Elixir as the Language of Choice for Large Language Models

In his talk, Sean Moriarty explores the current landscape of large language models (LLMs) and their transformative potential in technology. He identifies the unique challenges associated with developing LLM-powered applications, such as handling non-deterministic outputs and orchestrating external services. Moriarty argues that Elixir's capabilities, such as fault tolerance and the ability to build reliable applications, make it well-suited for LLM-powered innovations. Additionally, he touches on the possibility of self-hosted LLMs versus outsourcing to external APIs and suggests that Elixir has the potential to support the development of in-house LLM solutions. Moriarty believes Elixir is the language of the future for LLM applications, as it can handle the requisite workflows and potentially capture a significant market share in the space.
