Speakers
Thomas Wolf
Co-founder & CSO
Hugging Face
Thomas enjoys creating open-source software that makes complex research, models and datasets widely accessible (for instance by creating the Hugging Face Transformers and Datasets libraries). When he’s not building OSS libraries, he can be found pushing for open science in research in AI/ML, trying to lower the gap between academia and industrial labs through projects like the BigScience Workshop on Large Language Models (LLM) which leads to the BLOOM experiments, model and dataset.
Mark Heaps
Chief Tech Evangelist & VP of Brand
GROQ
Mark Heaps is a creative force to be reckoned with, with over 20 years of experience and a passion that’s off the charts. He’s worked with the big boys – Apple, Google, Adobe, and more – and has led projects and teams that’ll make your head spin. He’s a published author, and award-winning speaker, and has rocked the stages at Adobe MAX, SXSW, and more. When he’s not igniting the soul of Groq, you can find him in Austin, Texas, with his rad family and their collection of overindulged pets.
