Force Multiply Your Technical Delivery with These Non-Technical Skills

Any person in a technical role requires a combination of technical and non-technical skills. Technical skills can be acquired by a wide variety of means, such as getting a degree, earning a certification, or reading a tutorial. Non-technical skills are the personal qualities that define how you interact with others. In a globally distributed and diverse world, these non-technical skills are sometimes more critical and important than technical skills. These skills are needed whether you are a newbie or a veteran in the tech industry, an individual contributor or a manager. They help you to be an effective team player, inspire others in the team, and help make your team more successful. This talk uses personal experiences to illustrate what non-technical skills are, why they are relevant, and what are some of the most important skills to master to create an effective team environment.

Enterprise AI Strategy

Enterprises face a myriad of challenges when it comes to development and deployment of Gen AI solutions. The development of new models, algorithms, fine-tuning techniques, detecting and resolving bias and how we deploy large solutions at scale continues to evolve at a rapid pace. There is a lack of standardized software tools and technologies to choose from. Additionally, enterprises want the flexibility to innovate rapidly, extend the functionality to meet their business needs while ensuring the solution is secure and trustworthy. This talk introduces Open Platform for Enterprise AI (OPEA), a new project under LF AI & Data Foundation. The mission of OPEA is to create an open platform project that enables the creation of open, multi-provider, robust and composable GenAI solutions that harness the best innovation across the ecosystem. You will learn more about the mission, how the project is going to solve it, see reference RAG implementations in action, partners, roadmap and how you can join and contribute to this effort.

Consequently, companies are having a difficult time hiring the right talent. Based on his experiences with leading companies, Arun Gupta draws from his latest book and highlights the importance of an open source culture, sharing proven techniques.
