A Practical Guide to Machine Learning in Elixir

Chris Grainger · Amplified

At Amplified, we've been putting ML in production with Elixir since the very early days of Nx in 2022. This talk is a practical guide to doing the same, informed by our experiences and the lessons we've learned. Because every project, company, and machine learning task is different, I will combine a general 'roadmap' approach with insights shaped by our particular set of problems and perspectives. We managed to go all in on Elixir, ridding our stack of Python entirely, and I believe (in most cases) you can too.

Up next · 7:00

Working with OpenAI APIs in Elixir

Josh Price · Alembic

Discover the power of integrating OpenAI's cutting-edge APIs into your Elixir applications. This talk will guide you through the essentials of setting up, authenticating, and making requests to OpenAI's API using Elixir. We'll cover practical examples, best practices, and common pitfalls, ensuring you leave equipped to harness the full potential of AI in your projects. Whether you're building chatbots, generating content, or exploring new AI-driven functionalities, this session will provide the knowledge and tools you need to succeed.

That's a wrap

Thank you

Thanks for coming. Stick around for a chat, and we're always after speakers, first-timers included.
