Session: Could a Co-Pilot be an Aircraft Co-Pilot Welcome aboard, fellow travelers! In this talk, we’re strapping on our metaphorical aviator goggles and diving into the cockpit to explore the fascinating world of AI Co-Pilots and could they and more importantly should they be used in a real world flight deck? Buckle up, because this flight is about to get bumpy—in a purely intellectual turbulence kind of way. Using aircraft incidents and accidents we will see if an AI Co-Pilot would have saved the day... If you have a fear of flying maybe skip this one but I will say before you run out that none of the accidents are fatal so nothing to be scared of.... You don't need to be an AI specialist or even know anything about it, as we are just exploring the decisions pilots have to make in very limited timescales with limited information and throwing in some human factors to spice it up a bit. These are all good skills you can use in any decision making at work. The aim of this session is to hopefully show you that AI can help but should we use it? You will walk away knowing a bit about AI and have some fun geeking out on aviation. 14:45 - 15:10 Speaker 7 - Ayca Bas - Senior Cloud Developer Advocate@Microsoft Session: RAG and Knowledge Retrieval Fundamentals In this session, we are going to talk about what is Retrieval Augmented Generation and why It’s a Game Changer.
