Open Source Web Apps of the Future With Web AI

Proposal status is Rejected
Session Description

AI is everywhere, but why should you care, as a web developer? Join Shivay Lamba, who will get you on track by demystifying common terminology ensuring no one is left behind, and then take you through some of the latest open source machine learning models, tools, and frameworks you can use right in the browser via JavaScript to help you bring your creative web app ideas to life for almost any industry you may be working in. By moving AI to the client side, there is no reliance on the server after the page load, bringing you benefits such as privacy, low latency, offline solutions, and lower costs which will be of growing importance as the field develops. This talk is suitable for everyone with a curiosity for web and machine learning, so come along and learn something new to put in your web engineering toolkit for 2024. This is even more relevant in 2024, because now you can run open source large language models directly in the browser via projects like WebLLM which means you can build privacy focused generative AI applications right in the browser using open source LLMs.


The capabilities are endless with WebAI.
