ElixirConf 2023 - Charlie Holtz - Building AI Apps with Elixir

This talk is about prototyping and deploying AI agents with Elixir.

AI agents are all the rage right now. What are AI agents? Imagine a team of specialized AI models helping us with tasks throughout the day. One agent for handling email, one for booking appointments, one for scheduling your meetings, etc. Most people reach for Python to build these tools, but the distributed, functional, and scalable nature of the BEAM + Elixir Agents (funnily enough) is the ideal tool for building these kinds of agents.
