Bringing Machine Learning Capabilities into Elixir with Bumblebee
Jonatan Klosko discussed the Elixir ecosystem's advances in machine learning with the development of Nx for numerical computation and Axon for neural networks. He introduced Bumblebee, which enables Elixir developers to use powerful pre-trained models with ease, aiming to lower the barrier from idea to deployment. Klosko demonstrated how models from Hugging Face can be loaded into Elixir applications, explained the concept of serving pipelines, and addressed optimization for production. He showcased a live demo and emphasized the potential of NX serving for distributed environments, handling resource-intensive machine learning tasks separately from web servers and enabling scaling across multiple GPUs.
