talk, attendees will learn about best practices in building applications on top of LLMs. They will be equipped with a foundation to start exploring and experimenting with this cutting-edge technology, understanding its potential applications, challenges, and the impact it can have on the future of software development.
