Generative AI in Rust at Software Freedom Day!

+

1st October 2023, Paphos

+
+

 

+

Last weekend your favourite people at the CDC organised a conference for Software Freedom Day. We beat all our affluence records and we had 3 great talks discussing Open Source.

+

Of course, I came up with a creative idea to include Rust in the discussion and prepared a talk about my experience using AI and trying to avoid Python.

+

Even though the ecosystem is still in its early days, you can use tch-rs to access torchlib (the very same library which powers Pytorch) and implement plenty of popular models (with a bit of effort).

+

Candle is definitely the project to keep an eye on; it's an machine learning framework written in Rust which wants to be minimal and ready for serverless.

+

It's also growing at a rapid pace: since my presentation, it already gained a candle-transformers crate which wants to mirror the popular Python package transformers.

+

We also talked about fake OSS licenses like HuggingFace's OpenRAIL, we worried about European regulations destroying Open Source software and we discussed the pro and cons of having a personal Open Source project. What a day!

+

I was blown away by the quality of the talks. +Want to check them out too? Here they are!
