Instructor: Colin Swaney, Lead Research Software Engineer, Data-Driven Social Science

Researchers often need to deploy open-source AI models for common tasks such as document digitization, chat completion, audio transcription. This process can be difficult when models are large enough to require cluster computing resources. This workshop introduces Blackfish, a free, point-and-click solution for researchers seeking access to advanced open-source AI models. We’ll demonstrate how Blackfish leverages on-premise computing resources to run common machine learning workflows in a convenient, secure, and reproducible manner.
