In this podcast, Manjot Pahwa, Rahul Parundekar, and Patrick Barker discuss the integration of Kubernetes and large language models (LLMs), the challenges of using Kubernetes for data scientists, and the considerations for hosting LMM applications in production. They also explore the abstraction of LLMs on Kubernetes, the cost considerations, and the pros and cons of using Kubernetes for LLM training versus inferencing. Additionally, they touch on using Kubernetes for real-time online inferences and the availability of abstractions like Metaplow.

Guests Patrick Barker, Founder / CTO of Kentauros AI and Farhood Etaati, Software Engineer at Yektanet, discuss the challenges and skepticism surrounding MLOps and its relation to previous ML models. They explore the potential future developments, the significance of knowledge transfer, and the emergence of persona-specific tools. The speakers also mention building a tool for TypeScript developers and discuss the challenges faced by MLOps engineers.
