This talk will explore how NVIDIA Blueprints are accelerating AI development and deployment across various industries, with a focus on building intelligent video analytics agents. Powered by generative AI, vision-language models (VLMs), large language models (LLMs), and NVIDIA NIM Microservices, these agents can be directed through natural language to perform tasks such as video summarization, visual question answering, and real-time alerts. This talk will show how VSS accelerates insight from video, helping industries transform footage into accurate, actionable intelligence.
