CNCF [Cloud Native Computing Foundation] via YouTube
Overview
Explore the emerging trend of WebAssembly (Wasm) as a runtime for Large Language Models (LLMs) in this 28-minute conference talk by Michael Yuan from Second State. Learn why Python-based LLM applications are facing challenges due to performance, size, and complexity issues, and discover how compiled languages like C, C++, and Rust are gaining traction in LLM frameworks. Understand the benefits of using Wasm for LLM applications, including improved efficiency, safety, and performance with a smaller footprint. Witness demonstrations of running Llama 2 models in Wasm and developing LLM agents in Rust for Wasm environments. Gain insights into real-world use cases, such as LLM-based code review and book-based learning assistants, complete with live demonstrations.
