LLM in Production Round Table with Demetrios Brinkmann, Diego Oppenheimer, David Hershey, Hannes Hapke, James Richards, and Rebecca Qian.

// Abstract
Using LLM in production. That's right. Hype or here to stay? The conversation answers some of the questions that have been asked by our community members like; performance & cost of production, the difference in architectures, Reliability issues, and a bunch of random tangents. We have some heavy hitters for this event!
