Charlie Holtz explains how to prototype and deploy AI agents using Elixir and the BEAM.
Leave comments at: elixirforum.com/t/elixirconf-2023-charlie-holtz-building-ai-… This talk is about prototyping and deploying AI agents with Elixir. AI agents are all the rage right now. What are AI agents? Imagine a team of specialized AI models helping us with tasks throughout the day. One agent for handling email, one for booking appointments, one for scheduling your meetings, etc. Most people reach for Python to build these tools, but the distributed, functional, and scalable nature of the BEAM + Elixir Agents (funnily enough) is the ideal tool for building these kinds of agents. As an engineer at Replicate (run open source machine learning models at scale), I’ve had a front-row seat to what people are building. I’ve created a bunch of AI applications, but I’ve also written an Elixir library (hex.pm/packages/replicate), and an open-source social network with Phoenix LiveView (shlinkedin.com). I’m very excited about recent AI developments, and I’d love to convince you why Elixir is well-positioned for an AI agent-driven future.What people say. Recommended as a talk that explores building generative AI agents with Elixir.
