AI Pipelines: Building 9's of reliability, when everything is probabilistic

Data Engineers in Toronto August 2025 Monthly Meeting

Topic: AI Pipelines: Building 9's of reliability, when everything is probabilistic

Abstract:
The expectations of our users have never been higher, yet the likelihood of bug-free code has never been lower. Whether it's because the model failed at structured outputs, network downtime, or just wasn't smart enough, its becoming harder and harder to ship working applications.

In this live webinar, we'll chat about how companies are building businesses that make millions of dollars on AI pipelines. What they are doing to prevent hallucinations, and why a new programming language is the key to it all.

Speaker: Vaibhav Gupta, Founder of Boundary (Y Combinator startup), Co-creator of BAML, and prev. Computer Vision @ Microsoft & Google

Speaker Profile:
Vaibhav is the Founder of Boundary, a Y Combinator startup developing a new programming language (BAML) that makes LLMs both easier and more efficient for developers. Think of prompts like javascript, and BAML like Typescript for AI engineers.
