Sam will kick off the event by sharing insights and discussing current front-end topics at Criteo.

7:15 PM - "Draw a Dashboard" by Daniel Flores, Software Development Engineer @Criteo

Don't miss Daniel's captivating presentation on generating dashboards with AI. With the latest vision models and related AI-powered techniques, it’s even easier now to add object detection and pattern recognition features into different products, experiments like v0.dev and draw-a-ui are good examples that it’s possible to apply it now for UI generation.

Daniel works at Criteo by creating dashboards; imagine being able to generate them by just drawing! it will save time, especially when bootstrapping new configurations, or it can be a cool feature to allow users to configure even more custom reports;

In this talk, let’s explore the results of my experimentation on UI generation by using our own design system and data visualization framework to produce dashboards from simple drawings.

7:45 PM - Second Talk by Henry Lagarde from Datadog

Henry Lagarde from Datadog will take the stage to present "Meet your new AI best friend: 🦜🔗LangChain".

It's a versatile tool that allows you to interact with your APIs or databases using your everyday language. We will explore all together how, with just a few lines of code, you can interact with any LLM Api and create you own and unique powered AI tool.

During the presentation, we will cover:

• LangChain 🦜🔗 and its ecosystem
