Session
Pydantic is a data validation library for Python that has seen massive adoption over the last few years - it's used by major datascience and ML libraries like Spacy, Huggingface and jinja-ai - overall Pydantic is downloaded over 55m times a month!
In this talk Samuel Colvin, the creator of Pydantic will cover two subjects which have seen massive interest in recent years:
- How Pydantic can be used to prepare data for machine learning thereby saving time and avoiding errors
- The emergence of Rust as the go-to language for high performance python libraries - how this might go in the future, and the benefits and drawbacks of the trend
