Main Presentation
Google Gemini AI via .NET with Jochen Kirstätter
This talk empowers .NET developers to integrate Google's powerful Gemini Large Language Model (LLM) API into their applications, unlocking new levels of functionality and creativity.
Attendees will learn the practical steps for setting up their .NET projects, making API calls to Gemini, and effectively processing the responses. The session will highlight Gemini's compelling features, including its capacity for diverse tasks, streaming for fast responsiveness, a 1 million token context window for enhanced accuracy, multimodal support (text, images, video), and model tuning capabilities for reality-augmented generation and reduced hallucinations.
Developers will discover how Gemini can significantly boost productivity, add advanced features like text summarization and Q&A, and unleash creative potential within their .NET applications.
Through practical code examples and live demos, the talk aims to equip developers to build smarter, more engaging applications and stay at the forefront of AI innovation.
