Event Description:
David Frigeri, Managing Director of Data & AI at Slalom, and Quncai Zou, Senior Data Scientist at DataRobot, will be leading the session on Generative AI and how organizations should be adopting a holistic approach beyond experimentation. There will also be an end-to-end demonstration of building a Large Language Model (LLM), pairing it with a Predictive Model that serves as an auditor of the accuracy of the LLM to solve for the “confidence problem” inherent to GenAI. If time permits, we will also discuss and illustrate how organizations are managing FinOps with GenAI to mitigate runaway costs via custom metrics and token monitoring
