Performant Architecture for a Fast Gen AI User Experience

More and more developers are being asked to build Generative AI experiences into their web applications everywhere. However, the user's experience with Generative AI can sometimes be slow and frustrating. It’s been years since we would gladly wait over 10 seconds for a response to anything online. As AI processing gets faster, there are new limiting factors that could be negatively affecting your AI user experience.

In this talk, we will cover different ways to minimise laggy experiences in web applications when interacting with third-party Generative AI tools. We’ll be using a practical demonstration to show how you can reduce latency as we build one of my favourite sci fi gadgets, the babel fish.
