Enterprise Agenda Highlights

Optimising AI Infrastructure for oncoming disruptive technologies

This keynote will explore how Airbus is using artificial intelligence (AI) and big data to transform itself and the aerospace industry. We'll look at real-world examples of how these technologies are improving our products, making our operations more efficient, and helping our customers do the same. We'll also touch on how quantum computing could change the game. Our ultimate goal is to significantly reduce our environmental impact and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.

Lessons Learned from a Large-Scale AI Infrastructure Deployment with a European Bank

Enterprise Scale Generative AI and LLMOps

The explosion of interest in Large Language Models (LLMs) and other Foundation Models (FMs) over the past two years has meant that more organizations want to know what it takes to run solutions using these models in production. In this talk, Andy will share his learnings on how to organise your people and technology to take full advantage of these capabilities and run production grade solutions at scale. He will discuss common architectures, emerging team structures and how evaluation and monitoring practices need to be upgraded for the GenAI era. This talk is useful for anyone involved in the deployment and operations of systems where the latest wave of machine learning models play a role.
