Dive into the future of Generative AI

Dear members of the Criteo community,

Generative AI is revolutionising the way we design, create and interact with technology. The Criteo Tech Meet will be an immersive dive into this fascinating world, exploring the infinite possibilities offered by Generative AI.

For this edition, we are delighted to welcome our VP of Engineering on AI, who will introduce the event. We are also privileged to welcome three exceptional speakers, one from our R&D team and two guest speakers from Sicara.

Agenda

- 6:30 PM - Welcoming

- 7:00 PM -

• Introduction by our VP Engineering on AI ; Romain Lerallut
• Talk: Unleashing Creativity: The Magic of Generative AI by Jaspreet Kaur Sandhu, Machine Learning Engineer at Criteo. In this talk, we will delve into the captivating world of Generative AI, a cutting-edge technology that is transforming industries and captivating the imagination of both machine learning experts and the general public alike. Generative AI is a branch of artificial intelligence that focuses on the creation of content, including but not limited to audio, code, images, text, simulations and videos. We will dive deep into its history, fundamental building blocks, its potential to transform the creative process as we know it and the impact that will be felt across industries with an emphasis on advertising. We will further take a tour through some important questions that Generative AI has resurfaced, and which often are linked to its virality in news reports, like ethics, ownership, bias, whether creative ability implies consciousness and much more.
• Talk: Building LLM-based products: technical and product learnings by Pierre-Henri Cumenge, CTO & Noé Achache, Lead AI Engineer from Sicara. While building Proof of Concepts has become incredibly easy, building a product using LLMs that actually brings value to its users has its own challenges, especially in circumstances where we need high accuracy of the results. In this talk, we will explore the lessons learned from building two products that are typical use cases of these technologies: a financial document analysis automation and a RAG (retrieval augmented generation) tool for the drug documentation of a medical company. After detailing the product architectures, we will explore how we used other techniques on top of the LLMs to improve accuracy, how to improve the product UX to take into account imperfections of the models, and how to optimize the costs and performance when scaling past a proof of concept with GPT-4. We will dig as well into the tools, such as Langsmith, that helped us improve our datasets and helped the product experts assist the technical team in building these products.

- 8:30 PM - Networking and cocktails.
