What a journey we've started! From a small group, look at how we've grown. In this meet-up, we'll review our incredible achievements so far. Join in, grab a seat, and let us end the year with a bang! 


We've explored:

  • Data annotation using Label Studio
  • Classification models (predicting bank customer churn)
  • Regression models (predicting insurance costs)
  • Data versioning with DVC & makefiles
  • Data privacy considerations
  • Deployment strategies using Docker
  • Hugging Face fundamentals for rapid MVP development and global sharing.


This session, we'll dive deeper into Hugging Face and provide some highlights of the year. Come ready to participate - there'll be prizes for those who can answer a few questions here and there.
