About the talk
In this hands-on workshop, we will dissect how embeddings, vector similarity search, and large language models interact at a systems level to power real-world AI applications, with a hands-on demo using AWS services, and using a local setup to understand how the system itself works under the hood.
We will dive deep into chunking strategies, embedding generation, vector indexing, prompt construction, and inference orchestration — with explicit attention to cost optimization, IAM security, and scalability constraints.
