    Join a small cohort with subject matter experts and uncover generative AI solution insights with hands-on labs. Develop rapid prototypes. Learn to achieve high recall rates, reduce latency, minimize hallucinations, and balance cost-performance optimization at production scale through practical strategies. According to Deloitte's 2024 survey, barriers to generative AI adoption include errors with real-world consequences, not achieving expected value, lack of high-quality data, hallucinations, and inaccuracies.
    In this data and use-case-focused generative AI workshop, developers, architects, and technical decision-makers will learn the framework to build and scale applications such as real-time conversational AI and recommendation engines with RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).

    Event Prerequisites:

    • Government issued ID required for event check in
    • Bring your laptop for hands-on sessions and labs
