Saving 10s of thousands of dollars deploying AI at scale with Kubernetes, with John McBride

https://ku.bz/wP6bTlrFs

Curious about running AI models on Kubernetes without breaking the bank? This episode delivers practical insights from someone who's done it successfully at scale.

John McBride, VP of Infrastructure and AI Engineering at the Linux Foundation shares how his team at OpenSauced built StarSearch, an AI feature that uses natural language processing to analyze GitHub contributions and provide insights through semantic queries. By using open-source models instead of commercial APIs, the team saved tens of thousands of dollars.

You will learn:

How to deploy VLLM on Kubernetes to serve open-source LLMs like Mistral and Llama, including configuration challenges with GPU drivers and daemon sets

Why smaller models (7-14B parameters) can achieve 95% effectiveness for many tasks compared to larger commercial models, with proper prompt engineering

How running inference workloads on your own infrastructure with T4 GPUs can reduce costs from tens of thousands to just a couple thousand dollars monthly

Practical approaches to monitoring GPU workloads in production, including handling unpredictable failures and VRAM consumption issues

Cursor vs. GitHub Copilot: AI Coding Showdown!

In this video, we compare two AI coding assistants: GitHub Copilot and Cursor. We'll explore their capabilities in writing code, fixing bugs, and suggesting improvements. From setting up the tools in VSCode to diving into code and test writing, we'll see how each performs in real-time scenarios. We'll also discuss their speed, accuracy, and overall user experience. By the end, you'll have a clear understanding of which AI tool suits your coding needs best.
