Talk

Gen AI? WANT that!

With “AI” ushering in a new wave of applications, we’re well into our struggle with decision paralysis. For web development, Next.js is an incredible tool to combat this! Frameworks are made to be opinionated and take away the fatigue of decisions in a world filled with choices. In the talk, I introduce the idea of the WANT stack, with Weaviate, “(Gen) AI”, Next.js and Typescript to act as relief from numerous decisions we have to make building AI-Native applications for the web. I dive into the latest and greatest of each of these technologies with exciting live technical demos and explanations tackling use cases like RAG and agents.
