This technical presentation aims to equip attendees with the knowledge and practical skills to construct their own chatbot using large language models (LLMs). We will delve into the various software options available for hosting your own LLM, eliminating the need for complex infrastructure considerations.
Plus, we will discuss strategies for extending or growing the capabilities of your LLM, including the implementation of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
Lastly, we will demonstrate how to call the large language model from RPG or Db2 programs on IBM i, bridging the gap between traditional IBM i programming and modern AI technologies.
By the end of this presentation, attendees will be able to build their own AI chat interface using large language models, fostering innovation and efficiency in their IT environments.
