Max Pumperla
Hi there, I'm Max 👋,
I’m a Data Science & Engineering practitioner from Hamburg, Germany. I’m an avid open source contributor, author of machine learning & technology books, speaker and Coursera instructor.
I specialize in Deep Learning and its applications and can build machine learning solutions and data products from first prototype to production. As Ray contributor, DL4J core developer, Keras contributor, Hyperopt maintainer and author of a range of open source libraries, I have a distinct view on ML engineering and the data science ecosystem.
Sessions
Large language models are all the rage, but building scalable applications with them can be costly and difficult. In this talk, we give you a glimpse at the emerging ecosystem of LLM apps beyond just ChatGPT. In particular, we focus on OSS alternatives, like the Llama model family, and show you how to use them in your own projects. We discuss how to leverage services like Anyscale Endpoints in Python to get LLM apps up and running quickly. To demonstrate this, we showcase two application we built ourselves, namely a GitHub bot that helps you with your pull requests, and an "Ask AI" chatbot that we integrated into our project documentation.
