Performant Architecture for a Fast Gen AI User Experience

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.

The Anatomy of a Thinking Machine

Daniel Ong - Jan.ai 

With the recent buzz around AI PCs, Nvidia, Windows, Intel have all jumped in with competing visions for how Local AI will work in the future.

In this talk we’ll cover how Local AI works at a software and hardware level, and how the different ecosystems of Nvidia, Windows, Intel, AMD, Qualcomm and more both compete and cooperate to enable Local AI.

Daniel is the founder of the Homebrew Computer Company, which builds tools to run local AI. He is the lead maintainer for:

  • 👋 Jan: an open source desktop AI app with 1mn downloads
  • 🧠 Cortex: a developer library to run LLMs and AI models easily
  • 🏠 Homebrew: high quality, affordable GPU servers for hobbyists and startups

It's pretty common to evaluate new changes with a vibe check but that makes it difficult to really know what's up with your system. We'll talk a bit about how to build more complex apps.
