Generative AI in practice: Concrete LLM use cases in Java, with the PaLM API By Guillaume Laforge

Описание: Large language models (LLMs) are a powerful new technology that can be used for a variety of tasks, including generating text, translating languages, and writing different kinds of creative content. However, LLMs can be difficult to use, especially for developers who are not proficient in Python, the lingua franca for AI. So what about us Java developers? How can we make use of Generative AI?
This presentation will go through how to use LLMs in Java without the need for Python. We will use the PaLM API, provided by Google Cloud’s Vertex AI services, to perform a variety of tasks, such as searching through documentation, generating kids stories, summarizing content, extracting keywords or entities, and more.
