Creating a chatbot using MakerSuite, PaLM API and Angular

In this talk, you will learn how to build a chatbot from scratch using Google's latest Generative AI using MakerSuite, PaLM API and Angular.

MakerSuite is a tool to build the new wave of Generative AI applications using PaLM foundational models. MakerSuite makes it simple to engineer prompts, so that you can create and experiment with LLMs to create AI-enabled Apps within minutes. By using MakerSuite, we will prototype, validate, and refine our ideas. From here is as easy as, export your code and start building!

We will be introducing the PaLM APIs for Text and Chat to build the foundations of a Bard-like Assistant with advanced features like adding a rich-text-editor for prompts, ElevenLabs natural voices to speak out outputs, and rendering rich media for chat rendering markdown, code fences, MermaidJS diagrams and more!
