Navigating the AI Landscape: Core concepts, tools and live demos

Aubergine invites you to an event which is designed for beginner developers looking to understand the fundamentals of AI and how to integrate AI models into real-world applications.

Instructors:
Het Patel, Sr. Software Engineer at Aubergine, will guide beginner developers through the fundamentals of AI, covering essential concepts such as pre-trained models, quantization, and function calling.
With a practical and interactive approach, Het aims to empower developers to confidently explore AI, experiment with models, and integrate AI into real-world applications.

Kinjal Christian, Associate Software Engineer at Aubergine, will provide a hands-on walk-through of building a search engine that retrieves the most relevant information from documents using LangChain and ChromaDB.
Attendees will gain a deep understanding of the entire pipeline—from uploading documents to generating embeddings and efficiently retrieving results.

Highlights:

Running AI models locally – Hands-on demo using Ollama to download, run, and serve a model.

Fine-tuning AI models – Using Google AI Studio for model fine-tuning.

Function calling – Understanding MCP (Model Context Protocol) and how AI can call functions.

Building AI-powered search engines – Learn how to retrieve the most relevant information from documents using semantic search.

Pipeline breakdown – Uploading documents to generating embeddings and efficiently retrieving results.

Live demo with Q&A – Showcasing AI models in action, uploading documents, running searches, and see how AI understands and finds the most relevant content.
