AI Makerspace Meetup

Sit down to code and discuss how to build AI applications with U of A DataLab scientists.

Put your knowledge into practice through hands-on experience with cutting-edge AI tools. In this workshop series, we will spend an hour each week developing and testing advanced AI topics, including fine-tuning LLMs, creating vector databases for retrieval-augmented generation applications, and implementing distributed training with PyTorch.

Join us in-person at the AI Makerspace Meetups @ Snakes & Lattes.

Where: Snakes & Lattes Tucson (988 E University Blvd, Tucson, AZ)
