As AI technologies like LLMs innovate at an accelerated pace, the importance of robust data foundations has never been greater. Traditional data architectures, designed with apps and APIs in mind, are now being pushed to their limits by the demands of advanced AI applications. This workshop will delve into principles for getting your data ready for AI. One of the main principles is having all your data and business logic under one interface - we will see how to build this using GraphQL (or SQL). We will also see how to incorporate consistent authorization so that your LLM doesn't have to worry about security. Finally, we will plumb all of this together to create a fundamentally powerful data connectivity for your AI applications. To get the most out of this workshop, bring an Anthropic account with some credits and an Anthropic API key. You can also use OpenAI, but Anthropic is preferred.
