SREcon24 Europe/Middle East/Africa - Generative AI: Beyond (Just) Hype

Generative AI: Beyond (Just) Hype
Todd Underwood
Generative AI is one of the most hyped technologies in most of our careers. While it is driving a complete transformation of priorities some tech organizations many engineers remain deeply skeptical about any practical uses of Generative AI.
The skepticism is warranted and the hype is (for now) exaggerated, but not completely without merit. These technologies are not entirely useless for the kind of work we do. In this talk I will highlight a few emerging use cases that sidestep some of the weaknesses of GenAI (hallucination, errors), and still manage to provide value, specifically for production engineering.
