Over the last year, the massive interest in AI has risen to new levels. We know that the interest starts with the release of ChatGPT and the subsequent release of a new GenAI model almost every other week—each new model with new added benefits over the previous one. With cost in mind, one of the remaining challenges is navigating the open source ecosystem to continually apply DevOps practices and tools to improve and release AI applications, such as an entire RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) pipeline. This talk will explore the challenges and solutions we can leverage to create or enhance the data science, development, and operations culture of collaboration and continuous delivery. By the end of the session, the audience will have a comprehensive understanding of the Cloud Native AI and DevOps tooling ecosystem, enabling them to better utilize it within their organizations and create or enhance a culture of continuous improvement and accountability.
