Distinguished Speaker Programme: Building Advanced AI Applications and Agents in One Hour

The RAIT ACM SIGAI Student Chapter presents a Distinguished Speaker Programme on 'Building Advanced AI Applications and Agents in One Hour'. This session focuses on practical application, moving beyond theory and demonstrations to build real AI live.

What makes this session exceptional is its hands-on nature, where participants will go from zero to deployed AI agents using cutting-edge Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in a focused sprint.

Distinguished Speaker: Dr. Mehdi Bahrami Principal Researcher, Fujitsu Research of America (California) Senior Member – ACM & IEEE IEEE Outstanding Engineer Awardee 30+ publications | 34+ US patents Speaker at Stanford, CMU, ACM & IEEE Conferences

Key Learning Outcomes: - Building full-stack AI applications powered by LLMs & VLMs - Design and deployment of intelligent AI agents - Prompting, fine-tuning, and model selection (LLaMA & open-source models) - NLP, Computer Vision, decision-making, and automation - Scalable architectures, efficiency, and AI ethics
