MLOps at tech events
26 write-ups · 22 events · 2024–2026
This hub gathers talks and conversations about the model lifecycle: training pipelines, evaluation, fine-tuning and running models in production. Across AI_dev, AI Tinkerers, Databricks and community MLOps meetups, the recurring themes are moving from notebooks to repeatable pipelines, and how data platforms and ML tooling fit into one workflow.
