Listen "Generative models: exploration to deployment"
Episode Synopsis
What is the model lifecycle like for experimenting with and then deploying generative AI models? Although there are some similarities, this lifecycle differs somewhat from previous data science practices in that models are typically not trained from scratch (or even fine-tuned). Chris and Daniel give a high level overview in this effort and discuss model optimization and serving.Join the discussionChangelog++ members save 2 minutes on this episode because they made the ads disappear.
