O TYM ODCINKU
Large Language Models have taken the world by storm. But what are the real use cases? What are the challenges in productionizing them? In this event, you will hear from practitioners about how they are dealing with things such as cost optimization, latency requirements, trust of output, and debugging. You will also get the opportunity to join workshops that will teach you how to set up your use cases and skip over all the headaches.

// Abstract
Dive into the complexities of Language Model (LLM) evaluation, the role of the Phoenix evaluations library, and the importance of highly customized evaluations in software applications. The discourse delves into the nuances of fine-tuning in AI, the debate between the use of open-source versus private models, and the urgency of getting models into production for early identification of bottlenecks. Then, examine the relevance of retrieved information, output legitimacy, and the operational advantages of Phoenix in supporting LLM evaluations.
