Hands-on session building a CLI chatbot with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) using Couchbase Shell; practical implementation and experimentation.

Overview of how LLMs, embeddings, and vector databases enable semantic search; introduction to Couchbase Shell (a Nushell-based CLI) and how to build a chatbot, with setup and connection to Couchbase Capella and an OpenAI (or compatible) API key.

Learn how to build a GenAI application in Python using Azure and the OpenAI API.

The future of education lies in personalized and scalable solutions, especially in fields like computer engineering where complex concepts often challenge students. This talk introduces Lumina (AI Teaching Assistant), a cutting-edge agentic system designed to revolutionize programming education through its innovative architecture and teaching strategies. Built using OpenAI API, LangChain, RAG, and ChromaDB, Lumina employs an agentic, multi-modal framework that dynamically integrates course materials, technical documentation, and pedagogical strategies into an adaptive knowledge-driven system. Its unique "Knowledge Components" approach decomposes programming concepts into interconnected teachable units, enabling proficiency-based learning and dynamic problem-solving guidance.
