Uber's Michelangelo: Strategic AI Overhaul and Impact // MLOps podcast #239 with Demetrios Brinkmann. Huge thank you to Weights & Biases for sponsoring this episode. WandB Free Courses - http://wandb.me/courses_mlops // Abstract Uber's Michelangelo platform has evolved significantly through three major phases, enhancing its capabilities from basic ML predictions to sophisticated uses in deep learning and generative AI. Initially, Michelangelo 1.0 faced several challenges such as a lack of deep learning support and inadequate project tiering. To address these issues, Michelangelo 2.0 and subsequently 3.0 introduced improvements like support for Pytorch, enhanced model training, and integration of new technologies like Nvidia’s Triton and Kubernetes. The platform now includes advanced features such as a Genai gateway, robust compliance guardrails, and a system for monitoring model performance to streamline and secure AI operations at Uber. // Bio At the moment Demetrios is immersing himself in Machine Learning by interviewing experts from around the world in the weekly MLOps.community meetups. Demetrios constantly learns and engages in new activities to get uncomfortable and learn from his mistakes. He tries to bring creativity into every aspect of his life, whether analyzing the best paths forward, overcoming obstacles, or building Lego houses with his daughter. // MLOps Swag/Merch https://mlops-community.myshopify.com/ // Related Links From Predictive to Generative – How Michelangelo Accelerates Uber’s AI Journey blog post: https://www.uber.com/en-JP/blog/from-predictive-to-generative-ai/
