DESCRIPTION:One of the hardest parts of applied NLP has always been breakin
 g down complex business problems into machine learning components. It's so
  hard because it requires domain expertise and reasoning about the specifi
 c use case\, and it's the one thing technology couldn't fix. But what if w
 e could take some of the learnings from AI-powered coding assistants and a
 pply them to solving real-world NLP problems? In this talk\, I'll show how
  we've built powerful assistants and tools to help developers solve NLP ta
 sks using open-source software\, and create modular solutions that are sma
 ll\, fast and fully data-private.

DESCRIPTION:Open source powers the world's digital infrastructure — from 
 AI research to enterprise data pipelines. But how do you build a sustainab
 le business on it? This panel brings together three figures from the heart
  of the global open source ecosystem: Yann Lechelle (Probabl)\, who made t
 he deliberate switch from infrastructure CEO to open source\; Sylvain Corl
 ay (QuantStack)\, whose consulting business is built from and around the c
 ore of the Jupyter ecosystem and its maintainers\; and Ines Montani (Explo
 sion / spaCy)\, one of the most influential voices in NLP tooling. Three f
 ounders. Three paths. Real answers on what it takes to build — or switch
  to building — a business in open source.
