PRO Session: Reproducible AI with Langchain and lakeFS

Thursday February 13, 2025 11:00am - 11:25am PST

Amit Kesarwani, Treeverse, Director, Solution Architecture

Langchain has become one of the most popular frameworks for anyone building custom, generative AI-driven apps powered by LLMs, that leverage RAG for the most enhanced results. But like all data products, these applications are really only as good as the org data fed into them.

In this live session you’ll learn how to build a reproducible AI app pipeline with Langchain & lakeFS, including how to build a RAG chatbot, while iteratively tuning it for best results leveraging Delta Lake’s temporal versions, you’ll come away with improved methods for data reproducibility for custom AI apps.

OPEN Session: Compute Orchestration

Thursday February 13, 2025 1:00pm - 1:25pm PST

AI DevWorld Stage

Patrick Lundquist, Clarifai, Staff Engineer

AI’s development and deployment demands robust infrastructure to handle complexity, scale, and performance, all while keeping costs in check. The answer? Orchestration. A Compute Orchestration Layer, for example, can reduce compute costs by up to 90% while enabling seamless scalability and effectiveness.

In this session, Patrick Lundquist, Staff Engineer at Clarifai, will share how full-stack AI orchestration empowers the developer by simplifying AI development. Through real-world use cases, we’ll explore how organizations are leveraging Compute Orchestration to:

Save developer time with SDKs and CLI that streamlines the model build process

Easily manage configuration and dependencies so you can get back to building AI

Streamline AI development by unifying tools and usage in a centralized control plane with robust governance.

Attendees will leave with actionable insights into how orchestration can transform their AI workflows, along with real-world examples of how leading organizations have implemented these solutions to drive innovation at scale.

OPEN Session: From Thought to Action: How Agentic AI Will Reshape Enterprise AI

Thursday February 13, 2025 2:00pm - 2:25pm PST

DeveloperWeek MAIN STAGE

Utkarsh Contractor, Aisera, VP of AI

Enterprises are on the cusp of a transformative shift. They are moving beyond task-specific AI to embrace agentic systems capable of autonomous decision-making and actions through probabilistic reasoning. This evolution marks a new era of autonomy, where AI not only augments human capabilities but also drives business outcomes by:
- Optimizing Operations: Self-regulating systems enhance efficiency, ensure compliance, and proactively mitigate risks.
- Accelerating Innovation: Data-driven insights fuel strategic decision-making, enabling rapid market adaptation.
- Enhancing Customer Experience: Intelligent agents anticipate customer needs, delivering personalized solutions.

Although the potential benefits are immense, successful implementation demands a strategic approach that encompasses ethical considerations, security, and complexity management.

Join Utkarsh Contractor, VP of AI/ML at Aisera, as we explore the opportunities and challenges of this paradigm shift and how organizations can harness agentic AI to achieve sustained competitive advantage.

PRO Session: Embeddings: Core Concepts for Developers

Thursday February 13, 2025 2:00pm - 2:25pm PST

AI DevWorld MAIN STAGE

Jocelyn Matthews, Pinecone, DevRel, Head of Community

If you had a collection of every kind of animal on earth, from mules to narwhals to goldfish, how would we pick out just the animals that are housepets? And how does AI distinguish between a pack mule and a Moscow Mule?

Embeddings are numerical representations that capture the essential features and relationships of discrete objects, like words or images, in a continuous vector space, enabling tasks such as semantic search, clustering, and recommendations.

This is a dense but entertaining talk about the core concepts of embeddings, ranging from multidimensional vector space to the ever-familiar box of crayons we used as kids. The presentation will cover fundamental concepts, including how embeddings represent various data types, the importance of context sensitivity, and between dimensionality.

The talk introduces specialized terms and breaks them down into simple, everyday examples to help learners relate difficult concepts to familiar things. Then, we build back up to the specialized terms to deepen understanding.

Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how embeddings work, their benefits, and why they are leveraged in machine learning tasks
