About this event

You've probably heard "embeddings" thrown around in every AI talk. But what are they really? In this session you'll understand what embeddings are and why they'll make your life easier trying to build search and how text becomes a vector, why similar things land close together, and how to go from keyword matching to actually understanding what your users mean.

Alexander Amin, a Google Developer Expert in Cloud and AI, will host a practical workshop on embeddings and how they power today's information infrastructure.

Bring your laptop and join us!
