AIStream: AI & Stream Processing - Open Coworking + Social Hour

## Details

Highlights for this event

• I have been working with my friend Sid to integrate stream processing with ChatGPT for a real time chat bot application.
• The application integrates with DeltaStream for real time stream processing to help fetch customer data from various data sources. if folks are interested, I would love to show this during this event.
• This application is inspired by this blog from Confluent that provides a pattern on how to leverage enterprise data in real time to provide a more human like chat interaction using fine tuned LLMs: https://www.confluent.io/blog/chatgpt-and-streaming-data-for-real-time-generative-ai/
• More about DeltaStream can be found here: www.deltastream.io.
• I am also launching a newsletter to cover topics on building serverless cloud platforms, feel free to subscribe: https://2minuteserverless.beehiiv.com/
• if folks have anything to demo, feel free to bring it to the event.
