SEPTEMBER

OPEA Hackathon – September 30th and all of October

A fun-filled month-long event series that get you contributing to GenAI open source during Hacktober, building up the OPEA project, and adding to your own open source resume!

  • Opening ceremonies: September 30th – 830AM PT – 10AM PT
  • Ask Me Anything – Mid-Hackathon Check-in: October 16th 11AM PT – 1230PM PT
  • Closing ceremonies: October 31st at GenAI Nightmares 12PM PT – 3PM PT
Do you have experience in deploying applications to hyperscalers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud? How about packaging them and publishing on package repositories like Canonical? Get these applications up and running on a k8s cluster? This hackathon is for you!
We’d like your help in creating GenAI solutions that will deploy Open Platform for Enterprise AI (OPEA) samples across these deployment targets. Write the code and instructions for other developers to be able to repurpose. Help us add more docs and clean existing ones. Map out use cases for different industries.
Open issues to include:
  • Deployment to compute platforms
    • CloudFormation templates to deploy samples on AWS
    • Terraform templates for all samples across AWS, Azure, Google, Cloud, and Oracle Cloud
    • Ansible script to deploy samples to OpenShiftAI
  • Validation and hardening of OPEA samples with
    • LangChain
    • LlamaIndex
    • Haystack
  • Use case development
  • Deployment automation scenarios
  • Documentation creation and editing
We expect more right up until the start of the event! Check out the latest list here labeled ‘OPEAHack’ and add your own – let me know when you do and I’ll label appropriately so that we can be sure to include it in the festivities (rachel.roumeliotis@intel.com)

OCTOBER

GenAI Nightmares – October 31st, 2024, 12PM PT – 3PM PT

Enter if you dare…this won’t be your usual community event, no, this time we want to hear what horrors you have come up against in the GenAI world. Has your model drifted to Transylvania? Do you have as much privacy as Frankenstein’s monster in his lab? Are werewolves plaguing your security?

We want to hear these terrifying tales. Send us your stories in this CFP!

Session abstracts should include real life stories and consequences of:

  • A lack of AI governance
  • No realistic business use case
  • Poor data quality
  • Privacy and security issues
  • Choosing the wrong LLM
  • No model transparency

We will choose and announce sessions on September 30th.

We will also announce Hackathon winners at this scary get together.
