Unlock the power of IBM technologies without waiting for the annual IBM TechXchange conference! Join us for IBM TechXchange Dev Day: Open Source LLMs, where you can take part in hands-on experiences designed for AI developers, data scientists, integration developers, administrators, and engineers. Engage with IBM experts and learn the watsonx platform through instructor-led labs showcasing generative ai-based use cases to benefit your gen AI ecosystem.

At IBM TechXchange Dev Day: Open Source LLMs, you'll learn how to build AI agents and AI assistants during hands-on workshops that delve into generative AI and automation technologies using IBM Granite open source AI models. Whether you're exploring AI-powered coding assistants, developing robust data pipelines and integrations, or pushing the boundaries of generative AI on IBM Z, our sessions provide the insights you need for enterprise AI.

Join Nicholas Renotte, Head of AI Developer Advocacy, at IBM, as he kicks off the Open Source LLMs Dev Day, featuring over 12 hours of AI and open source content to quickly advance your AI journey from experimentation to deployment.

You have your choice of two tracks:

Getting Started with gen AI

AI agents are pushing the boundaries of machine intelligence, combining large language models with dynamic reasoning, planning, and tool use. By orchestrating these components, they can autonomously tackle a wide range of complex, multi-step tasks. Dive into the world of AI agents:

Build your own custom agent
Learn how to troubleshoot performance
Expose your agent via an API

Applied AI

IBM experts will dive into the newly released IBM Granite foundation models, which are designed for the enterprise and optimized for business domains and use cases.

Learn how IBM takes a differentiated approach to delivering enterprise-grade foundation models and delivers an open, multi-model approach to building AI applications through partnerships with Docker, HuggingFace, Meta and more.
