TechTalks Edinburgh 9 – Nix & AI-Driven Development

Should I use Nix for my next AI project? Noon van der Silk We're all hacking with AI these days; writing in pretty much any language we choose. So do we still need package management? Reproducibility? Deployment? Collaboration? Perhaps. In this talk, we will explore what Nix adds to AI-driven development workflows from at least three perspectives. ----------------------------------------------------------- Agenda: 6:00pm - 6:30pm - Welcome • grab a drink • take some pizza • have a quick chat 6:30pm- 6:40pm - Opening talk 6:40pm-7:30pm - Main talk 7:30pm-7:45pm - q&a 7:45pm-8:00pm - beverages • networking • closing. 8:00pm onwards - Afterparty at a nearby pub. ----------------------------------------------------------- Speaker Spotlight: Noon van der Silk – Founder, Invariant Club – https://www.linkedin.com/in/noonsilk/ Noon has been programming for longer than he's been alive. Starting aeons ago, by transitioning from high-energic states distributed evenly into mostly low-energy energy states distributed somewhat unevenly, Noon has always known how to arrange information. In 11 dimensions, you can look almost anywhere; so yes, Noon is user-focused. Noon has a background in mathematics, quantum computing, and functional programming, and has recently been spending his time as a human being excited about reproducible and joyful software engineering. ----------------------------------------------------------- Partners: CodeBase Dougray Scottish Technology Club Beyond Tech Lyxonn ----------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: We will take pictures and videos of the event for our social pages.
