133: Winning the ML Prise

ThinkingElixir.com — Tue, 10 Jan 2023 04:15:00 -0700

We talk with Philip Brown who started Prise in Jan 2022 using Elixir, Axon and Nx to apply machine learning to project management. He shares what he's accomplished as a one-person dev team and how Elixir enabled him to develop more rapidly. He shares how, with no ML academic training, he learned as he went and developed and trained his own models that classify and prioritize people's tasks spread across multiple systems! A fun and empowering discussion!

130: Bumblebee Buzz with José Valim

ThinkingElixir.com — Tue, 20 Dec 2022 04:15:00 -0700

The Elixir community is buzzing with excitement around Bumblebee! Bumblebee makes it easy to use a variety of pre-trained neural network models in Elixir. José Valim, Paulo Valente, and Jonatan Kłosko join us to talk about this latest advancement. We learn how Bumblebee works, the abilities that are supported today, where things are going next and the longer term visions of what's possible. We cover the new Livebook smart cells that create an easy playground for playing with Bumblebee, a single-file Phoenix example that does image classification, and much more!

102: Machine Learning in Elixir with Sean Moriarity

ThinkingElixir.com — Tue, 07 Jun 2022 04:15:00 -0600

Sean Moriarity, the author of Genetic Algorithms in Elixir, lays out Machine Learning in the Elixir space. We talk about where it is today and where it's going in the future. Sean talks more about his book, how that led to working with José Valim which then led to the creation of Nx. He fills us in on recent ML events with Google and Facebook and shows us how Elixir fits into the bigger picture. It's a fast developing area and Sean helps us follow the important points even if we aren't doing ML ourselves… because our teams may still need it.

100: 10 Years of Elixir with José Valim

ThinkingElixir.com — Tue, 24 May 2022 04:15:00 -0600

Our 100th episode is spent with José Valim celebrating 10 years of Elixir. We close out our 5-part series talking about the recent 1.13 release, the upcoming 1.14 release and looking into the future and v2.0. We learn that many features were created with Nx in mind but are still broadly helpful to Elixir developers. José gives a 1-minute explanation of how ex_unit works, explains what usually makes it into a point release, and how adding stepped ranges meant changes to many Enum functions and so much more! In addition to Elixir, we talk about his journey with Dashbit and we end up learning how the song "The Final Countdown" by Europe might actually be teaching functional programming and recursion?? A super packed episode!
