**About this Webinar**
Join us for an insightful session where you’ll learn to deploy applications powered by large language models (LLMs) using serverless technology.
Explore how serverless architecture simplifies application deployment, eliminating the need to manage infrastructure while ensuring scalability and efficiency.
**Key Highlights:**

* Learn to process audio files by combining automatic speech recognition (ASR) with LLMs.
* Build an automated system that detects customer inquiries, transcribes audio, and generates concise summaries using Amazon Bedrock.
* Discover how to enable logging to enhance security and maintain compliance.

**What You'll Gain:**

* Insights into customizing LLM responses with Amazon Bedrock.
* A step-by-step approach to transcribing audio recordings and summarizing them using LLMs.
* Skills to deploy an event-driven workflow for audio summarization with AWS Lambda.
* A hands-on understanding of using models like Amazon Titan and more through Amazon Bedrock.

**Who Should Attend?**
This webinar is ideal for developers familiar with Python and AWS who are eager to explore quick and efficient deployment of LLM applications using Amazon Bedrock.
**Why Join Us?**
Walk away with the expertise to build and deploy your serverless LLM apps in days, harnessing the power of Amazon Bedrock and AWS services.

**PyDataMCR December Talks**

Continuing with some more great talks we are hosted this month by Krakenflex.

**THE TALKS**

**Beyond Traditional Recommenders: Leveraging Graph Neural Networks for Food Delivery Platforms - [Chris Dambamuromo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisdamba/) (he/him)**

In this talk, Chris will demonstrate how to implement a Graph Neural Network (GNN) based recommendation system for food delivery platforms. Drawing from real-world examples, he'll explore how GNNs can effectively balance the complex dynamics of a three-sided marketplace - customers, restaurants, and delivery partners. The presentation will cover practical aspects of working with limited data, implementing GraphSAGE, and handling multiple optimisation objectives. This independent project represents his exploration of recommendation systems and graph-based machine learning, bringing together his technical expertise and interest in practical AI applications.

Chris is a Data Engineer with over a decade of software development experience, specialising in data engineering and machine learning. With a background in Applied Mathematics and Intelligent Computer Systems, he's passionate about applying advanced AI techniques to solve real-world problems. Currently focusing on recommendation systems and graph-based machine learning, Chris brings practical insights from his experience in both software development and data engineering.

The talk will include code examples and is suitable for data scientists, ML/Data engineers, and anyone interested in practical applications of Graph Neural Networks.

**Building Seamless Pipelines with DBT and Python - [Andy Stafford Hughes](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-stafford-hughes-63b04632/) (he/him)**

I will discuss how we successfully automated testing with DBT and Python in our Data Products team.

Andrew is an Enterprise Data & AI Test Architect with extensive experience in quality assurance across industries like healthcare, gaming, and retail. Currently at AstraZeneca, he is enhancing test automation frameworks for data science and GenAI projects while mentoring teams to improve their automation testing capabilities globally.

**LOCATION**
We'll be at Krakenflex, who are also kindly supplying catering. The capacity is limited to 90.

After the talks we'll all head somewhere local for some post-event socialising.
