Nov 05, '24 | Stack Developer Conference 2024, Singapore

This comprehensive workshop covers a detailed code walkthrough of building an AI agent from scratch and deploying it to production. We'll cover key concepts like RAG, and explore the design process for agents, including planning, tool design, handling agent communication, memory, evaluation, testing and observability. Attendees will get hands-on experience with both code and no-code tools to build and deploy AI agents to production using open source frameworks like LangChain and Cloud Platform tools like Vertex AI.    [Slides]

Sep 24, '24 | GDG, Singapore

Use GenAI for data cleaning, augmentation, and complex business analytics. This talk walks through GenAI capabilities for synthetic data generation, using multimodality for feature engineering and working with AI agents for data insights.    [Slides] [Demo]

Aug 30, '24 | Ernst & Young (EY), Malaysia (Webinar)

In this talk, we explore the topologies within different frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, MetaGpt and Autogen) and their approach to intra-agent communication. We'll delve into the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, offering a comprehensive perspective on building effective multi-agent systems.    [Slides]
