Talk Descriptions
How I Built a Home Video RAG search app - Many folks spent time over the past holiday season tinkering with the latest models and tools to build side projects. I used this time to build an app that would allow me to search through home videos from my family. The talk will showcase 4 components I used to accomplish this:
1. A whisperX project to transcribe 150 GB of home videos
2. An ingestion pipeline and RAG app that uses the transcriptions as source data
3. A TUI app I built to learn OpenTUI which I use to manage vLLM inference server containers that powered the RAG app.
4. My AI home lab developer setup which the app runs on.
I will overview the stack and tools I used to build the above, what I learned along the way.
Test2Doc - William has been working on a reporter for Playwright that turns tests in to Docusaurus markdown. It's open source, and he's looking to get more users and feedback on it.
