KubeCon + CloudNativeCon has always been the place to explore cutting-edge technology, and our upcoming event in Chicago is no exception. From ChatGPT and Dall-E 2, to Adobe’s Firefly, Generative AI has evolved at lightning speed.

But did you know that Kubernetes was pivotal for OpenAI as they pioneered ChatGPT? The AI movement is here, and it’s powered by cloud native.

Get ready to immerse yourself in the AI movement – join us for a host of insightful AI-focussed events throughout KubeCon + CloudNativeCon NA:

Kuberentes AI + HPC Day

Monday, November 6

In partnerships with CERN and Bloomberg, this CNCF-hosted co-located event is specifically designed for open source contributors, practitioners, researchers, and end users who want to make Kubernetes the best tool to manage infrastructure for research, training and production use cases. You can see the full schedule here. 

You must have an in-person all-access pass to participate in Kubernetes AI + HPC Day.

AI Hub

Wednesday, November 8

This one day unconference will explore AI topics impacting the cloud native community. LLMs, AI policy, AI operations, AI data governance and more. 

With a keynote from CERN’s Ricardo Rocha, and a demo sharing insights into the world of Transformers and their integration with open-source technologies by Guillaume Salou of Hugging Face, this event promises to be packed with lively, active conversations driven by those leveraging AI in their organizations. The AI Hub experience is included in your KubeCon + CloudNativeCon in-person pass.
