  • Slipstream: How to Win the AI Race - Jeongkyu Shin (Keynote 1)

    By Jeongkyu Shin

    With the proliferation of generative AI, prohibitive development and adoption costs are becoming a major barrier to AI democratization. How can we lower the cost threshold and increase efficiency and ease of use when using or developing deep learning-based solutions? We introduce Slipstreaming, an approach from Rableup and Backend.AI to achieve massive performance and efficiency while standing on the shoulders of giants and masking all complexity.

  • [Track1-4_1] How developers collaborate with octocat without a planner - Jihyun Kang (Lablup)

    By Jihyun Kang

    Lablup doesn't have a planner position, but we're still releasing a lot of products and new features, including Backend.AI. We'll talk about the many trials and errors that led us to use GitHub, a platform that developers are familiar with. In particular, we'll talk about how we ended up using GitHub Projects, how most of our development infrastructure is open source, when we tried to adopt Jira and why we stopped, and the underlying issues of scaling the company. We'll also talk about how we use the most important GitHub Projects, their shortcomings, and how we're using GitHub Actions and Labels to solve them.

  • [Track1-5] Trends in hybrid inference in private-generated AI with WebGPUs - SukHyun Ko (Sionic AI)

    By SukHyun Ko
    1. WASM, the Rise of WebGPUs
    2. Performance evolution of edge devices - Apple M2 ultra beats A100
    3. Agent configuration by sLLM
    4. Federated Inference in the Age of Generative AI
    5. Use cases for private generative AI - LLM + Diffusion

    Speaker Introduction

    I am the CEO of Sionic AI and previously led major AI projects at NAVER and TOSS. At NAVER, I led the development of AI products for Clova and NAVER Cloud, and developed a system to orchestrate tens of thousands of deep learning models. At Toss, he rebuilt the semantic search and brand recommendation systems for the main search service.

    Currently, Sionic AI provides enterprise-class custom LLM services and is developing a SaaS product specialized in LLM Agent.

    We are challenging the new generative AI market with our technology and business experience.

  • [Track2-2] whisper fine-turning for Voice Beginner - Sungcheol Choi (PKNU)

    By Sungchul Choi

    In this presentation, "Fine-tuning Whisper for Voice Novelty", I will introduce the painstaking process of fine-tuning the Speech-to-Text feature by utilizing Whisper, a model provided by OpenAI, for a team touching voice data for the first time.
    In the age of LLM, he will also share how Whisper models and LLM can come together to transform new areas such as maritime communications, and how they leveraged Backend.AI to learn how to fine-tune Whisper models for their purposes.

    About the Speaker

    Currently, he is a professor at Pukyong National University, School of System Management Engineering, and has been conducting AI research mainly in the field of NLP. In addition to being a professor, he is also an entrepreneur who recently completed his LLM with ChatGPT and recklessly started an AI company in the field of trade, "TeamLibutte", believing that the world is changing due to the change of technology. As a company, I have to do voice fields other than NLP, so I am challenging it with tears (as a researcher).
