VIRTUAL AI DevSummit Main Stage

Nuno Campos, LangChain, Founding Engineer

This talk identifies the three key things that make LLM applications different from previous software: latency, versatility and flakiness. LLMs are orders of magnitude slower than we were used to. The outputs of LLM apps are also more variable, and prone to mistakes. And LLM apps can be taken by users into domains we the creators didn’t necessarily program into them or expect. I’ll show how we can use these 3 qualities to our advantage, by learning to work with them, and so use them to build things that were simply impossible before.
