You may be interested in creating agents with the Microsoft Semantic Kernel using GPT Assistants for handling complex problem-solving tasks. It uses AI to coordinate the work among multiple assistants. Each assistant has its own persona and tools, operating as separate GPTs. The days of manually managing conversation states and chat threads are behind us. Now, with the support of these assistants, we can have conversations that remember their context. In the next talk I explore how these assistants can interact in three different scenarios: - hierarchical chat agents (interactive chat) - joint chat agents (interactive chat) - agent powered by agents as plugins chat (one prompt chat) For this, I have created four agents, each representing a different hero: Jack Sparrow, Don Quijote, Shakespeare, and Yoda. Additionally, I have a dialogue writer agent that takes a dialogue script and brings these heroes to life. Well, let's see what happens when Jack Sparrow is messing up with Don Quijote!

Utilizing Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines and methodologies has become a customary practice for managing application code over time. However, extending these principles to our cloud Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) presents a compelling opportunity. In this presentation, we'll delve into the adaptation of CI/CD practices to streamline the deployment of our cloud infrastructure. We'll examine the influence of our preferred IaC tool on deployment methodologies, discuss strategies for integrating testing into our pipelines to guarantee the accuracy of deployments, incorporate security measures to uphold compliance and governance standards, and explore various nuances of IaC and CI/CD tools.
Large Language Models (LLMs) are the core of enterprise Generative AI applications. They can process and generate natural language, but they require additional components to handle user interactions, security, and other functionality to respond to or act on user inputs. The collection of these components and services that form a functional solution is called a Generative AI application. A best practice when developing a Gen AI application is to follow a standard AI Lifecycle and embed security at each phase of the AI lifecycle. Implementations must not neglect the basics such as authentication, authorization, protecting customer data, etc., which are required for AI solution just like for any other cloud solution. After we have addressed the basics, there are specific aspects for LLM and Generative AI security requiring special attention. Details vary depending on the implementation and are constantly changing in this fast-growing field, but understanding something about the properties allows us to address specific implementation needs. One way to think about securing it is to view the model as essentially intelligence in a black box that has certain defining characteristics:
• AI models are stochastic/non-deterministic, requiring an engineer to account for them spontaneously failing or being incorrect. In some sense it doesn't matter if the failure is intentional (due to poisoned training data, adversarial input, etc.) or unintentional (the model is not accurate). Engineers need to expect failure, and it is likely best to assume failure in the worst and most spectacular way.
• If you're giving it any data at all, either in the context window (via patterns like RAG) or by fine-tuning the model, it may include/leak data in its response.
Building on these two attributes the session provides security guidance for the phases of the Generative AI lifecycle that will ensure that your AI solution has healthy security posture from the start.
