AWS WUG Cloud Talks: Data Architectures and LLM Evaluation

The next meetup features 2 GenAI talks: (1) fine-tuning image generation models like Stable Diffusion, (2) the transformative impact of Large Language Models (LLMs) on customer service.

Agenda: 18:00 - 18:30: Doors open 18:30 - 18:40: Welcome 18:40 - 19:10: Fine-Tune Your Own Stable Diffusion Model - Tips and Tricks Included 19:10 - 19:40: Pizza & Beers 19:40 - 20:10: AI Tools in Action: Enhancing Customer Experience with LLMs at Polestar 20:10 - 21:00: Networking

Fine-Tune Your Own Stable Diffusion Model - Tips and Tricks Included Daniel Pleus - Data Scientist, Schibsted

Recently, models and tools like Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, and Dalle-3 have made significant strides in generating high-quality, hyper-realistic images. The innovation doesn't stop with their out-of-the-box capabilities, though. Recent advancements have enabled the fine-tuning of these models on commodity hardware, unlocking new potential for personalized image generation.

In this talk, we'll embark on the practical journey of fine-tuning the Stable Diffusion model with an unexpected protagonist: Otto, Schibsted's plush octopus mascot. Using Stable Diffusion, we send him to faraway countries, place him in historical settings, or change his appearance. You'll discover how Stable Diffusion operates, learn how to fine-tune it with techniques like textual inversion and LoRA, and receive many tips about the optimal settings. We will deep dive into prompts, guidance factors, denoising steps, and random seeds. By the end of this talk, you should feel comfortable conducting your own experiments.

Speakers Bio: Daniel Pleus is a key member of Schibsted's AI Enablement Program as a Data Scientist Lead, where he assists over 60 Schibsted brands in discovering AI use cases and developing prototypes. His recent focus has been on Generative AI, including fine-tuning and deploying models. Before joining Schibsted, Daniel worked in various data and analytics roles and has an academic background in Economics.

Title: AI Tools in Action: Enhancing Customer Experience with LLMs at Polestar Olga Larina - AI & Data Scientist @ Polestar Customer Experience Department

Join me for a presentation where I'll delve into the innovative toolkit that our team has employed to revolutionize customer service. This year, we’ve rolled out our first solution based on a Large Language Model (LLM), and let me tell you—it’s changing the game.

Starting with summarization and information extraction in February 2023, we’ve now set our sights on enhancing our Care Advisors' capabilities with AI that generates responses to customer cases with the precision and expertise of a seasoned professional. Our advisors were excited about our prototype reveal last year. It was clear they were all in, finding the AI support not just cool but also a true timesaver.

In my talk, I will reveal how tools like Langchain’s sophisticated models and chains, and LlamaIndex’s robust vector stores, empower LLMs to excel. Consider this a brief but insightful tour into the technology that’s making our customer service smarter, faster, and way more fun.

I am thrilled to guide you through the varied applications of AI tools that are proving to be incredibly relevant in today's tech landscape. The journey is just beginning, and the pace of development is nothing short of breathtaking. Every day brings new surprises and possibilities. Come and join my talk!

Speakers Bio: At CX, our mission is to mine diverse data types to enhance customer experience, inform business strategy, and streamline operations. Our objectives span traditional data science, including tabular data analysis and natural language processing (NLP). This year, we're delving into the transformative realm of large language models, exploring their vast potential. Previously, I contributed as a Data Scientist at Nexer working on different types of projects including NLP, and CV (Computer Vision), and I have a background in software development, where I engaged in automation testing, analysis, and product ownership. My academic journey began with mathematics at a university in Russia.

Tech Talk: Searching and Reasoning Over Multimedia Data with Vector Databases and LMMs

Speaker: Zain Hasan (Weaviate) Abstract: In this talk, Zain Hasan will discuss how we can use open-source multimodal embedding models in conjunction with large generative multimodal models that can that can see, hear, read, and feel data(!), to perform cross-modal search(searching audio with images, videos with text etc.) and multimodal retrieval augmented generation (MM-RAG) at the billion-object scale with the help of open source vector databases. I will also demonstrate, with live code demos, how being able to perform this cross-modal retrieval in real-time can enables users to use LLMs that can reason over their enterprise multimodal data. This talk will revolve around how we can scale the usage of multimodal embedding and generative models in production.

AI Meetup (February): AI, GenAI, LLMs and ML

*** RSVP: https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2024022210 (Due to limited room capacity, you must pre-register at the link for admission).

Welcome to the monthly in-person AI meetup in London. Join us for deep dive tech talks on AI, GenAI, LLMs and machine learning, food/drink, networking with speakers and fellow developers.

Agenda: * 6:00pm\~7:00pm: Checkin, Food/drink and Networking * 7:00pm\~9:00pm: Tech talks and Q&A * 9:00pm: Open discussion and Mixer

Tech Talk: Deploy self-hosted open-source AI solutions Speaker: Dmitri Evseev @Arbitration City Abstract: I will share practical insights from my journey from law firm partner to AI startup founder, focusing on deploying self-hosted, open-source AI solutions in the legal sector and beyond. I will discuss the benefits of self-hosting over third-party APIs, the challenges of implementing these systems for production use, and methods to optimise GPU usage with open-source tools. The talk will also cover approaches to integrate containerised architectures and encryption for secure, scalable AI deployment, aiming to assist the LLMOps community and others exploring self-hosted AI and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).

Tech Talk: Falcon OS - An open source LLM Operating System Speaker: Heiko Hotz (Google) Abstract: In this talk I will introduce the Falcon OS project, a collaboration with the Technology Innovation Institute and Weights & Biases. Falcon OS is a new operating system project centered around the open-source Falcon 40B LLM. It aims to simplify complex tasks through natural language, bridging the gap between users and computers. This talk will explore its potential to transform AI applications and what it takes for an LLM to be able to reason and act, a key capability for such a system.

Tech Talk: Navigating LLM Deployment: Tips, Tricks, and Techniques Speaker: Meryem Arik (TitanML) Abstract: Self-hosted Language Models are going to power the next generation of applications in critical industries like financial services, healthcare, and defence. Self-hosting LLMs, as opposed to using API-based models, comes with its own host of challenges - as well as needing to solve business problems, engineers need to wrestle with the intricacies of model inference, deployment and infrastructure. In this talk we are going to discuss the best practices in model optimisation, serving and monitoring - with practical tips and real case-studies.
