- Hello and welcome to the Machine Learning Podcast, the podcast about machine learning and how to bring it from idea to delivery.
- Your host is Tobias Macey and today I'm interviewing Colin Priest about applying generative AI to the task of building and deploying AI pipelines
- Introduction
- How did you get involved in machine learning?
- Can you start by giving the 30,000 foot view of the steps involved in an AI pipeline?
- Understand the problem
- Feature ideation
- Feature engineering
- Experiment
- Optimize
- Productionize
- What are the stages of that process that are prone to repetition?
- What are the ways that teams typically try to automate those steps?
- What are the features of generative AI models that can be brought to bear on the design stage of an AI pipeline?
- What are the validation/verification processes that engineers need to apply to the generated suggestions?
- What are the opportunities/limitations for unit/integration style tests?
- What are the elements of developer experience that need to be addressed to make the gen AI capabilities an enhancement instead of a distraction?
- What are the interfaces through which the AI functionality can/should be exposed?
- What are the aspects of pipeline and model deployment that can benefit from generative AI functionality?
- What are the potential risk factors that need to be considered when evaluating the application of this functionality?
- What are the most interesting, innovative, or unexpected ways that you have seen generative AI used in the development and maintenance of AI pipelines?
- What are the most interesting, unexpected, or challenging lessons that you have learned while working on the application of generative AI to the ML workflow?
- When is generative AI the wrong choice?
- What do you have planned for the future of FeatureByte's AI copilot capabiliteis?
